User questions & answers

Question:	Why did the price went up so high but this price let you back in September and now it’s 20 something dollars more expensive
Answer:	Rollers are a soft sponge & clips are a soft plastic.
Question:	I just received this from Amazon today. My ankle eight inches in diameter but the brace is enormous. Are there different sizes
Answer:	They will hold through the the night once you get them to fasten, but that’s the problem - getting them to fasten. The handle would detach from the foam roller part as I was rolling my hair. But, with repeated tries, I got it to stay.
Question:	Where can I buy more rings? I could use another set for a pair of sneakers
Answer:	Yes, the ends of your hair will just have a bit of curl.
Question:	which model WILL work with sandals
Answer:	Yes. The two colors differentiate the direction of the spiral (clockwise and counterclockwise)

The Swede-O PowerWrap Ankle Brace helps prevent sprains and ankle injuries by stabilizing the ankle joint. This brace is recommended by athletic trainers and healthcare professionals. Ideal for athletes who tape their ankles to help protect or prevent ankle injuries, and individuals suffering from weak or injured ankles. The positive tensioning system and no-tie laces makes it faster and easier to apply compared to traditional, lace up style braces or ankle taping. An open design accommodates variations in swelling and allows the foot to be comfortably placed into the brace without flexing the ankle, which could further irritate an injury. The PowerWrap tabs provide independent adjustments to the foot and ankle regions for customized support and can easily be fine-tuned when more or less support is needed. When properly fitted, the unique center wedge allows for natural ankle movement during activity. The shell is made from durable canvas material to withstand vigorous sporting activities and features a seamless bottom for comfort. Soft material over the Achilles tendon helps reduce irritation and the potential for blistering. Stainless steel spiral stays are sewn into the brace to help prevent inversion and eversion injuries. This brace fits in most athletic shoes. The bilateral design fits the right or left ankle. Made in the USA.

Product description

The Swede-O Tarsal Lok features a speed lacing system for quick and easy application, and combines the superior comfort of a lace-up brace with the greater support provided by a rigid brace. The integrated design uses body heat to conform the stabilizer panel to the shape of your ankle and foot, providing a custom fit for superior protection and support. The breathable tongue helps keep the foot cool and comfortable. The Tarsal Lok is constructed from an extremely durable, abrasion resistant material, with internal laminated foam that provides both strength and comfort. Because the majority of the Tarsal Lok's support is provided by the shape and placement of the built-in stabilizer, the Tarsal Lok does not need the excessive material around the forefoot and heel normally found in other lace-up ankle braces. This low-profile design makes the Tarsal Lok an ideal brace for a variety of applications, including sports like soccer, basketball and football. The Tarsal Lok is an ideal brace for everyday use because it will fit comfortably inside almost any shoe style, not just athletic shoes. The Tarsal Lok may even be worn with orthotics. Made in the USA.

• Quick and easy speed lacing
• Integrated stabilizer conforms to the ankle for superior support and protection
• Low profile and fits in most any shoe
• Support of a rigid brace, comfort of a lace-up brace

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this brace good for soccer? I want a brace for good support but dont wanted to be bulky in my boot
Answer:	It doesn't come with any. I would imagine you could contact the company to inquire about them.
Question:	Does this come as one or a pair
Answer:	It comes with shoe laces, but in the event that the shoelace breaks? Gosh, I guess hiking boot size?
Question:	i wear a size 10.5 shoe. what size do i wear
Answer:	pretty much the braces are sized according to shoe size. I have a narrow foot and small ankle so a small does well for me.
Question:	Does this brace hold the ankle at a 90 degree angle
Answer:	I'm not familiar enough with women's shoe sizes to judge from that. I'm 71" and 190 lbs. I'm a retired Marine Corps officer with formerly very muscular legs. A large fits me fine. Considering the laces, the velcro and the elastic strap, there is a great deal of flexibility in the fit. My guess is that you'd do well with a large. If you'd rather a medium, that would probably expand to fit also.

Answer:	I wear a size 8 woman's shoe & bought a size small. I looked up how to size them on the Swed-O website.
Question:	what size fits my shoe
Answer:	It doesn’t hold it at a 90. It does give it great support to prevent it from rolling. I guess it could if you laced it up super tight though.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you wear this brace with any shoe
Answer:	The key is fitting ankle first! Shoe will fit over it. See sizes given by vendor.
Question:	does this ankle brace fit for both foots
Answer:	I have worn these to play (men's highly competitive) soccer for the last 10 years (new pair each year). I first sprained (rolled) my ankles playing volleyball and reinjured in soccer. Wearing these braces, I have NEVER sprained my ankles. I don't find them limiting in movement and I like to cut and dribble. Even better, I have not suffered injury when players step on my ankle, kick against my foot or even kick a ball at the same time as an opposing player. I wear a size nine regular shoe, but with the brace I wear 9.5 cleats.
