Aircast Air-Stirrup Universe

Exactly as expected. Fits perfectly (it’s adjustable) and performs well.

At first it was very uncomfortable at first because I did not realize I could adjust the straps. To adjust the straps just peel back the light blue off the black strap on either sides and move black strap until it fits comfortably. It will not loose its stickiness.

So painful on bottom of foot that I couldn't even walk in it, so I had to guess how to put it on. There didn't seem to be many adjustment options. My injury was a sprained ankle 2 months ago so I can walk better without it. Also, arrived without box, so it must have been a return. I'm returning. Don't waste your time and money, and the resources it takes to have this thing traveling in an endless order/return loop.

I'm glad I bought this as my doctor gave me nothing to support my ankle after I broke it. Yes I had a boot to wear out on the rare occasion I went out, but I needed something around the house. This brace works well. My biggest problem is getting it on. The velcro straps are so strong that they are hard to tear apart. The two straps keep getting entangled while I'm attempting to get the sides up and situated. When removing the brace, the straps are hard to pull apart with the industrial strength velcro on them. Plus it is difficult to find the end of each strap to begin pulling off. I have put a super high grade tape close to the end to help my fingers feel the tape and know the end is. But it only sticks for a month or so then I have to start over. It would be nice if the manufacturer put something on the end. If the brace doesn't slip from where I put it on to begin with, it's fairly comfortable, but not infrequently the heel part moves and changes the brace position. I would recommend this to only those people who have strength in their hands to pull the velcro apart and who have the dexterity to put the brace on to begin with.

My son plays football and basketball. He has severely rolled his ankles a couple times so he started wearing these braces. He has tried many other braces and tried taping but these are his favorite. They are comfortable but offer solid support. No rolled ankles at all this season.

The ankle brace is def helping my ankle but I really wish the straps were just a little longer. I have to pull to tight just to get them to stay attached. It is also so tight it is irritating my skin. If you have a large calf muscle you may want to try a different one.

Well made Item that works as advertised. Stabilized my ankle and did the job so I had less pain and was able to walk where if I did not have this, it would not be easy to walk until my ankle healed. Only negative there is, is Amazon keeps shipping items in literally brown paper bags which is ridiculous. Use a proper ship box. I do pay for Amazon Prime. The extra penny is not gonna hurt Amazon and the paper boxes are recyclable too.

I got a grade 2 sprain in one ankle, and the folks at urgent care gave me a splint exactly like this, but lower quality. It worked well to support my ankle while allowing movement - exactly the recommendation for a grade 2 sprain from leading medical groups - but the old splint wasn't made to last. After a week, it started falling apart. I technically don't need to be in a splint after 2 weeks, but given my past experience with a similar grade sprain in my wrist, I knew there would be times when I'd want more protection or days when I'd tweak it and need more support. I wish I'd ordered this splint sooner!! It is so much better than my old one. The velcro is higher quality, the velcro tabs on the splint are attached better, the plastic is a higher grade, and the vinyl for the air cushion is thicker (better). I'm glad I have this splint as my long term, as-needed support. It was a great purchase!
