Features & Benefits:

  • Proven support with enhanced comfort: By employing the Push Aequi Flex ankle brace as part of a treatment plan, the user can achieve full weight-bearing at an early stage while still maintaining full stability. This stability has been proven in tests of the new Push Aequi Flex versus the leading alternatives. An advanced testing system, designed by the Fraunhofer Institute*, indicated that, in addition to the added comfort, the degree of actual physical stabilization offered by the new Aequi Flex matches that of its predecessor.

  • New Flex-protect system brings ankle stability to the next level: The next generation Aequi flex, includes a redesigned medial reinforcement and features a shell that is rigid in the center with increased flexibility towards the edges. The shell encloses the lower leg, ankle and heel and has a recess for the malleolus, while the front diagonal strap system anchors the foot. The closed loop of shell and strap offers both inversion control and compression.
  • All new shell design provides both stability and flexibility: Utilizing sophisticated 3-D techniques, the new shell creates a rigid core that is methodically shaped to allow bending and stretching. Employing varying layers of soft and hard materials, the shell becomes increasingly flexible towards the edges so it conforms to the anatomy of the user.

  • Upgraded functional strap system: The front diagonal strap system anchors the foot in the shell. The sleek, low-profile combination of elastic and non-elastic strap components offers both inversion stability and compression at the same time for ultimate protection, flexibility, and comfort.

  • Compression straps: The two figure 8 elastic straps deliver evenly distributed compression to the foot and ankle, easily adjustable to the needed/desired level of compression. The silicone lining ensures a solid closure and keep the brace in place throughout the day. 
  • Does not inhibit normal walking/running gait
  • Combination of the softer, more flexible shell and breathable, moisture-wicking materials, creates unsurpassed comfort for all-day wear
  • Manufactured in Europe from premium, durable materials
  • Machine washable
  • Contains latex
