Is this any better than the last version of these ankle braces? The version I am referring to is the one with the old logo and full black laces.

My guess would be that the design is similar, but made of some newer materials.

Yes. I had a set of these which I used almost everyday for a year and one lace began to fray. I called their customer service, sent a pic via email along with a copy of my receipt and I had a new set within a week..awesome customer service and great laces...!!

yes. The ones that I have are with red logo in front. That being said, my son has the "older" version and there really is no difference. I have been very pleased with these supports. Keep in mind, these will provide excellent support, but no device will completely prevent you from a potential injury. I would assume if you are playing at a very high level, you will still need to tape your ankles too.

I hate the new one too! I bought this because the close up picture is like the old ones, and I was surprised when the package arrived. I started having terrible tooth sensitivity on my upper cuspids and realized it was due to the new mouth guard. I readjusted the guard and the sensitivity is not as bad, but I really don't like the new version.

Which new ones are you referring to? I have the gripper ones and they're pretty good, they do provide extra grip but if you don't get them loose enough, they start to dig into the webbing between your thumb and palm. But then if you don't get them tight enough, they could fall off. They're pretty good but I can only speak for the gripper ones

yes, they are. I was thinking the same thing, I did my research and they are the same ones, just a older model from the ones in the website. its all just looks on the new ones. There isn't really a big change. I 100% recommend them. =]

I bought two sets for my daughter and son. They run pretty true on size. They are freaking awesome. Can't say enough about them. I did a lot of research and both my kids had pretty serious ankle injuries at the time. The braces helped them get back much sooner and my daughter started wearing them for all three of her sports, volleyball, basketball, and soccer.

Good question. Sometimes it depends on the shoes, but in most cases you don't have to remove your current insoles. If you really want a better support, I found that Dr. Scholls were too week and that while they were comfortable, they didn't give me as much support as real custom fit orthotics like surethotic.com did. They are ten times better and last about ten times longer. Surethotics are awesome when it comes to helping my feet get the support they need along with the great comfort from their cushion tops.

It's the same thing. The newer versions, the the cushion part of the straps come off by velcro, where as in the past you had to remove them by removing the straps from the base. I think that is the only difference.

Not sure which version it is, but I can say they are very comfortable. We use them a lot!

I have not see the original but these are what I would call a thin profile. There is a nice strong arch support built in and firm heel support. I bought more of these because of the huge difference I noticed with them. I used to have leg hip n back pain. Not anymore. I keep one set of these in my dress shoes where I did not take the original soles out and it fits fine.

No. As ankle supports go this one is good. The thickest part (still not real thick) is above a low cut shoe.

I'm not exactly sure though I think I bought the ultra....and wow were they amazing compared to regular crutches. I've loaned them to three other people who said they were fantastic. I highly recommend them. I had a broken ankle and needed them for about 6 weeks and they were so much easier to use and so much more comfortable. Peggy

The advantage is that is very quick to put on. No real disadvantage - other than with lace up you could go tighter, however at that point you are cutting off some circulation to your foot. Save lots of time. I would say a little more comfortable.

If you have bad ankles, this ankle brace with work. I have a bad Achilles for years because of having really bad flat feet. I went to all kinds of orthopedics with no success. One orthopedic recommended these and I have been using them ever since (2 years). I can't walk without them. Excellent product!

I wish I could help you more...I was fitted by orthopedic doctor after my "boot" was removed from my hairline fracture/sprained ankle. I am a solid women's size 9 and they put me in a small. I ordered a 2nd one from amazon as a backup and to wash first one( hang dry) as I had to wear it all day for 8 weeks. It is a very good ankle wrap. I will still be using it for racquet sports. Hope this helps!

The cross straps provide excellent support in comparison to standard lace up braces. I weigh 275 so stepping on someone's foot can put quite a bit of stress on my ankle. Standard lace up braces are good for some support but have never helped me much in injury prevention. Given I recently broke my ankle the additional straps were a must. Hope this helps
