Hello,
We don't have a picture of the stays as they appear within the brace, but the stays are included in the price of the item.

How flexible is the material. Does it form to shape of foot? I have an older Procare lace-up model that is 85% vinyl, is not flexible, and quickly irritated the ankle
Question by: Robert Beckmann on Sep 2, 2011, 8:16 PM
This a canvas material, so it will be more of a stiff material. I would suggest looking at the A60 or Airsport, either of those have a material that will form to the foot better.

The size chart does not say if it's for men or women. So I am not sure how to find my size. The Med is for 8 1/2 to 10. Is this a womens size?
Question by: Sharon Story on Aug 21, 2012, 5:16 AM
The numbers are not based on shoe size, it's based on ankle circumference. Measure at an angle from the top of the heel, around both ankle bones.
Answer by: Admin on Aug 21, 2012, 5:16 AM
Could you please provide a diagram of what part of the ankle to measure around? I'm still a little unsure. I've had my ankle circumference measured in several different locations before. Thank you.

Hello, Mya -
Unfortunately we do not have diagrams available. When measuring your ankle, you start at the top of your ankle joint, where your ankle flexes. You take your tape measure and wrap it around your ankle, beneath the heel of your foot and back around to the original starting point.
If you have further questions, please feel free to contact our product specialists at 888-405-3251.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Also, can the ankle brace be machine washed (like on the gentle cycle) if it gets dirty or smells? If not, how should I clean it?
Question by: Mya on Apr 26, 2013, 4:25 PM
Hello, Mya -
The ankle brace is washable, however we do not recommend that it be put into a washing machine or dryer. Our washing instructions are to wash by hand in lukewarm water with a mild soap and water and all for it to air dry. In the past customers have soaked the brace in a mild soap (Woolite).

Would this be a good brace for Kite Surfing? I've tried the Don Joy Velocity brace, but the Velcro straps don't stay fastened because of the water. I think a lace up brace would be better. Your thoughts?
Question by: Hunter on Aug 27, 2013, 9:20 AM
This product would be excellent brace for that.

What about measurements when it comes to an ankle that currently has injury and is swollen. The good ankle is about an inch less in circumference
Question by: Monica on Feb 1, 2014, 7:14 AM
If you want to wear this brace once the swelling has gone down, and the difference is between two different sizes, go with the smaller of the two. The braces tend to run a little big and once the swelling goes down you will need the brace to fit well

I need support for alpine skiing. Broke ankle a year
Ago and notice some pain weakness on hard snow. Would this be a good brace for inside a ski boot

Question by: Steve Wilson on Feb 15, 2014, 5:47 PM
This brace will offer you good support. Some people don’t mind the brace in the boot others do not like the semi rigid portion in the boot. The rigid piece in the DonJoy Stabilizing Pro ankle brace is removable, that may be a better option. If you do not like the feel of the rigid piece it can be removed and still offer you support.

Is the heel enclosed or exposed in this brace?
Question by: Beverly on Feb 25, 2014, 6:43 AM
This brace has an exposed heel. Thank you for your question.
Answer by: Admin on Feb 25, 2014, 6:43 AM
How stable are the sides? Is it a metal plate inside that keeps it from bending, and is this good for wearing during sports like basketball?
Question by: Philip on Apr 7, 2014, 3:43 PM
Philip
The stays are plastic. I would suggest the DonJoy Stabilizing Pro ankle brace it is a little more rigid than the Procare, but you can still fit into a shoe and play basketball
