Zamst A2-DX Sports Ankle Brace with Protective Guards For High Ankle Sprains and Chronic Ankle Instability-for Basketball, Volleyball, Lacrosse, Football-Black, Right Small

This brace is absolutely worth the investment. After my son’s ankle injury last fall—caused by lingering instability from previous injuries—his podiatrist pointed us to this exact brace. He even mentioned that a well-known professional basketball player relies on it, which gave us extra confidence right away. And it delivers. The design is impressive—the material and rivets allow natural up-and-down movement while locking in serious lateral support to prevent the ankle from rolling. It strikes that rare balance between mobility and protection, which is exactly what my son needed to get back in the game. If there’s one drawback, it’s that it’s not the easiest to put on. Younger athletes may need help getting it tight enough for proper support. Still, for performance, stability, and peace of mind, this brace is a standout.

I purchased this ankle brace when I sustained a grade 2/3 high ankle sprain with an inner & outer ankle sprain. Not fun. I needed something that would provide a good bit of support when I was finally able to put weight on the ankle. This brace definitely fits the bill. It has allowed me to be able to drive even when I can't, as of yet, walk unassisted on my ankle. It provides good stability for the ankle which means I don't have to be as concerned about reinjuring my ankle during the healing process. I have a small ankle, so I generally have difficulty finding an ankle brace the fits properly. This brace is great as it's highly customizable. It comes with pads that can put used inside the brace which I didn't need. It slides onto the foot. There are two velcro strips that allow the brace to be fitted to the ankle area. In the front, there are 2 double elastic strips that are stretched and attached to the brace with velcro. This allows you to adjust the tightness of the brace. Finally, there is the stiff plastic portion of the brace. The velcro strip wraps around the brace/ankle. It is this piece that provides the rigidity for the brace. This portion pivots at the ankle joint. This ankle brace is more bulky than a more traditional lace-up brace, but it provides more support, comfort, and customization. It's been perfect for my long recovery process.

I got this to use to transition out of the walking boot after I severely (grade III) sprained my ankle. It feels just as supportive as (if not a little more than) the walking boot. It's far superior to other neoprene ankle supports (and believe me I've used many over the years with weak ankles). It's high quality and does the job. This brace offers my healing ankle a lot of stability with the rigid plastic supports on either side with a decent amount of compression and the right amount of flexibility. It's highly adjustable and easy to put on - you slide your foot in from the back then have adjustment in the straps that cross in front of your ankle, the piece that comes up around your heel, the part around your lower calf and then the final strap that secures the rigid sides. It also comes with a couple extra padding pieces to use where you need them. It's easy to adjust if your foot/ankle is still swelling some and swells through the day - it's a quick velcro adjustment. The fit feels super secure also due in part to the fact that these are designed to be more anatomically correct and worn on one side only (you buy a right or a left). The downside is that while this offers more support, it is a little bulky and does not work with all shoes. BUT you can wear shoes instead of being in that off-kilter walking boot. It's not perfect, but this is one of the better ankle supports I've found and used. I don't like that I need it, but I'm happy enough for it, I'd probably pay twice the price and still feel like I got a good deal.

A great product. It's a little hard to figure out how to wear the first time, but once you are familiar with it, it is quick to assemble and take off. It's a little tight in a shoe if your shoe is already snug, so that's something to be aware of. If you buy one for each ankle, it is a good idea to go up half a size on the shoes you wear with them. If you wear for basketball, the Steph Curry shoes are already designed to use braces like this, so that is also something to keep in mind.

This brace has great support, but was very uncomfortable in a shoe. I walk for work & it rubbed at my arch, and finally had to remove it.

I had an old ankle dislocation which I recently re-dislocated. No fracture. I just got this brace and it will take a little break in time for proper fit. But it is excellent stability for severe lateral sprains. I feel comfortable walking in it and knowing I am not going to turn my ankle. For me, this may be a life long product because I am 65 and no longer a competitive athlete. So I don’t want a ligament reconstruction. I’m very happy to have found such a quality product for the price. PS. I’m an orthopedic surgeon.

Perfect for any injury it's a cold ice pack that's soft

Received used item, full of human hair. Seems flimsy, small sis wat too big.

Cette chevillère est conforme à la description et efficace. Bon produit pour mon problème de cheville. Léger et confortable. Je conseille.

I find this unacceptable.

Questo prodotto lo sta usando mio figlio per giocare a basket ed è molto soddisfatto per la stabilità che gli dà in contemporanea ad una grande agilità nei vari movimenti ( cambi di direzione, salti e così via), da consigliare soprattutto a chi fa sport anche agonistico come lui....ottima relazione qualità/ prezzo.

Recibí el pedido en tiempo, y una vez que aprendí a ponérmelo correctamente (Por suerte hay instrucciones !) es genial ! Protege perfectamente mi tobilla, y me permite una muy gran libertad de movimiento. He tomado una talla S siendo una chica, incluso si soy alta y me queda perfecto.

I purchased this a couple of months ago and am loving it. It provides the stability I need to walk without a cane—OK, I still need the cane sometimes. The entry from the rear makes it very easy to put on and take off. I bought a small (left), and it fits very comfortably. I would recommend this brace.
