James L. (Athens, TN, US)
Torn Peroneal Tendon

I have an inoperable tear in my left tendon. I used soft braces for the past year and the injury kept breaking my shoes down. I was unable to walk on uneven ground. I do a lot of outside stuff. I am a constable and serve warrants for a living. I also actively participate in wilderness search and rescue. Since my injury search and rescue has been out of the question. After receiving my active x brace from Tayco and pairing it with good lace up ankle boots lots of good changes have happened. I am now able to walk well on even terrain and pain in my foot has subsided. This has been a gamechanger for me and a lifesaver. I am now able to get back to what I love. I was hesitant at first, but after calling and talking with Kelly I felt assured to give it a try. I am so glad that I did. I feel very confident taking steps and had lost that feeling.

Thank you for sharing, James! We’re so glad the AthleticX Brace has helped restore your confidence, stability, and ability to get back to the outdoor work and activities you love. Hearing that you’re walking uneven terrain again with less pain is exactly why we do what we do. Wishing you continued strength and support on every step ahead.

I was needlessly worried

I just need to be worried about the effectiveness of this brace because of the price point. And I don’t know why I delayed getting it
I’m having ankle replacement surgery in the fall, but in the meantime, I still need to walk around. I can’t believe how much more stable my ankle feels with this brace on. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for sharing this, John! We’re so glad the AthleticX Brace has given you more stability and confidence while you prepare for surgery. Wishing you continued support and comfort every step of the way.

Support for Charcot Foot

I had gout in the right ankle for several years. Finally got the right level of meds to address the gout. However, the uric acid deposits destroyed the ankle joint and as the uric acid deposits were reduced the leg bone slipped to the side of the foot. Wearing the over the shoe athletic ankle brace allows me to have pain free mobility and keeps my foot aligned with the leg bone.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Hank. We’re so glad the AthleticX Brace has helped provide the support and alignment you needed for pain-free mobility. We’re cheering you on as you continue getting back to the things you love.

Unexpected

I didn't expect the results I have gotten with this brace. I have nerve damage and my ankle rolls out and I can't lift up on my right foot because of it. This really helps especially on uneven surfaces not perfect but the best I have found. Thank you tayco

Thank you for sharing your experience, Thomas! We know how frustrating ankle instability and nerve damage can be, especially on uneven surfaces, so it’s wonderful to hear the brace has given you more confidence and support while walking. Thank you again for choosing TayCo Brace!

Works Great - Comfortable!

I bought the AthleticX brace after dislocating and breaking my ankle and leg while skydiving. After applying zero weight to the ankle for almost 6 weeks post surgery, I brought the brace with me to the doctors office, and told them I was planning to use it instead of the boot immediately. The doctor gave his blessing, albeit with a stern warning about being careful not to twist the ankle - and one week later I am walking fairly normally when wearing the brace. Still a long way to go with the recovery, but I feel much more confident when wearing the brace than not wearing it.

I bought a second brace to wear on the other foot when I go back to skydiving, and I am confident that I will be able to run out the landings easily wearing both braces.

Thanks for making such a great product!

Thank you for sharing your story, Derek! That’s an incredible recovery journey, and we’re glad the AthleticX Brace is helping you get back on your feet with more confidence. Wishing you continued progress as you recover and a strong return to skydiving.
