The Bledsoe Ultimate Ankle Brace is a functional ankle brace unlike any ankle brace or support on the market. Made of aerospace super alloy aluminum, the Ultimate Ankle Brace features exceptional control for chronic ankle instabilities or early rehabilitation of acute ankle sprains where ankle plantar-flexion and dorsi-flexion is permissible.

Features include:

• Inversion and eversion control are maximized without restricting ankle plantar-flexion or dorsi-flexion.
• Anchors to the shoe to permit the shoe to control the foot, while the remainder of the brace controls the lower leg. It can be quickly removed and changed to another shoe.
• Lightweight, ultra-strong construction is adjustable for width and position in the shoe.
• The entire brace can be disassembled and the wear components changed for a long life.
• Hook and loop pieces anchor the brace to the bottom of the shoe.

Indications
This device is indicated to increase support in the inversion
and eversion control of chronically unstable ankles, and for increased inversion and eversion control for grade 1 and 2 acutely sprained ankles where dorsi-flexion and plantar-flexion is permissible and inflammation is under control.

Contraindications
This device is contraindicated for immediate application to acute grade 3 ankle sprains where plantarflexion and dorsi-flexion is not desirable or permissible. Application is appropriate after inflammation has been controlled and plantar-flexion and dorsi-flexion is again possible starting in the early weight bearing phase of rehabilitation.
