OrthoSleeve Compression Ankle Brace for Ankle Support and Pain Relief

From the Brand Making Life Better: Our Journey and Innovations

How Did We Begin?

Our journey started with the introduction of a foot sleeve specifically designed to alleviate the pain associated with Plantar Fasciitis. Building on that initial success, we expanded our offerings to include a comprehensive range of compression braces and sock solutions, all aimed at helping you lead a life free from pain.

What Sets Our Products Apart?

We utilize our patented Compression Zone Technology, which applies targeted pressure to specific areas linked to pain from common ailments. Our products are crafted to be soft, thin, and flexible, ensuring comfort throughout your daily activities.

What Problems Are We Addressing?

Our mission is to enable you to spend more time engaging in your favorite activities without discomfort. Our easy-to-use, scientifically-backed designs are here to provide relief. Founded in 2008 by Dave Higgins, OrthoSleeve has evolved into a “Three-Generation” family business. Currently, his son, Josh, serves as President while his grandson, DK, operates as the Operations Manager. The expertise of the Higgins family in manufacturing, leadership, and consulting within the medical device and sports industries is the foundation of OrthoSleeve. Notably, the FS6 Performance Foot Sleeve was our pioneering product and has since become a hallmark of our offerings.

Product Description: A Comfortable, Lightweight Ankle Brace

Our ankle brace serves as a comfortable and lightweight alternative to traditional bulky braces. It features targeted zones of compression designed specifically for alleviating Achilles Tendonitis and addressing swollen, painful, or weak ankles.

• Medical-Grade Compression: The brace offers a flexible fit, suitable for both day and night wear, and discreet enough to be worn under clothing.
• K-Zone Bracing Technology: This unique feature mimics the effect of low-dye taping, providing enhanced support.

Materials and Fit

Our ankle brace is composed of a moisture-wicking blend of nylon and spandex. It is important to note that the AF7 Ankle Brace is anatomically tailored for either the left or right foot to ensure a customized fit.

Sizing Guidance

To determine the right size, please consult the sizing chart available in the image gallery. This guide provides detailed instructions on how to measure your ankle, along with size recommendations. If your measurements fall between two sizes, we suggest opting for the larger size.

Care Instructions

For optimal longevity, we recommend hand washing your OrthoSleeve Ankle Brace and allowing it to air dry.

Compression Level

The OrthoSleeve AF7 features up to 20mmHg of medical-grade compression, with seven distinct zones delivering varying levels of support from light to firm. Sizing is calculated based on ankle circumference:

• Small: 5.5 - 6.5 in | 14 - 17 cm
• Medium: 7 - 8.25 in | 17 - 21 cm
• Large: 8.5 - 9.5 in | 21 - 24 cm
• X-Large: 10 - 12 in | 25 - 30 cm
• XX-Large: 12 in | 30 cm & plus

Functional Features

The AF7 is engineered to fit snugly, incorporating medical-grade compression for exceptional support. The heel pocket ensures correct placement during wear, thereby preventing inversion sprains, stabilizing the ankle, and improving balance.

Additionally, our innovative K-Zone Technology imitates kinesiology taping methods, providing similar, if not better, results without the need for tape. With dual low-stretch zones—Ankle Stabilizer Zone and Lateral Gel Stabilizer Zone—our ankle brace minimizes the risk of injury while ensuring freedom of movement.

The lightweight design does not compromise support, allowing for easy wear without bulk. With breathable, moisture-wicking fabric, the AF7 prevents sweat buildup, keeping you cool and comfortable during your activities.
