VelpeauAnkle Stabilizer Brace for Sprain, Ligament Injury (Grade 1 to 2), Tendonitis, Adjustable Stirrup Ankle Support Splint for Women and Men,Reversible Left & Right Foots,One Size(Foam Pads, Blue)

If you sprained your ankle don't think it twice, get it. You will thank me later.

It works great to stabilize my ankle

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Uncomfortable no matter how much I adjust it. Can't find a spot where it works with out rubbing

It is nice and supportive. I wish I would have ordered the one with foam inserts instead of the gel. The gel is great for cooling, but does not work as well with walking and shoes.

This helps stabilize calf, not really ankle. The gel when frozen, burned my skin.like freezer burn

I never ever write reviews even though I say I am going to but this time I decided to. I bought this brace because I got one almost exactly like it from urgent care, however it had the "freezable" gel inserts and it was the most uncomfortable thing because of the gel packs. I decided to give this a try and I couldn't be happier. I found that I had to play around with it especially the stirrup part to get it adjusted to where it felt comfortable but once I got it to where it was comfortable for me I have not taken it off. I actually for the first time slept in a brace all night long. I found also that the stability that it provides me came from getting the stirrup feeling just right. Highly recommend. I should add that I was also questioning it because I usually am one to only purchase it if 4.5 stars has at least -usually because I have many different options. But I am so glad that I took the chance because it was well worth it!

I never thought I'd ever have weak ankles but in the last few years, I've rolled my ankles a lot. It's even more painful than a break-I know because I've had a broken ankle. So, when I'm doing a lot of walking, I use these. I have two because I've rolled both ankles. You don't have to worry about getting a left or right side as these braces are convertible which is what I have done. I have other braces but these are by far one ones I prefer. They fit in whatever shoe I'm wearing. I advise cleaning them every so often so that the inner padding keeps its grip (I wear them without socks-they are comfortable enough to be able to do that and not rub.) I won't advise as to what to use because I use alcohol and don't know how it will affect them long term.

Needed it temporarily for my ankle. Worked well to stabilize it so I could walk. I think it could be used for either leg.
