BioSkin AFTR with Gel Ankle Compression Brace – Size XS-S

Overview

The AFTR with Gel is a pull-on ankle brace from BioSkin that is pulled on over the foot for higher compression. A rigid stabilizing strap goes around the outside and inside of the ankle, while gel pads inside the sleeve contour around both sides of the ankle for cooling support.

Because it is a pull-on design rather than a wrap, it suits wearers who can comfortably don and doff the brace on their own. It is slim enough to wear around the house or in a sneaker, and is compatible with toe positioning straps if a doctor recommends them. This listing covers size XS–S.

Things to consider

• It is a pull-on style, so you need enough hand strength and mobility to get it on and off comfortably.
• Higher compression can feel snug — check sizing carefully before ordering; this listing is XS–S (M-L and XL-XXL are sold separately).
• If you have circulation issues, diabetes, numbness or a recent injury, check with a clinician before using a compression brace.
