DonJoy Performance POD® ANKLE SUPPORT - White - Medium - Right

I was hesitant to purchase this because I thought it would be like every other brace I have used before. This thing is fantastic. I reinjured (sprained) my ankle last week. I have been trying another type, and it was just causing more pain. This brace immobilized the ankle, but it still allowed me to run and play pickleball. I don’t know how it works, but it does. My whole foot felt comfortable and safer than it has in years. Well done and well made product.

Love it , i have an extremely high instep, so a little tight on off but does what i hoped for, alot of support for worn ankle ligaments, so stretch there is no pain , but ankle turned easily , this product gives true real support without impeding desired movements

Originally had a history of an easy to sprain R Ankle from hiking and running with weight on rocky terrain with the Marine Corps. The brace I got from the doctor was less than ideal (too stiff and couldn't fit in my boots), so I went ahead and bought this one after a particularly bad pop. Never rolled my ankle again while I had it on! Tweaked it a few times when I was doing trail runs and hikes in OCS, but I could just walk it off with minimal issues, it fit into my combat boots without me having to completely undo the lacing (running shoes no problem at all), and gave me a little up-down flexibility for going up or down-hill. Only issues I had was that the part that goes over the top of my foot is quite rigid and left a bruise, after a while the velcro strap that goes under the arch of your foot is uncomfortable and chafes (wear thick & high socks), and the velcro was getting worn down after a year of hard use. I also saw a slight decrease in my run time in boots as I have to run a little more flatfooted. However, I'm more than happy to take these issues over popping my ankle again. I will be buying another brace as I unfortunately lost mine in a move, but would strongly recommend this brace to anyone with VERY easily sprained ankles looking for a tough lightweight brace for an active lifestyle.

I’ve been using laced ankle braces to play racquetball. These are amazing! Light weight, easy to put on and take off. I’m actually surprised the reviews aren’t higher. Glad I bought them!!

I have a long history of inversion ankle rolls and most recently such a roll out on trail run resulted in an avulsion fracture. In researching braces for after my immediate recovery, this brace has excellent reviews and the predominance of folks says this brace is very supportive. I’m still in my Bauerfeind immobilizer during the day, but I do have a softer immobilized to wear at night. While switching out today, I decided to give the pod a fit check. It fits fine, but it offers almost zero support - it is just too flimzy to prevent another roll on the trails. I have a very hard time believing this brace does much of anything, except take up space in my shoe. This will be returned.

I’m trying to replace this exact same brace purchased in xs last year. I’m on my third attempt. The first one arrived stained up with something brown. The second brace, again the same size as the one I’m currently wearing, is so ridiculously small on the ankle strap it definitely would not have stayed closed during any sort of serious activity. I am between a shoe size 7 and 7.5 and I have skinny ankles hence the constant injury to them and the need for the stabilizer. According to the size chart I should fit in the XS. The XS I currently have in black fits perfectly. The reorder is white for what’s that is worth. I think they have altered the product design. I have ordered a SM this time and I’m hoping it will work. It’s the only brace can comfortably wear daily to prevent further injury to my unstable ankle. When sized correctly it works very well. ..I received the small..it’s boarder-line too large. It came in different packaging so perhaps it’s the old design. Who knows…I give up.

My daughter is in club volleyball. She absolutely loves her Don Joy ankle braces compare to many other brands we tried. Specifically because they are super easy to put on and take off (no laces) along with the feeling of protection and comfort. She purchase her second set this year 2025 and usese her 2024 versions for practice. We purchased the medium size as my daughter's shoe size is 9 in women's size. She has crushed a few feet this last season and so far no injuries to report. Also, it did take her about 5 practices to get use to them but now she can't play without them. I definitely recommend this product if you're looking for a modern look, simple to put on take off, and offers exceptional protection.

My daughter has hated so many ankle braces- these were the golden egg. Honestly bought the other pair off another merchant much cheaper but had to come to Amazon to buy the other foot. Are ankle specific so u need right and left. Still worth every penny! Protects her ankles and still allows movement.
