VACOankle
Safety instruction:
VACOankle should be used in conjunction with a tennis shoe in order to guarantee optimal support. Only this will effectively restrict any twisting of the foot, without hindering the normal roll-off movement.
Stability and comfort for the wearer can be enhanced further by utilising the functions of the vacuum cushion (see individual vacuum cushion adjustment). The stability of the ankle brace is, however, guaranteed, without using the vacuum cushion. Wear the VACOankle support with a sock long enough to prevent any direct contact of the brace with the skin. This will feel pleasant and is more hygienic.
