McDavid Elastic Ankle Support - Black 511

The ankle sleeves arrived one week after order was placed, just as promised. I've started wearing low-top basketball shoes and the support they provide is just enough to keep me focused on my game, not my ankles. Work great!

I've used these braces on both ankles once or twice a week for about 5 years. The ones I bought are still in great shape. I'm getting a pair for a friend that asked about them. They provide good support (If taping is a 10, these are an 8), slip on easily, are not bulky, and don't overheat like neophrene. $20 for 5 years. 10 seconds to put on. A great deal if you don't want to spend a ton of time and $ on taping.

After spraining my right ankle pretty bad in the beginning of my Sophomore soccer season at Northwestern College, IA, I wanted to prevent any future ankle sprains. However, most ankle braces are so big and bulky, and often make it more difficult to play in. These elastic ankle sleeves are a great way to give you that extra support you need without having to struggle with a big bulky brace. The only thing I've run into with these is that after playing a full 90 minute soccer game the outsides of my feet hurt. I ordered a Small according to the sizing chart provided - I wear a size 8 cleat - so I'm not sure if a bigger size would compensate for this or if its just the fact that they fit tightly around your foot.
