Can these be worn while playing basketball, or are they to be used after you already have an ankle injury?

Yes, and I highly recommend it for anyone with a tender ankle. After rolling my ankle last year I had a hard time jumping off my left ankle out of fear, but when I started using the Aso supporter is gave me the confidence to do it. It's the best ankle supported I've used thus far. Hope this helps

Yes. My son play outfield for his HS team and speed is essential both in the OF and running the bases. Does not restrict his running ability for a 2 hour game and offers great ankle support.

I sprained my ankle pkaying basketball, and once it was healed although to get back out there I wore this for added assurance. I still wear it whether I play tennis, bball or any other sport that requires quick lateral movement. Highly recommend this product as a preventative brace.

It may work I brought mine for a ankle injury. To keep my ankle stable and compressed because I work in a kitchen for 9 hours on my feet.

Hello, the answer is: Both. Better if you use them before injuries while playing sports, but if you have any injury you can use them for recovery and avoid the pain of walk and misstep. Regards...

I don't think that's what this is meant for. This is so you can keep hockey socks from falling down. There's a clip on each end to connect to the socks. I don't even know what you'd attach it to for basketball or football or running.

I don't see why not. I play tennis with the brace and forget I am even wearing it (although it does get pretty warm in the summer). I also do a lot of running around on the tennis court with a lot of pretty fast starts and stops - I believe at least as much most anyone does on a basketball court. So, yes in my opinion no problem with the brace and a basketball court.

Dear Matt.: regarding to your question, my answer is YES, these protective glasses are for soccer, baseball, basketball, and they are just great...!!

Yes. I wear mine around my ankle all the time around the house; especially if I am at risk of getting it wet when doing housework or working out on the elliptical. When I'm going to leave the house, I wrap it around my ankle and pull my sock up over the band so it won't accidentally get knocked off my leg.

I use the brace to play basketball after my acl replacement. The metal on the sides prevents lateral movement. And the lock prevents hyper extension. Your knee will only bend as it's supposed to. No problem with pushing off and landing. I recommend it.

This product can be used when you play sports, It gives added support to the ankle that is not provided by a pair of shoes.

I do use them for tennis. But then I have really expensive, supportive tennis shoes on, like asics gels on. My problem is more my knees, so with these it corrected the supination that I have, so my knees hurt less. The asics, and the prince T22's and the nike shoes I wear keep me from having ankle problems.

For a serious ankle injury or surgery I would recommend the tall boot; it immobilizes the ankle more fully. After my ankle surgery, and even now when my ankle flares up badly, I wear my tall boot. I wear the short boot for minor ankle pains and flare ups (I periodically get gout inflammations) because the short boot is more mobile and convenient. I also see people wear the short boot for foot issues.

It doesn't restrict your movement, it just adds more support to your ankle. I hope this answers your question

I don't play tennis. I assume they would be good for tennis players, knowing that they're helpful for soccer players. They provide good compression of the ankle joint without diminishing flexibility.

I haven't tried them as ankle weights but I did buy a different one for my ankles when I run, also Reebok. You should just get that one -- they're perfect.

Sorry, but I don't know the answer. I used it when my ankle gets tender from an injury I had some 10 years ago. For my pourpose it works fine.

For sports, I would purchase something more robust. I have bad ankles and I wanted something more than an Ace elastic sleeve.

I would say you can, I wear it with my high top sneakers while playing ball. It was a matter of breaking it in and after that you forget it's there. I would imagine your boots have been broken in so that'll alleviate that part. I would recommend wearing the brace and boots around the house to get things going. It is a thin brace with great support, I would suggest you go with this over any other brand as I did my homework and shopped around. Good luck!
