Walking Boot and AFO Alternative - RecoverX Brace
DEBRA L. (Norco, CA, US)
Incredible !

I have chronic pain from trauma to my ankle. It is permanent unfortunately and many days I have to resort to wheelchair. My doctor recommended I try Tayco’s boot as I have been using several others with little relief. Since using the Tayco, I have experienced incredible relief from pain when I walk. It’s very light weight which is critical. Other heavier boots have only added to the pain after wearing for even a short period of time. Tayco has been a God-send for sure.

Undershoe strap

Overall, I love the brace. I’m coming off of a 5 year battle with an ankle injury; 4 major surgeries in 4 years. I love that it doesn’t squeeze and swelling doesn’t cause it to strangle my ankle. However, I have serious concerns about the durability of the strap that runs under the shoe, and it does not appear replaceable.

Best Ankle Brace

I struggled to find shoes to fit ankle braces in and none of those options removed the pain in my ankle. They just reduced swelling and supported ankle from twisting. This brace fits on sandals and gym shoes and removes pain in my ankle. Best Ankle Brace EVER!

Patrick Desmond here. I have been a long time user of TayCo Braces, I have the Custom External AFO Brace for both ankles. I have irreparably damaged ankles where no manner of surgery, including ankle replacement, would be effective. I was recommended TayCo Braces several years ago by my Podiatrist and Ortho. The braces have totally changed my life - enhancing my quality of life in a way I could not have imagined possible. Where before, I had very limited mobility and constant pain, I am now, with the TayCo Braces, able to lead a very comfortable life. I walk, golf, travel and am quite active. I wear the Braces, all day - every day, and as a result, I have significantly improved my mobility and I am essentially pain free. I have even bought additional duplicate braces, so I can rotate them to increase their longevity. They wear well and re easy on and easy off, are very comfortable and perform as advertised. The TayCo support staff is professional in every regard - responsive, helpful and courteous. Totally professional product, supported by a totally professional staff.

Patrick, we are beyond grateful for your incredible review. Hearing that our braces have transformed your mobility, comfort, and quality of life is exactly why we do what we do. Thank you for trusting us and for your kind words about both our braces and our team — your story inspires us every day!
