ABSTRACT:
An ankle brace for use by athletes or others requiring ankle support. The brace includes a base that is conformable to the foot and ankle region of the wearer. Flexible upright side support members are secured to either side of the base in such a fashion to form a plurality of elongate upright parallel pockets. Resilient stiffening ribs are located in the pockets positioned to straddle the lateral malleolus and the medial malleolus. Flexible intermediate transverse members are secured on either side to the upright side support members in the vicinity of the ankle bone to provide additional support. The lower interior of the base is concave to conform to the arch.
