Comfort and Fit

Pros:

  • "This is the only wrap, compression support I've found that is comfortable, doesn't cut off my circulation and leave other swollen looking areas on my foot/leg."
  • "Was just as promised…Fit perfectly comfortable."
  • "This brace is easy and perfect and fits into my shoes so much easier."
  • "Very easy to wear and really helps stabilize my ankle."
  • "Love this ankle support. It is the best and easiest to use."
  • "It’s so easy to put on and take off."
  • "This ankle brace is very easy to put on! It has 4 adjustable Velcro straps for easy attachment."

Cons:

  • "If you are an adult male and your ankle is still swollen, this product is going to be too small."
  • "The Velcro rubs a lot and the brace is pretty uncomfortable, need to wear a sock under it."
  • "The hole for the heel of my foot is too small, in my humble opinion."
  • "But, there is a slight design flaw. There is a ridge on the heel that can become very irritating and painful after just a short time wearing the brace."
  • "The design is flawed—there is no way to wear this that would eliminate the excess fabric bunches below each ankle."
  • "I am unable to truly comfortably wear this with a sneaker due to the thick and bulky nature, so ended up having to wear flip flops."
  • "The brace has a super tiny heel hole... it didn’t seem like this would create good support."

Support and Compression

Pros:

  • "It absolutely does help with ankle pain and issues."
  • "These supports provide just the right amount of compression and are thin enough to wear with most shoes."
  • "It is a velcro stick so you can adjust it to the tightness that you need for the ankle or foot."
  • "Feels secure while wearing and the cross positioning of the velcro gives good pressure in the ankle area which is usually sore due to facciia pain."
  • "Easy to adjust, good support, great compression."
  • "Liked the sturdy construction and 3 sets of supporting straps that provide a comfortable fit and excellent support for my ankle joint."
  • "This product is easy to use and provides much more support than an ace bandage."

Cons:

  • "This foot brace was flimsy and the Velcro didn't stick very well. I would not buy this again."
  • "The brace was good support, but he didn't feel comfortable wearing it with shoes, so he ended up wearing crocs for most of the time."
  • "But this thing is rather bulky, you need to have a pair of really loose shoes if you plan to walk any distance."
  • "However, after an hour or two of wearing it, it starts to hurt the heal."
  • "The support was very good but the brace itself is too bulky to wear comfortably in running shoes."
  • "This ankle supports did nothing to keep the pressure off the pain in my ankle."
  • "This wrap still allowed my ankle to roll as if I were not wearing anything."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "This isn't my first BODYPROX ankle brace. They last pretty well."
  • "Material is good quality. Easy to place on foot & ankle."
  • "This product looks good on your foot and ankle, and provides some support. It seems like the material wares well and will hold up well depending on how often you wash it."
  • "Velcro is stiff and sticks well. My first time wearing a brace and after wearing it almost 24/7, it is as good as new."
  • "The Bodyprox velcros in place and holds its support all day."
  • "Been using for 5 months now and has held up playing pickleball which is saying something considering how much sasquatch pressure is being applied for hours at a time."
  • "I've also thrown it in the washer and the Velcro is still just as strong."

Cons:

  • "I bought this Ankle brace about 3 months ago. I recently ordered a new one to replace the old brace since the Velcro no longer holds."
  • "Hook and loop ('Velcro') wears out extremely fast and then this otherwise good brace will no longer stay on your foot."
  • "Hasn't even been a month and already the stitching is coming apart."
  • "I have not even used this ankle brace for a week and it has already fallen apart."
  • "It just do not last long It starts to tear. Best to wash by hand and air dry."
  • "The problem is that the opening for the heel is really small and hurts."
  • "I just had to replace my braces and I had my past pair for about a year and they lost their elasticity around the year mark so they weren't helping me very much at that point so I had to replace them."

Design and Aesthetics

Pros:

  • "It’s too thick for shoes but it’s really helpful after working on your feet all day."
  • "I like that the material is lightweight, making it breathable and I can easily wear it in my shoe too."
  • "This ankle brace looks intuitively excellent like it would work that's why I bought it. It exceeded my expectations."
  • "This provided great support for small feet Easy to wash and velcros were strong and sturdy."
  • "Now that I have cut it, and it is no longer painfully digging into my foot, this is the perfect ankle brace."
  • "This one will accommodate a larger foot, I'm 7-1/2W in women's shoe size. Velcro is very strong."
  • "It’s not too bulky to fit in a shoe."

Cons:

  • "But it would be nice if it was just a little thicker so it's firm and can provide better support."
  • "I only wish it were available in beige to be less noticeable."
  • "The only negative about this is that the velcro squeaks while moving."
  • "There are NO instructions on how to clean this thing! Can it be machine washed? If so, instructions?"
  • "It smells awful though, and does not breathe well. Will leave your foot extra sweaty."
  • "The Velcro tabs on this sleeve rested directly on my incision lines."
  • "I had to cut the thing in half to just wrap one piece around my ankle, otherwise, the hole at the bottom upon which you're walking is very painful."
