MeisterMuay Thai MMA Ankle Support Wraps (Pair) - Black

I mainly bought these for a proper fit with my ninja boots, but it turns out they are also comfortable to wear around the house. I also imagine this is a huge time saver compared to using a manual wrap.

Great quality support for weak/injured ankles. Perfect fit and a good value for the money.

I bought these for my husband as a stocking stuffer this past Christmas. He is very thankful for them. He has bad ankles that like to roll on him or get sprained whenever he does anything even remotely active. Since he's been wearing these, he's been smiling again after running, playing basketball, or other activities. THAT'S A BIG DEAL! He says that they offer much more support than the ACE wraps he'd been using. The only downside (and it's a small price to pay) is that the white seams at either end of the wraps leave red indentations in the skin after wearing them for even just a half hour. It's not the most comfortable thing in the world, but my husband says it's definately NOT painful.So, we love these. I may get him another pair just for backup.

* It works really great. I enjoy it and use it.* Machine-washable.* So small that you can place them in a standard size pocket folded.* It does help stabilize your ankle; even outside the gym. I know, I've used it this way a few times. It's like a thick wool sock and can get tight if you wear it throughout the day.* However, if you wear it just a few hours, you'll feel some stability from it.* As pictured, it does not protect the toes, so if you kick with your instep (i.e. Side Kick, Roundhouse, etc...) and you use excessive force, you may feel it on your instep.However, if like me, you are training with a bag and kick a bit off (using the ball of your foot), then this will help keep you from feeling too much pain.* They look great and provide decent traction when moving with your whole foot. Shifts of stance done on the balls of your foot have no impact on these and vice versa. However, sliding side, front and other auxiliary kicks that require some dragging on the floor are a tad easier with these on (since they slide a bit).* Finally, these just look awesome in and of themselves (I use them in conjunction with my handwraps so I can utilize soft styles and hard styles during practice) . I am definitely happy with my purchase and I plan to keep them for a long time. I highly recommend them as a more inexpensive and more portable version of sparring footwear, but NOT a replacement (especially for dojos).

It's possible that I reviewed these before, I don't recall. But when I first got them, I didn't like them very much. Now I love them (go figure). They took me some getting used to. I wear them for both arch and ankle support for running. Here's what I don't like about them, or at least, what I had to get used to. The white edging creates a little ridge which can be uncomfortable. I wear them over my socks, that helps a lot, but can pull the sock too tight, so again, a bit of a learning curve. Otherwise, they give me excellent ankle and arch support (much better then the beige Ace product), particularly when combined with proper insoles. At the first sign of plantar fasciitis or ankle pain I put these on and start my stretching, big help there. A word of caution: Do not wash. The washing machine and/or dryer will ruin them. Give them a quick rinse and hang them over the shower, they dry quickly. I only rinse them every few wearings. They last great that way. But if you wash them, you will make the elastic brittle.

Yeah... These are great. I have a size 14 and am 6'0, 150 lbs. I am very slim. These cover about 1/8th of my foot, not 1/2th like in the picture, and a lot more of my shin. In fact, compression? These things are BAGGY. I have size 14 feet (in fairness, granted I have very NARROW feet. I need like a 14 length, 7 width shoe. I always have too much room in my shoe) But yeah, it works, they're attractive, good for the price. Mine did come with a rip on each piece, I can feel it's structurally weaker there... It will likely rip during my intense thai practice 4 times , 6 days a week. It's sized for your average guy.... Not a kickboxer. Tall , lanky guys... this isn't for you so much. This is for big, 5'8 ish guys with size 9 feet with "fat" (large circumference) legs and feet. Because it shows a compression photo? ..... Please.... It's baggy on me. They show it leaving a compression imprint in dudes foot. It can barely stay on my foot. I'm 25 years old, 18 years martial arts experience. BS in science in Biology. Plus, I feel I could get this for $5.99 or tops $8.99 at a store, and it cost me $13.00 something by the time I choose the most basic shipping. (Shipped INCREDIBLY fast) but, If i bought it at a store, I could pick a pair that WASN'T ripped up. Last time I wrote a review about one of my products coming damaged, amazon censored it. I'm not lying, I swear this product came with a rip on one above the ankle, and a rip on the other above the foot part. They are structural rips where it's going to come apart. I do affirm, however, that these are great and definitely good for $8.99. Not so much for $13 something, depends if you count shipping as a "charge" FOR your item or for the service, the shipping was INSANE fast.

I do Muay Thai twice per week, always barefoot. I have had issues with my right arch collapsing, causing calf issues and cramping during training. Got some shoe insoles for boxing, worked and calf problems are no longer a thing. Purchased these for Muay Thai, resolved issues with foot (plantar fasciitis) and calf when barefoot.Would recommend for people who are looking to remain barefoot in training.Wash with my wraps in a small garment washing bag, construction has held up. Even if they only last a year with twice a week usage I would still say they are worth the money.
