Donjoy Velocity Ankle Brace

I play football and have a grade 2 tear on my ankle ligaments about 5 years back and after I returned from the injury, I was going over on the ankle again every six months or so and putting myself out for weeks and months at a time. I just couldn’t get a run of games going and felt that I'd have to give up football in the long run as I was getting sick of getting injured... Anyway I bought this brace a year back and I haven’t been injured since... It’s comfortable and doesn’t hinder your game and it prevents you from going over on / rolling your ankle due to its support... I have nearly gone over on it twice and if I hadn’t of had the brace on then both times, it would have been really serious for my ankle but both times it prevented it from being a full turn and I didn’t have any injury at all and kept on playing. I play 2/3 times a week so I’ve given it a good test. The only problem I have with it is that it only lasted me a year so I have to buy another one now... I'd really expect to get a bit longer than that out of it but it’s definitely worth the money. Great product in my opinion and I no longer even think about my ankle during a game.

I purchased this after returning a neoprene support with straps to a local sports shop and I really couldn't be happier. Not only is it the most comfortable ankle support I have ever worn, with no aches from an altered food position or reduction in blood flow, but it provides me absolutely brilliant support and stability. I have actually tried to intentionally roll my ankle in this support and have been unable to do so due to the excellent design. Football, badminton, basketball are now no danger at all to my injury (roll) prone ankle.
