I have been using the Tayco brace for 2 weeks and it has been a game changer for me. I went from boot to no boot, and had issues and a small reinjury. The Tayco brace gives me perfect lateral support and has allowed me to rehab while being safely mobile. I am thankful for this brace!!!
After a year of Non Weight bearing and finding out my ankle is trash I struggled to do the things I wanted. Physical therapy helped strengthen my foot and ankle, however it was inevitable for my ankle to roll with any misstep. From my 1st time wearing it I noticed a huge Inprovement in stability and found it quite comfortable. I would definitely recommend to my friends and family.

For stability this brace works as or maybe better than my custom in shoe brace. The only thing it doesn't help with is my Achilles pain. Other than that it worked well while I was training my beagles in the field.
