BauerfeindSports Ankle Support Dynamic - Ankle Compression Sleeve for Freedom of Movement - 3D AirKnit Fabric for Breathability - Premium Quality & Washable (M, Black)

I ordered an L and it fit just right. The compression isn’t bad on the skin plus it really stabilizes the ankle while running with no irritation. Its value is definitely right for the price, I’d say for certain that this is worth it. I would say buying this product you will have to avoid wearing socks because it does apply to much pressure while wearing shoes and cuts some circulation to the foot. So no socks! Plus, it feels better anyways running with no socks.

Ordered this for ankle/ foot support based on a ligament injury. I have small feet and ankles and most of the previous ones I’ve tried were too loose. Used the size measurement guide and it fits perfectly. Ordered the teal and blue color since it was the only one in my size.

Helped me feel more secure on the court. The fit was good for me. I have the knees and elbow braces as well. Still early on but looks like this will last as it appears to be built well. They are not cheap. Time will be the tell for me as far as value and if one truly gets what they pay for. So far, I do recommend this product.

Nine months after ankle surgery I was still having problems with stability and swelling in my ankle after exercise or standing for long periods of time. This brace has provided excellent support and compression. I can do all of the machines on the circuit at the gym with no or minimal pain now.

I waited a while to purchase these because of the price, I should’ve bought them much sooner. I’m currently conditioning for USMC bootcamp, I needed some reliable supports that would allow me to still strengthen my ankles and keep range of motion while still having enough support to keep me from injuring myself badly. Well two days ago I twisted my ankle (in the supports) while in a Zumba class with my friends. In a normal situation I would’ve been down for the count, but I wasn’t! I was able to keep weight on my foot when I usually wouldn’t have been able to. I was able to walk after about 10 minutes instead of a few days. These have just enough compression on the ankle area that they helped with the inflammation without cutting off circulation. Of course I iced my ankle twice and kept it elevated, but I’ve kept my supports on the entire time. With other ankle supports I would’ve had to take them off periodically just to allow for circulation. My recovery time has been much shorter than with any other ankle supports I’ve ever tried (which is a lot haha). I’m a size 9 in shoes and weigh about 230, I bought a size Medium and they fit perfectly.

I guess I should have looked for a plain black or white one, or I may have just lit some money on fire here after the panic of a sports injury. Intended user does not like the "funky turquoise" color. These look and feel about the same as the lower cost ones (much lower cost ones), but maybe I will try and wear these myself as they oddly fit me even though it says I should have a larger size. So funny color, funny size, not ideal. Perhaps over-hyped. But I will update if I try it and it works great or we can hide it under a sock or something.Update: I got to use these myself after I had some soreness from jumping in a workout. The good--I felt they relieved the common foot ailments (plantar fasciatis, tibilias tendinitis, etc). The bad--the fit was odd. The left was tighter than the right. They are looser on the ankle and tighter on the top of the feet. Then probably the worst part is how they roll up or fold up when you put a shoe on.

I have been recovering from serious injuries in both of my ankles. Without these socks I am unable to walk more than a block or two at the most. These socks are completely different from anything else I've tried, and so far that's about a dozen recovery socks, none of them are worth a dime, but these Bauerfiend socks are life savers! They are well worth the cost; I have bought four of them so far along with other Bauerfiend items which I am so happy are available in the US (they are made in Germany and very well-engineered).

This is not at all the level of quality or performance as the one you get from the doctors office, very disapointed.This is missing the gel bladders on the side, this is just a sock yall.
