I recently tried out this foot brace with mixed feelings. While it has some positive aspects, there are a few key issues that prevent me from fully endorsing it. I found it to be an average product with room for improvement.One of the main drawbacks of this foot brace is its inability to hold the foot at a 90-degree angle consistently, which is crucial for maintaining a stretched position for the plantar throughout the night. Despite the presence of a metal form, it fails to effectively prevent the foot from flopping. This compromises its intended purpose and leaves much to be desired in terms of support.On the positive side, I found the foot brace to be lightweight and soft, making it comfortable to wear. It is also relatively easy to put on, contrary to some negative reviews I came across. The user-friendly design allows for hassle-free application, which is appreciated, especially for individuals with limited mobility or dexterity.Although this foot brace has its shortcomings, I see potential in it. If changes were made to the shape to enhance its ability to hold the foot at a 90-degree angle consistently and prevent flopping, it would greatly improve its overall effectiveness.In conclusion, while the foot brace offers some positive aspects such as being lightweight, soft, and easy to put on, it falls short in terms of its primary function of maintaining a 90-degree angle for the foot and preventing flopping. With modifications to its shape, this product has the potential to be a reliable option. For now, however, I remain cautiously optimistic and would consider purchasing it again if improvements were implemented.Disclaimer: Please note that individual experiences may vary.

It works ok but wear a padded sock under it because the metal insert is not padded enough and digs into your foot and shin

I can't say whether or not this works but then I will never know whether or not it is on properly as there are no directions. I don’t even know if it is upside down or not and I read the brief instructions provided after another purchaser asked for directions. One already has to go through trial and error for fit....this should not take trial and error to put it on properly! May have better sales and less returns of the supplier put some effort into providing appropriate instructions.

I didn’t feel it flexed the foot enough and the hard part of the splint hurt the top of my arch. Could only mange a couple of hours with it before ripping it off my foot.

I bought this last year and I do have to be honest that it was confusing as hell to put on every night. I think I might have used it about 7-10 times in total last year. I eventually figured out how to get in and out of the splints as one velcro strap had to go through the loop, then reverse it to stick. So, I was looking at some other night splints last week and I thought I would give these a try again after months of waking up with pain in my feet.After the first night of wearing them again, the next morning my feet felt great. There was no pain. But, when I get on my feet in the morning most of that pain is still there. I'm not sure exactly how this is working but I do know that I have had "foot drop" for a very long time and maybe these help prevent that. I notice that when I sleep without these I always point my feet and toes down which puts pressure on my Achilles Heel which I'm sure cuts off circulation to my heel and all the way up to my toes.My only wish is that there was a strap or something that allowed me to pull back my toes and stretch my plantar fascia throughout the night for even more relief and some rehabilitation. This is the only reason I knocked off one star. When I bought this the description makes it sound like it stretches your toe up, but no matter how much I adjust the aluminum bar, my toes are still flat.I plan on taking these seriously this time and wearing them every night for the next month to see if my feet and toes improve. I'll report back and post an update in May. FYI - I have had chronic foot and toe pain for almost two years and these seem to be slowly improving my condition, mostly in the mornings before I wake up.

I have been in agony with plantar fasciitis for about 6 months. It has just been getting progressively worse until I could barely walk. I tried hot and cold therapy, resting, massage, went to Dr. after 3 months got steroid injection in 1 foot and nothing helped. Bought inserts for shoes, changed footwear tried EVERYTHING but nothing helped! Putting on weight as could not exercise or walk. I was very miserable :-(. Tried a different splint for nighttime was really uncomfortable. Then I discovered this!!! It's been amazing and really helped. I bought one at first and used it on one my right foot at night time. Over time (about 1 week) there was a huge improvement in my right foot. I bought a 2nd one and use them both at night and the pain has got less and less with every day. When I had a day off I would wear them during the day as well. I'm almost good now and can walk without feeling like I have hot knives poking my feel. They work by keeping your foot at a right angle while you sleep therefore stretching the affected tendon while you rest. At night it is comfortable to wear them over thin socks. During the day I wear them over a couple of pairs of thick padded sleep socks. It's hard to walk about with the splints on both feet but so worth it for the relief. Buy them - don't delay and end your suffering!

I was skeptical getting this. I work on my feet on a concrete floor. I've had quite some sharp burning heel pain for weeks. Excruciating. I got new boots made for arch support and insoles specially for plantar sorry and they maybe took some edge offididn't think this song would do much more but I'm willing to try anything at this point. I wore it for 4 hours before bed to get used to it and it was uncomfortable at first but I was more used to it by bedtime. Enough to fall asleep. The next morning I woke up and as usual very cautiously put weight on my feet getting out if bed and the pain was noticeably much less. I'm halfway through my shift now and the pain hadn't increased much from that. I'm thrilled, really thrilled and completely confident in my purchase and leaving a review which I never do. I have large (male 13 us extra wide) feet and was very skeptical it would fit but it fits fine I'm near the end of the adjustment but it's enough. The metal rod is bendable and easily adjustable to a comfortable angle with a lot of room to increase it as I get used to it and need more.and I received an email from the company within hours offering me 20% off another one which I don't need at this time but still was impressive at the speed and quality of service

Pros:Sturdy and strongSmooth and nice to the touch, not like other brace materials that can be harshVelcro attaches/seals wellIt's not bulky, and I love that it leaves as much areas on the foot as possible exposed. Nothing is needlessly coveredIt works for both right and left foot.Cons:It took me a long while before I figure out how to use it and place it correctly. No instructions at all provided with the product. Image is not helpfulIt might be very helpful but it is not super comfortable, it would take a few nights to get used to.It's hard to walk on, so if you get up at night, it's not going to be comfortable to walk onAll in all, I think it is helpful and efficient, Need to provide additional instructions, and not sure about how durable it is, but I would recommend it.
