This is perfect for my “drop foot” after my second knee replacement surgery!

I wish this came with, or the company offered extra Velcro straps to use with this.Both straps that came with this are now all separated and so now hard to use.This is the strip that goes from the laces to the ankle brace. Wish these were stronger and more durable. Or at least allow to purchase more strips so as not to be able to use this.

Purchased five different types and this one was the best. It tightened properly on ankle and stays put, and the buckle strap was the best for quick adjusting. Used 3 others for months before buying this one and it is better than the rest.

It has helped

I have moderate foot-drop on my left foot resulting from a herniated disk in my back damaging the nerves that I use to lift my foot, lift my toes. I can curl down my foot and toes but I cannot lift them. This means when walking my left foot can drag, and I can stumble and fall further injuring my back. I've tried a variety of expensive medically-provided braces as well as a couple other types from amazon. This one keeps my toes in the proper configuration when walking such that they do not drag and I do not stumble - I even tried dragging my toes and it was difficult to accomplish when wearing the brace. It is simple, light weight, and works to prevent foot-drop. Normally my foot drops down, and also to the left, with the brace on I can walk normally, and I don't have to lift my foot higher than normal to avoid obstructions when wearing the brace, I can just walk as normal. I do feel like it will cause sweating where it touches the skin, which is reasonable considering the benefit. I have only tried it using one shoe with laces, I have not tried it with other shoes, I figure it will take some minor adjusting for each shoe type since I use regular tennis shoes sometimes, trail runners other times. It will not work with a hiking boot probably as there is no room for the ankle portion of the brace, but low-rise hiking shoes should be fine too. I can't wait to get back to the trails now that I feel safer and less likely to stumble and fall.

Not effective

I am so happy I found this product. I am 37 years old and extremely active. I work full time, and have a 3 year old and a 1 year old to keep up with. I had an accident last year resulting in a lower back herniated disc, and 2 back surgeries last summer. I woke up from the second back surgery with severe foot drop. I am doing so much better overall, but the foot drop has been improving incredibly slowly. I hated the clunky, uncomfortable, and expensive AFO I got at the hospital from day one. I ordered the Saebo Step (also expensive) a few months ago and it was working well, but I was frustrated because it only works with a limited number of shoes (you need to put special screws in your shoes, which are not easy to rotate to other shoes, and are expensive to keep ordering).So on a whim I decided to order this brace, feeling like there was a small chance this inexpensive brace would work well. I am so happy to report that it is working great for me. I can wear it under my jeans, it is soft and comfortable on my ankle (more comfortable than my other braces), and most importantly, it lifts my foot enough that I can walk on any terrain, for miles. I just took a trip and logged 16,000 steps on my Fitbit in one day, wearing this brace all day.I've read all the reviews for this brace, and it looks like it doesn't work for some people. I think if you're curious if this would work for you, give it a try, because you may be like me and it will work perfectly. I also should say that I've found a double loop works best for me (you can kind of see in the picture).To everyone dealing with foot drop, I feel your pain, because this ailment is super annoying. I hope this product works as well for you as it does for me.
