Dosh AFO Foot Drop Brace - Drop Foot Brace for Walking - AFO - Unisex (Black)

UPDATE- After talking to my therapist I tried this product with shoes. AMAZING!!! I am much more stable and I feel like I can start walking maybe even jogging again! While it’s not helpful (for me) barefoot the improvement of my walking is a game changer!!!! Original - I had high hopes for this product- unfortunately the buckle closure cannot be adjusted enough to take my foot out of the “drop” position. Honestly I love the low profile and how soft and lightweight it is. Sadly the comfort is useless if the product doesn’t help keep my foot raised. Out of fairness, I’m taking it to my Physical therapist perhaps he can figure out a work around. If so I’ll update.

I love this brace! I first tried another version of this w/ the Velcro instead of the buckle and it proved to not last very long. Once I found this one with the buckle that was a game changer!! So far has lasted I’ve for over a year. The Velcro around the ankle is just now starting to show some signs of where with the strap that goes around that holds it in place just fine.. I have foot drop due to nerve damage from hip surgery I originally bought this type about 4 yrs ago when my son who also has foot dropped due to MS was not able to drive a car with the rigid AFOs. If he does a lot of walking, he brings both the ankle brace for driving the rigid AFO for a long-term walking. He gets a slight more support with the AFO for walking. So it was a no brainer for me to try it and I absolutely love it. I to have a rigid glide AFO that I like, but not for driving or short outings We’ve gained freedom and independence using this brace! It lasts longer than the other brand I was using with just Velcro. I have already purchased about 8 of them so they’re already on various shoes ready to go! I am now gonna try the one you can wear barefoot as I love to be barefoot and I wanna go to the beach. I think this may help me achieve that goal, after reading somebody else’s review! Super excited!!

I had my tibialis anterior as well as the rest of my anterior compartment fully removed, cannot lift my foot or toes whatsoever for the rest of my life. Been using these for about 8 months now ever since I started walking again, and they work GREAT for me, able to work my old job which involves standing, walking, and lifting things all day. Can go for long walks, hike, squat, all types of things that were supposed to be possible. BUT, while it works great for me, it doesn't work great the way they suggest using it. If you only use the strap with the laces clip when you have shoes on, it's far too low on your ankle to lift your foot properly... And if you try to set it higher, it slides down. The way I found to solve this issue and keep it higher up my shin so that it actually holds my foot up, is by taking the portion that's supposed to go around your foot when you're barefoot, and applying that to my leg right above my shoe, then setting the one with the clip ABOVE that and clipping it my laces, that was it stays at a higher position more easily because the other strap is below it holding it up. Though it still slides from this position a bit, it can be solved by wrapping your ankle in gauze (you can find gauze on Amazon for like a dollar per roll) that way both the botton and top strap stick in place better, keeping the attachment point high and therefore your foot fully elevated to 90°. Just don't wrap the gauze too tight and cut off circulation to your foot. Like I said, I'm able to do a lot of things with this product I otherwise wouldn't be able to, and do them well and essentially pain free. BUT, only when used as I describe. Good luck, it gets easier, don't give up if you have drop foot and let it prevent you from doing things, keep working.

Not a very substantial brace but it does work. It would be better if the strap in front was elastic and could stretch but otherwise it is okay.

So far it's working amazingly. I'll be taking a long awaited walk soon and will update afterwards UPDATE: Just walked a full mile with no foot drop issues! I'm super excited that this simple device works like magic! Heel to toe! Finally after years of lifting my knee to clear the ground and getting so tired quickly. I could barely walk 1 block. Im able to wear a regular lace up sneaker again. Also very easy to set up on my shoe. Thank you so much for this product. I'm ordering a second one for my other shoes. If I could just buy the clip device separately that would be even better but until then I'll just buy another set up. If you suffer foot drop..please try this. No more ugly orthopedic shoes or clunky brace!

So this product was recommended through my physical therapist. I have a foot drop and my AFO braces are awesome, but I wanted something less subtle, but this thing is not what it was intended for it did not help me in any way or improve anything. It was a great thought whoever invented it, but it doesn’t work. It did not give me the support I need it.

I bought this brace for my grandma who has drop foot and she’s really happy with the brace, it provides her with a good amount of lift. It’s easy to put on, comfortable and much less cumbersome than the hard plastic AFO brace that she was wearing. Great product for a great price!

Once you can finally get it on it works ok. Using it without a shoe is nearly impossible to get on as the foot sleeve wrap starts and ends at the bottom of your foot, as does the additional velcro strap. This makes it very difficult to do unless you are a yogi. It looks simple but is not. Maybe barefoot without a sock on would make it easier to get on and slide to position, but that limits functionality and comfort.

It isn't worth the high price at all.

fiddly to get on and off, ten minutes of messing around and could not feel any benefit. If you have muscle weakness in your hands you will find the plastic device on the front hard to use. Plus how long is the velcro going to last before you need to replace them - probably a few months at best.

The posting shoes two pieces but the delivery package has only one piece. The purpose of this was to use it barefoot but that is not possible without the underfoot piece.
