Product Details

The MalleoLoc L Ankle Brace is perfect for preventing the ankle rolling, using a comfortably padded lateral splint to take pressure off the ligament and stabilise the joint. Pain relief comes with this support, as the ankle itself has minimised strain while it's braced.

Made in a universal size to fit literally any ankle, the splint itself is lightweight and anatomically shaped to ensure there's no rolling or twisting of the ankle. A firm fit that stays in place during movement is ensured with the two strap system, one to stabilise the ankle, the other to anchor it to the lower leg. Finally, a breathable padding lines the whole support so you can comfortably wear the brace all day without issue.

Features:

  • The MalleoLoc L’s anatomically shaped L shell is positioned on the lower leg, sitting in front of the lateral malleolus, and extending slightly across the instep. 
  • Fastened at the lower leg and the foot using two non-elastic Velcro straps. This means the orthosis protects the ankle from incorrect movements which may cause recurring sprains. The foot’s natural heel-to-toe movement is supported. 
  • If required, you can attach a small functional cushion (plantar pad) on the sole of the foot. During walking, its counter-pressure stimulates the muscles that are responsible for lifting the foot, contributing to the active stabilisation of the ankle for better coordination during everyday activities.

Ideal for:

  • Conservative treatment of ankle sprains and ruptured ligaments 
  • Acute and chronic capsular ligament instabilities 
  • Prevention of chronic ligament instability 
  • Inflammatory and degenerative functional impairments 
  • Foot drop

    MalleoLoc L Ankle Brace

    This brace has helped immensely!

    It's preventing ankle from rolling out whilst walking and has also helped so much with foot drop. Walking so much faster and much more stable now with foot always in a more natural position in every step phase. Doesn't restrict movement.

    After trying so many different braces, splints and AFOs over the years with little improvement or too much restriction in movement, this is a game changer!

    Plus it fits in all usual footwear, no more needing different sized and type of shoe on affected foot :)

    Malleoloc L

    This brace provides excellent stability and is quite comfortable for all day wear. Would be a 5 star for functionality however, I am disappointed with the quality of the strapping material. After only 3 weeks of use, the straps are already starting to fray and unravel.

    Panacea for cycling

    Prevents inversion with pedalling. Perineal overactivity has settled and lateral fibulae/knee pain so far resolved Seems best worn over a sock.

    Malleoloc L

    Very happy with the support of these ankle braces. The stop me rolling out when I walk and I feel safe I have had back pain for years and these supports plus an orthotic insole have removed that problem and I have very little pain now.
