buckeye -> RE: suggestions for ankle brace (May 8, 2008 12:03:17 PM)

For a golfer, the ankle brace used may be a matter of convenience for donning, cost, fit in the shoe, etc. rather than based on performance to stabilize the ankle. I think many of the research studies look at stabilization, speed, vertical leap, and so forth. Although a brace that performs best for more active sports like soccer, basketball, and football may be a good brace for everyone, there may be a brace that is less expensive that will be OK for a golfer.
In general, you shold probably look for a lace-up brace and probably with some sort of velcro straps. There are many names that are probably similar in quality - ASO, Swedo, Active Ankle, Air Cast, Rocket Sock and others.
I like the ASO.
