Created with the athlete in mind, the AirCast A60 provides a winning combination of effective support and protection, comfort, and simplified application. The patent pending design incorporates a pair of sleek stabilizers located on either side of the ankle. These stabilizers are molded at a 60 degree angle to help guard against ankle sprains and prevent rollover. Manufactured from Breath-O-Prene® material, the A60 ensures that the wearer stays comfortably cool and dry, while the light-weight anatomic design easily fits in athletic footwear without creating additional bulk. The A60 is applied and adjusted with a single strap that securely holds it in place; replacing time-consuming lacing. The AirCast A60 Ankle Support is indicated for moderate ankle sprains/ strains and instability which requires more advanced ankle support compared to lace up braces. The "Next Degree in Ankle Support", the Aircast A60 provides a superior combination of effective support and protection, comfort, and simplified application. Similar to the AirSport, the A60 is less bulky to accommodate more shoegear.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
This is one of those easy purchases that you almost completely forget about, because it's so trouble free. But the real value is in the wearing. I had sprained my ankle pretty badly playing soccer and was almost reluctant to get back out on the pitch. The AirCast A60 was recommended to me by my physical therapist. I ordered it from Amazon just two days prior to game day, and it arrived in time. I took it out of the box on my way to field and put it on just before the match started. It went on easily, but did make my boot feel a bit snug. I instantly felt the extra support that my freshly recovered ankle needed. Just a minute into the match I found myself running full tilt, and realized how well it was doing its job. This brace is so light that I only knew that I had it on because I was conscious that it gave me as much moral support as ankle support. After a couple of weeks back on the team I'm considering not wearing it anymore because my ankle is feeling pretty good. But, this brace is so unobtrusive, I think I'll keep the moral support for another week or two. I certainly recommend the AirCast A60 as a great buy.
