Great alternative to a walking boot

Much smaller than a walking boot, this brace allows the comfort and convenient of wearing regular shoes, yet still achieving the fixed 90 degree angulation needed for healing. In addition, it can be adjusted to allow limited movement for transitioning into full articulation. (Great for driving, whereas a standard walking boot may be too wide to hit the brake pedal without also simultaneously pressing the accelerator.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Daniel! We’re thrilled to hear that the RecoverX provided you with the support you needed — while still allowing the comfort and convenience of wearing your regular shoes. Wishing you continued success in your recovery journey!

velcro straps

the velcro straps are not long enough

Kevin, we appreciate your feedback. We will go ahead and send you some longer straps, as well. Keep us posted if they work for you.

Tayco Brace, Thank GOD!

I had a classic walking boot for a fractured ankle, and developed SERIOUS sciattica from being off kilter with the boot too high. The walking boot was so very uncomfortable, I was in complete agony. The Tayco over the shoe brace provided some relief. I wore the regular boot for 7 weeks before getting the Tayco, not sure if the Tayco would have provided enough support the first couple of weeks, but it seems to do the trick for this stage of my recovery. I'm 57 so I heal a little slower than younger people, 10-12 weeks. Anyway, Tayco was a life saver! I still have sciattica but it is getting much better wearing an even brace with my other foot.

Thank you for sharing your story, Stacey! We're so glad the RecoverX Brace provided some much-needed relief during your recovery. We hear so often how traditional walking boots can throw everything out of balance, and it means a lot to know our over-the-shoe design helped you feel more supported and aligned.

Awesome!!!

Broke my foot 8 weeks ago and was in a boot. In the 7th week I began using the TayCo Brace and was able to participate in athletics again. The brace gave me the confidence that my ankle would remain stable.

Thank you for sharing your story, Shane! We’re glad to hear the AthleticX Brace gave you the support and confidence to return to athletics after your injury. Wishing you continued strength and a full recovery as you get back to doing what you love! 💪
