The Donjoy Velocity Ankle Brace provides extra support to the ankle joint and helps prevent ankle sprains. The brace is ideal for preventing a future ankle injury, as well as, for treating a current injury. The Velocity ankle brace is available in three styles for injury protection: a stand-alone shell (LS version), or with speed wrap softgoods (Velocity ES and MS styles) for compression and additional support. The R3 rapid ratchet closure system provides easy fitting and a heat moldable shell design for providing a more customized fit. The low-profile, semi-rigid shell is designed to fit inside cleats, as well, as other types of athletic shoes with minimal bulk. The Donjoy Velocity is lightweight and prevents abnormal amounts of inversion, eversion, and rotation motions while allowing natural flexion of your foot up and down inside your shoe - perfect for both treatment and prevention of ankle sprains. This brace is a popular model especially for athletes playing contact sports such as football, rugby, field hockey, and soccer.

Velocity ES is necessary for my ankle
I have used this same brace now for the last three years for my ankle that healed from a serious fracture. The strap on top helps cinch up the top of the ankle brace while the ES wrap below gives my ankle the extra support that I need just for everyday walking. Ordering was easy, and the sizing chart was true to size.

Great support with the ES
I've had a history of ankle sprains and my doctor recommended trying this ES model. The softgoods lace-up portion really adds to the brace and the support is very good. The brace arrived a couple of days after I ordered it. Thank s for the fast delivery.
Quality high ankle sprain Brace
My daughter’s physical therapist recommended this ankle brace because it would provide the support she needs to alleviate further injury and to allow her high ankle sprain to heal properly. Although physical therapy and inactivity have jointly been making her ankle better, it is clear that this Velocity ES brace helps. She doesn’t wear the it all the time but uses it when she needs it.
Top brace for security
The Donjoy Velocity is my go-to 'no sprain' guaranteed ankle brace for the period after injury that I want to start re-building strength by walking or exercise but absolutely can't risk more ligament damage. When you wear it with a shoe your ankle is basically locked upright and can't roll. I've only every used the Light Support (LS) version which I find to be good enough. Just two points to note: By itself the LS version can't really be used without shoes as the foot pad kind of flaps around. If not wearing shoes I'd usually just combine it with a light elastic support to prevent this. In my opinion this is a post-recovery brace for use once you return to physical activity, as it doesn't offer as much compression as a neoprene sleeve would, or for example the aircast sport. Again however it can be combined with a neoprene or elastic support. In summary this is a top product and as a serial ankle-sprainer (20+ on my right ankle in the last 10 years) I can't think how much more time I'd have spent on crutches without it!
Excellent product!
Excellent product, excellent service. Thank you!
Velocity ES for football
I'm having my son use the Velocity ES for football protection and so far he's been happy with them. The support is very good and they fit inside his his cleats without any difficulty.
Daughter wears it for softball
This is the second one of these braces we have had. She lost the first one. She really liked the stability it gave her ankle while playing softball, and it's very comfortable and easy to run in. She wears it whenever she plays, practices, or has a game. Well constructed, would definitely recommend it to others with a history of spraining their ankle.
Very happy with this brace~~replacing a lost one.
My daughter severely sprained her ankle and loves to play softball, so we purchased this brace to give her extra support. She lost her first one so we are purchasing a second one. She is very happy with the comfort and range of motion of this brace, fits inside her high top cleats. Would definitely recommend this brace.
Luv My Donjoy Velocity Ankle Brace
I love my Donjoy Velocity ankle brace. I got the ES designed for my particular ankle injury - injured it last year and had to have surgery to make it stable again. I like that you can heat up the shell with your hairdryer to create more of a custom mold for a better fit. The softgooods on the ES model also provide the best support so if you have sprained your ankles repeatedly in the past or have had some type of surgery, this is a good brace to have.
Velocity Ankle Brace Rocks!
I got the Donjoy Velocity ES for football because of spraining my ankles last year. The ES was awesome and fit well out of the box - I didn't need to heat it up at all. The wrap laces up in the front and then velcros down on the sides. Our school doesn't have a budget for tape so this was one of the best choices for protecting my ankles. I really like them and would recommend them to other football players.
