Question 1

Will these be able to fit under a sock?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I wear mine under my socks.  Under crew type socks thick or thin, no one even knows it’s there.  I have mobility with stability.

Question 2

Is this good for sprained ankles?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  My Orthopod was happy to see that i put myself into this Tommy Copper Ankle Sleeve.  I’d been wearing that “wonderful” Orthopaedic boot for two months.  I sprained my reconstructed ankle.  This a great product.  I saw a negative review and I’m not sure what or why.  It’s been a godsend.  It gives great support. Just remember,  It is a sleeve and not a brace.  These are true to size.

Question 3

I wear a size 8.5 or a 9 but my ankles and feet are very thin and bony. What size should I get?

Accepted Answer

You are the same shoe size as myself, and also have thin ankles and feet along with a thin body frame. For me, they were far too wide at the ankle in particular and provided little to no compression. I don't know if washing in hot water would help but I'm returning these and trying a small. I compared a sleeve I purchased previously with the new ones I received and the new ones (medium) are about 15mm longer (0.6 inches), 20mm (0.8 inches) wider at the top, and 10mm (0.4 inches) wider at the foot end. For me, they are baggy. My injured side has an even thinner ankle and calf due to bone and muscle loss from multiple surgeries and fusions, but the sleeve is also baggy on my good leg. Unfortunately, I cannot tell from my prior orders what size sleeve I purchased as that info isn't provided on Amazon's receipt (they only provide size for the last order). I have written to Profect to see if width has changed but my guess is I got a small previously. I do wish the size I got previous (presumably a small) was slightly longer to cover up higher but I can't use the mediums so guess I'm stuck.

Question 4

How often should I replace the ankle brace?

Accepted Answer

I'm assuming you're wondering how long it will last. I've had my pair for about three months, worn them during strenuous workouts many times, washed them just as often, and so far no sign of wear at all. I am VERY happy with these braces. I anticipate at least a year, maybe more, of heavy use before any issues appear.
