Overview
Strapping over the outside of a cleat or sneaker is how the TayCo AthleticX braces the ankle. A Kevlar reinforced stirrup wraps under the shoe, and a nylon shell with neoprene padding resists side to side rolling while still letting the foot point and flex.
Bracing outside the shoe gives a wider base against rolling and leaves room inside the shoe. The downside is visible bulk and a heavier feel than a sleeve. Fit is set by shoe size, and this listing is the small size.
Who it's for
Field sport athletes and hikers returning from sprains get strong side support without losing forward flex. People who dislike bulk or wear tight dress shoes should look at a sleeve.
Pros and cons
- Strong sideways support
- Allows forward flex for running
- Kevlar stirrup adjusts to shoe width
- Wide size range
- Bulky outside the shoe
- Hand wash only
- Single brace per listing
Performance notes
The stirrup and shell anchor to the shoe, which resists the inward and outward roll behind most sprains. Freedom in the forward direction lets running and pushing off feel natural, and a snug strap prevents slipping.
