ACE Brand Compression Ankle Support, Large/X-Large, Black, 1/Pack

This brace fit very well and comfortable. Not bulky. Wore for support of sprain.

I wanted support around my achilles tendon and ankle for pain and this ACE is more supportive than other ones I have used in the past for a weak ankle. I love it because it is not too tight for walking, which is primarily what I bought it for, but it supports my tendon and ankle much more than just a running shoe alone. It is also very comfortable, and I was able to wear it for 12 straight hours daily without any problems (I wear running shoes with it).I do agree with a reviewer who wrote that this ACE is somewhat difficult to pull on and off, but in my opinion and experience with other similar products, that is always the case. Highly recommend another great ACE product!

Really helps my feet reel better

My exercise routine includes running in place and 10 "squats" after every 75 running steps (touch of left foot). I must do an increasing number of steps & squats within 6 minutes per day - until I reach my goal. I suffered lots of pain in my ankles & knees. After taking a 3 week rest from exercising, I resumed using this ACE product for my ankles, and an ACE hinged knee brace. NOTE: I initially supplemented both with compression wear. For past 3 exercise cycles, I did NOT use supplemental compression, and I have moved fairly close to my goal (fitness level of a 60 year old). Thankfully, there is no more pain, and feel pretty confident that I will be OK using just one ACE ankle product and one ACE knee product. I'm 73 year's old and have always appreciated ACE products.

Maybe I bought this thing for the wrong purpose. I am trying to rehab a high ankle sprain. This thing covers the area that needs to be compressed for this purpose but unfortunately it does not give enough compression. IMO it probably would not be adequate for a low ankle sprain either. It is about like wearing a tight sock. I am keeping it. I will sleep in it and after I no longer need compression I will wear it to remind me to refrain from straining that ankle until it is fully recovered. It is well made and comfortable.

does job well to protect ankle, tight, a little uncomfortbaly when i wear a shoe over it when i step on it when i first put it on but im able to play sports with cleats on and not feel it during the game

My 1st purchase (5 years old) is beginning to show wear & all the stitching is fraying/unraveling. The compression is still very strong. I was impressed enough to buy another one.

Does the job.
