Review on πŸƒ Medium-Sized DonJoy Speed Support with Stabilizing Attributes by Kris Martin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doctor recommended but bulky and skin irritant

I ordered this as per the doctor's instructions after spraining my ankle. I did not seek any real intervention as the initial X-ray (ER) showed no broken bones. After 3 months the pain was still painful and the foot/ankle specialist took another x-ray (multiple views) and this time showed a healing fracture. I also had a torn ligament. I ordered a small which was probably too big for me, I have small bones / 115lbs. I had to really tighten the laces and velcro straps. If you don't wear socks with him, he rubs your skin from the inside. It's quite stable, but a bit uncomfortable. It's also chunky, I couldn't wear it with urban leather Ecco lace-up sneakers or Brooks sneakers. The only shoes I could wear it with were the fairly wide Supergas, so they worked the same as some Vionic flip flops. I think this is more suitable for me, but after a few weeks I went back to the doctor and he told me that I feel better.

Pros
  • Braces, splints and braces
Cons
  • Slightly torn
