GHORTHOUD AFO Foot Drop Brace Splint Ankle Foot Orthosis Walking with Shoes or Sleeping for Stroke Hemiplegia (Large-Left)

My husband was diagnosed with foot drop. We tried other types of braces to help him be able to work outside on his feet all day and none worked like this one. He loves it. He is a mechanic and needs to be able to walk without tripping over his own feet. It fits perfectly in his shoe. We added a shoe insert to cushion under his foot, so not standing on hard plastic.Has stood up to hours of standing and walking over the last few months of using. I highly recommend this to anyone who has "foot drop". No more shuffling his feet. He can walk normally again.

I tried this for a day. could not wear little or no instructions on how it should go on. money wasted.

For permanent drop foot, this is about the 7th "brace" I've tried, including a prescribed carbon fiber brace, and it's the ONLY one that works to keep my toes up and to keep my ankle from wobbling. It fits easily inside a shoe, and I can leave it on and wear with a slipper at home. Don't sleep with it. I watched the video many times and couldn't figure out the first way shown. The second way to wear it is much easier and just as supportive. I am a women's size 8-1/2, but I wear a size 9 shoe so it fits into shoe. The Medium size worked. You have to play around with the velcro pieces to decide how to use them. I wear a sock under it so it does not irritate. I RECOMMEND IT!

My mother-in-law has drop foot. She says it feels very comfortable and really keeps her foot secured well.

After trying several other AFOs to help with recovery from foot drop, this product design has helped the most in the process of returning to a normal walking routine. I recognize that continuing with recommended physical therapy and strengthening of the affected muscle and nerves is still needed, this AFO fits well and has helped in my recovery.

Hard to put on and very slippery. Be careful when you use.

I found this product frustrating. It took almost an hour to figure out how it went on the first time. I had to take a pic in order to get it on after that. There are no instructions so good luck. It does the job of keeping your foot flexed very well. It will not fit inside your shoe unless you buy a bigger shoe, so I'm stuck sitting all day until I can take it off. Yesterday I did get it in my shoe, but that was after completely unlacing it, which I'm not doing every day. I wish I had known you weren't supposed to wear it all day. I wore it for eight hours and had pain around my calf. I had to put a sock between the strap and my skin, as you'll see in the picture.Bottom line, its uncomfortable, painful and doesnt come with instructions or guidelines. Do not wear all day, start small and increase time by a little bit.But it does its job excellently, so for that, it's worth it.

The idea of this brace is good the material you can NOT cut it is hard as hell. It also is so ruff along the foot and heal that it hurts and also hurts on the leg part below the knee really cut cheap. I had to have someone cut it to fit my shoe and they had a hard time but got it done. Not made good!
