The IN STEP Posterior Lateral AFO is designed to increase ankle and knee stability when there is mild to moderate ankle weakness. The contoured footplate allows for smooth rollover and progressive stiffness to slow tibial progression yet remains stable in the coronal plane. This design can be utilized with a custom foot orthosis for increased control. The material matrix provides a durable and lightweight design, with a Calf cuff for support. Posterior - Lateral strut offers a low-profile aspect that fits inside almost any shoe. Easy application, and footplate can be trimmed to fit.
Weight Limit is 220lbs.
