Active Ankle Eclipse II Ankle Brace, Ankle Protection & Sprain Support for Men & Women, Rigid Ankle Stabilizer with Straps, Black, X-Large

It takes a few minutes to figure out how to put it in your shoe when I try to do it that way that they had showed in the video. It didn’t really work well, but once you figure that out, I would also advise to put tape or some kind of gauze padding on the side Below the ankle padding just because it is a really tight snug fit mind you it is supposed to be tight due to it supposed to stabilize your ankle. I’m very satisfied with this product and how I feel confident that I’m not going to roll my ankle along with the added support and stability. Due to two torn tendons this product has not only met my expectations, but surpass them. I will be buying the step down once my ankle starts to heal a little bit more kudos to this product for not only the affordable price, but the fact that it’s high-quality rather than the cheaply made products, we see you on a day-to-day basis And just have to gamble that’ll work. It’s nice to know when a product, especially when it comes to stability and ease that this works as advertised.

Exactly what I was looking for! Side to side stability but still able to flex and point foot. I have had chronic ankle issues for my whole life. I own every type of ankle brace on the market. This one is different. I love trail running but my ankles are not stable enough, I easily twist my ankles. This brace allows me to run without worry of turning my ankles. I use them for running, hiking, HIIT, CrossFit. Building confidence and strength in my ankles while supporting them. Only down side is you have to use the brace with a shoe. Not useful for gymnasts. But for everything else it’s amazing!! Finally a brace that allows me to still move but also prevents turning or rolling of the ankle.

Have tried all the main top-reviewed ankle braces. None are perfect, and it may be worth owning several due to the different characteristics of each.This ankle brace (Eclipse 2) is definitely the best for ankle roll protection. There is no other brace that is as solid against ankle sprains. The Zamst comes close, but is not quite as good, and the ASO brace while definitely adding a lot of sprain protection, is noticeably less protective especially after running a lot where it slightly loosens.The main issue with this one is the comfort, as the hard side posts surrounding the foot (not ankle) can dig into your foot if your foot is a bit wider. I would note that you need to TEST this out with the sport you play - for me, the posts annoyingly dig into the sides into my feet a little while I'm standing or walking but the moment I start running or cutting, enough weight comes off my heel that it is completely fine. I've run on trails for 2 hrs with this thing pain-free no blisters, yet walking 5 mins in them makes me worried about chafing - so you def need to do your sport to see how it does.The hard posts really make a difference if you're playing or running for longer time, like 1+hrs. The ASO and other strapped braces tend to slightly loosen with time, decreasing protection a bit, whereas this one is as protective at the end as the start. This brace is slightly better than even the Zamst for protection. The Zamst doesn't have the issue of post-chafing like this one, but for sure, the posts/hinge setup on this give you the maximum protection possible short of a massive fracture boot.Mobility is surprisingly good with this - no issues with cutting, and no problems with the 'hinge', and weight was not noticeable. I actually think this brace is more mobile than the ASO/soft braces, since you're not relying on strap tightness for protection so the straps are not as tight/restrictive as the soft braces. I have had literally zero mobility issues with this, which I found surprising given the full post setup, and I actually prefer the feeling of greater stability the posts gave.Putting it on is not hard as well. It's not exactly easy, but I'd say easier than most other braces.Aside from the potential fit/chafing issue with the posts on your foot (not ankle), I'd give this 5 stars if it works for you. Again, remember you have to try it doing your sport - walking around with it can confuse the issue since your foot flattens out while walking, and may lead to more chafing as it did with me.

I was sent this… straight out of the box.It is disgusting. Clearly used and covered in dirt and scratches.Honestly I’m super disappointed. I was so excited to wear this to work tomorrow and now I can’t. Waste of time and money.

If you can get it to stay under your foot then it’s fine but I had to add Velcro to inside sole of my shoe and the brace to try and keep it in place. Otherwise OUCH!!!

My ankle had injury and ankle bone size changed a bit bigger. My ankle bone is painful when wears this E2 brace. I bought a T2 brace to compare, I realize E2's hinge and plastic is giving force on my ankle and the decoration ribs causes small movement in between shoes. So I uses knife to cut T2 plastic material of the portion forces on my ankle bone, now it works well for me. I strongly suggest Actice Ankle to refer Zamst A2-DX its saves a room for ankle bone.

I wasn't expecting much when I ordered this. Had broken a bone in my foot and rolled my ankle pretty bad. This allowed me to get back out hiking 4 weeks later. I have had 3 instances in the past few months that I would have re injured my nkle if I hadn't been wearing this brace. I've done 10-12 mile hikes and this brace stands up perfectly. I didn't think it could possibly be comfortable but it is. I'm very happy with the purchase. It's worth it's weight in gold.

Hi, I've been using the brace while playing volleyball for several months now. The support is very good. The brace is also more comfortable than some of the others I've tried. For instance I used a comparable Zamst brace for a while and this one is way more comfortable for me. The Zamst didn't come up as high and dug into the side of my leg.So far I haven't jumped up and landed on anyone's foot. When it does happen I'm confident this brace will save me from being hobbled for weeks.
