Easy-On Sports Brace - AthleticX Brace
Thomas B. (Ann Arbor, MI, US)
Excellent Brace!

I have peroneal tendinitis and have tried at least a half dozen ankle braces, but none have given me the support I needed to take force off my ankle. I have been wearing my Tayco brace for a week. (Initially, strap 1 was too short, but customer service was incredibly responsive in getting me a replacement.) It is easy to put on and take off, and I feel much more secure wearing it. Played gold yesterday with no problems. Highly recommend.

Walking Boot and AFO Alternative - RecoverX Brace
Helen (Saltillo, MS, US)
Out of the Boot and into More Freedom!

This RecoverX brace was exactly what I needed when transitioning from a CAM boot to ankle brace. I can lock it to prevent ankle movement or, now that I’ve been approved to strengthen foot muscles and transition to full weight bearing, I can unlock it for full mobility. In these early transitioning days, I need the support, but I also need the mobility of the unlocked brace. And it’s so much more convenient, as it fits over any shoe! I love it!

Thank you for taking the time to share your story, Helen! We’re thrilled the RecoverX Brace has given you both the support and freedom you need during recovery. That smooth transition out of the boot and into mobility is exactly what we designed it for—so glad it’s working for you!

Great customer service

If you have a problem with the brace, call TayCo! - great customer service. I had trouble setting up my brace for the first time, then kind of messed up two straps, but after talking with TayCo the next day, it will be okay.
I was able to try the brace and was impressed. I'm not used walking almost normal (drop-foot) but I felt pretty secure and able to walk without wobbling. I think it's going to help more than anything else I've tried in the past!

Thanks for your honest feedback, Robert. We’re glad the brace is working for you so far, but we’re sorry the instructions caused frustration. That’s not the experience we aim for, and will use this feedback to continuing improving.

Great product!!

Bought this for my daughter as she was returning to sports from a fibula fracture. Allows for full range of motion, but protects from rolling & breaking again.

Thank for the fantastic review, Lisa. We’re so glad to hear your daughter is getting back to sports with the protection and mobility she needs. Wishing her a strong and confident return to play! 💪
