If you're recovering from a sprained ankle or battling chronic instability, the AFTR™ Ankle Brace is ready to support you. The faster you get compression on a sprained ankle the faster the recovery time will be.

This lightweight brace slides on easily—even over swelling—and provides secure compression around the ankle joint.

This version of the AFTR has a rigid stabilizing strap that protects the the ankle from rolling to the outside or inside of the ankle.

Designed to move with you, the AFTR™ is slim enough to fit in most shoes and tough enough to support daily activity, from errands to exercise. Trust it for recovery, protection, and everyday confidence.

This version does NOT have cooling gel pads on the inside.

    Great for volleyball

    Posted by Janet

    My 15 year old daughter wears these for playing school and club volleyball. they are comfortable and supportive while still allowing her freedom of motion. My only complaint is that the velcro on the straps wears out relatively fast, so I'm glad I can just purchase relatively straps

    Love the brace

    Posted by Linda urban

    This brace doesn't dig into my skin like the other one did leaving cuts. It is very comfortable, fits in any shoe, helps stabilize my ankle, and is very soft. Would highly recommend and have already.

    I am a PA that has worked in the Orthopedic field for 15 years and have seen, and personally used, a variety of ankle braces over the years. I am recovering from an ankle fracture and was released to full weight bearing. Looked at A LOT of braces online. I bought the AFTR to help with stability so I could get back to hiking ASAP! It has been everything the manufacturer promises. Comfortable, easy to put on, offers stability and breathes. I have worn it for as long as 14 hrs without any issues. I'm back to hiking without a worry with my AFTR!

    These work great

    Posted by Vball mom

    Our daughter was recovering from an ankle sprain and was afraid she would miss part of her middle school volleyball season. A rigorous rehab program along with the AFTR braces helped her get back on the court within two weeks. She's still going strong for club season with no issues. She was uncertain of them at first, but quickly got used to them and says they are comfortable to wear. She leaves them off for conditioning and ankle strengthening exercises.

    I bought this for my daughter whom has had ankle issues playing soccer. She has tried different braces and this one seems to be the most comfortable. Her other brace was rubbing up against her ankle bone and causing discomfort. The AFTR brace supports her ankle well. So far she has not sprained her ankle while wearing the brace.

    The sock and strap configuration gives good ankle support. It may look complicated, but it's easy to put on and feels very solid. I thought the velcro patch was becoming loose after just a couple uses, but it's fine. Perhaps it doesn't adhere well when it's a little damp after washing.

    Broke my ankle last year and I am still cautious with some activities and this has been great support without a restriction of movement.

    Very Good for Arthritis Pain

    Posted by TL

    I ordered this brace from Amazon. At first I was not sure it would be comfortable because with the straps I had tightened too rigidly. But I gave it another try the next day without the straps and found comfortable support without pain. Later I tried the straps on and kept them moderately tight and my foot adapted and was helped more when I needed more firm support. The material seems very good quality. Will try some of their other products. They seem to have very good customer service.

    My daughter broke her leg through both bones and growth plate in ankle. This brace allowed her to return to play (soccer) with confidence and no pain. It is also very comfortable. She never quit wearing it - even after she no longer needed it.

    I can't bear to walk without my braces on

    Posted by Jena

    The pain in my feet is unbearable without these braces. I even sometimes sleep in them. They reduce my pain so much, that I rarely notice discomfort. This is an excellent product. My one complaint is that the brace material stretches out too quickly. I start to feel my pain increase after about 6 weeks. I can't afford to buy a new pair every 6 to 8 weeks. So, I have to continue to wear the pair I have until they loosen so much that the pain is once again unbearable. I wish that there was way to tighten the material around the foot as it looses its efficacy.

COMPRESSION SPEEDS RECOVERY
Medical-grade compression has been shown to increase circulation and reduce inflammation. Use this sleeve with targeted compression to support the ankle joint and relieve pain while your injury heals.

SLIM ENOUGH FOR MOST SHOES
In order to make an extremely comfortable and functional ankle brace, we knew we had to make it slim enough to fit comfortably in the shoes you wear on a daily basis. The brace is designed to hug your foot and ankle and slide into most athletic shoes and sandals easier than a standard lace-up ankle brace.
 

TRIM FOR A CUSTOM FIT
Everyone’s feet are different,which is why a one-size-fits-all ankle brace is a terrible idea! We made the base sleeve fabric entirely trimmable to make sure your ankle brace fits your foot perfectly. We recommend trimming the end of the brace to hit the ball of your foot for the most comfortable fit. You can also trim the wraparound flaps and the top of the brace for even more customization.

Testimonials

★★★★★

I recently bought a knee brace from Bioskin. The service was amazing. Kelly was pleasant, helpful, and very patient. She wanted to make sure I got the best brace that would work for me. She never made me feel rushed. She wasn't sure I had the best brace and she consulted with Angela. Angela was knowledgeable, informative, and also very patient. The brace was helpful, but unfortunately it was too tight after working all night. They exchanged it the following day without any hassle. I highly recommend Bioskin and would definitely use them again if needed.

Staff very helpful and we had to call a head to see what time they closed because we had drive across town and because it was almost 4pm we called them at 3:40pm and my daughter really needed a hand brace because she just found out she is a high risk pregnancy and has pregnancy induced carpal tunnel so she really needed a brace so we called and they said they closed at 4pm but because we had to drive there they stayed open till we got there and she was able to get her brace. THANK YOU FOR BEING SO HELPFUL AND KIND.

Went with wife for her bone-on-bone knee issues. Angela and Terri were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and so nice. They identified two that best fit my wife's description of issues and after fitting them, she chose the one that was best for her. They stand behind their products...if you need a brace, this is the place.
