Ultra Zoom Ankle Brace, Black, Small/Medium

I recently purchased two Ultra Zoom ankle braces for my 12 y/o daughter. She has played club since she was 8 years old and plays various positions during school ball, but primarily is setter so she is constantly moving on the court. She also happens to have flat feet. And those flat feet seem to be the issue causing pain and causing her to roll her ankles due to poor anatomical positioning and pronation of her feet. I was hesitant about buying these for her after reading the reviews and visiting the website and not seeing anything in regards to flat feet so I decided to call the company in hopes of getting answers to my questions and I was pleasantly shocked that someone actually answered the phone! I spoke with Rick (who was extremely helpful) and he not only answered my questions but assured me that the Ultra Zoom has excellent results in athletes who have flat feet. He also stated that he has personally worked with various athletes from various ethnic backgrounds who are prone to flat feet and pronation of the feet and the Ultra Zoom has helped them tremendously. So, after my conversation with Rick I decided to buy them for my daughter. She really likes them!!! She said the first day wearing them was a little uncomfortable due to "breaking them in" but after that they have been great. No complaints from her. She says they give her the support she needs and don't allow her ankles to roll out of place. As her Mother, I am happy when she can play a game she loves without seeing her in pain! A great investment that my daughter will use for years! **** The Ultra Zoom are lightweight and very flexible. They fit well with my daughter's shoes but my daughter prefers a wider shoe because of her flat feet. (She wears Asics)Shipping was super fast with Amazon Prime and the packaging was sufficient. Be sure to check out the video on YouTube on how to apply the braces and useful tips. Here is that link- [...]

I rolled my ankle (pronated) while playing basketball. This ankle brace gives the right kind of support and helps to strengthen your ankle as well. I haven't tried to play ball yet, but I have played ping pong with the brace and did not feel restricted by the brace BUT I did feel the support it gave to my ankle. I will be playing ball with the brace tomorrow and am excited to see how it performs. Only one suggestion is to cut the plastic around the heal down a bit as it gets really difficult to get your shoes on and off with the plastic surrounding your heal. I have cut the plastic but still get all the support I need with a more comfortable time taking my shoes on and off! Still a 5 start product though!

I just put the ankle support on my ankle and I feel immediate confidence. I have a grade 2, nearly grade 3 tear to my delta ligament. It’s been 3 years and I don’t have great stability in the ankle so I’m always thinking about what I’m doing and limit certain activities for fear of completely blowing the ligament or causing injury to the tendon. With this support I feel like I can now hike and do other activities now that the ankle is supported and the brace will help prevent further injury. I just bought new athletic shoes designed for ankle support. I was afraid the brace may not work since the shoes have the elastic laces, not tied. I thought I may not be able to open the shoe enough to get the brace in, but it worked with a little patience and getting my toes in as far as I could before trying to get the heel in. A light pinch of the heal part of the brace and it worked well. I also love that this brace has both leg and foot straps to secure the brace well. Sizing seems accurate. I live in the tropic so my ankles can swell in the heat at times, like today. Puffy or not, the brace always fits. The brace does add a little bulk that could stretch out certain shoes over time so I would recommend having separate shoes for the brace and for those without if your shoe material could be stretched by the extra bulk. Overall, I am extremely satisfied.

Anckle roll is my Olympic sport and I win gold every single time. I've twisted my anckle really bad yesterday at work. It's pretty supportive, tho the padding is...almost none. (Bought the one with one strap on the anckle, one on the foot) I DO NOT recommand to wear with work boots(maybe a higher model) as it hurts more. Make sure you do not wear it with expensive shoes. The back of the foot plate is quite large and sharp and it damages the inside everytime you put your shoe on/off. Over all, for an anckle that's already twisted, 10/10 I recommend. I will wear it at work when it's healed to see if it does prevent anckle roll. (I'm the perfect tester, my anckles are terribly weak for some reason)
