The ASO is
one of the top three most popular and best ranked braces
for prevention of ankle sprains.
Tennis pros and basketball players use the ASO ankle brace
probably as much if not more than any other brace.
This is the brace Andy Roddick has worn.
The other two top ranked braces are the Bio Skin TriLok and
the T2 Active Ankle which is used for Volleyball players.
All are great braces.

The ASO is less bulky than competitive ankle braces.
Fits comfortably inside the wearer's normal athletic or
street shoe. What Gives Here? Athletic tape can stretch,
or "give", after some wear time - and does not recover.
The ASO, however, has non-stretch straps that can be
retightened anytime...without even removing the shoe!
Utilizing the ASO versus tape during the course of a
season - especially during practice sessions - can
result in considerable cost savings.
The medical Specialties ASO (Ankle Stabilizing Orthosis)
fits easily into an athletic or street shoe. The ASO is
made of thin, durable ballistic nylon - the same protective
material used by law enforcement and military personnel.
Superior support is achieved through exclusive non-stretch
nylon stabilizing straps that mirror the stirrup technique
of an athletic taping application. The calcaneus is
captured, effectively locking the heel.
Developed with the support of C. Steven Yates, ATC, MED Head
Athletic Trainer, Wake Forest University, the ASO offers
many advantages when compared to both competitive ankle
braces and traditional athletic tape applications.
The ASO is specifically indicated for: Treatment of injured
ankles. Prevention of re-injury. Prevention of ankle injury.
