Ankle brace frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Which ankle brace is right for you?
Every BetterGuard ankle brace is built to keep your ankle safe and supported. Whether you want something light and flexible for everyday wear or a high-performance brace for sports, there’s a model that fits your lifestyle—and your ankle—perfectly.
What are the benefits of using an ankle brace?
Ankle braces provide stability, protection, and confidence for every step. They help prevent sprains, reduce the risk of re-injury, and support recovery after an injury. With BetterGuard ankle braces, you get adaptive support that reacts to risky movements while remaining flexible during normal motion. The result: enhanced performance, faster recovery, and lasting protection—whether on the field, in the gym, or throughout daily life.
What are the different types of ankle braces?
Ankle braces come in several styles—but not all are created equal:
Compression sleeves / soft supports: Lightweight and low-profile, but offer minimal support and won’t protect against serious twists or high-impact activity.
Semi-rigid braces: Provide moderate stabilization, but their plastic stays or straps can restrict natural movement and feel cumbersome during dynamic sports.
Lace-up braces: Adjustable and snug, yet often bulky and difficult to put on, and they may loosen with activity, limiting both comfort and performance.
Rigid braces: Maximum protection, but they limit mobility, making everyday movement and athletic performance awkward.
The BetterGuard difference: Maximum support + Maximum performance:
BetterGuard combines adaptive protection, flexibility, and comfort. Its patented system reacts in milliseconds to risky movements, locking only when needed while staying fully flexible during normal activity. The result is elite ankle protection without compromise, keeping you confident, mobile, and supported—whether in training, competition, or daily life.
Does taping ankles really work?
Ankle taping can provide temporary support, but it comes with limitations. Tape loses effectiveness quickly during activity, can be inconsistent, and often restricts natural movement. In contrast, a BetterGuard ankle brace delivers reliable, all-day ankle support that reacts to risky movements in milliseconds, protects without limiting mobility, and can be worn repeatedly for training, competition, or daily use.
How do you tell if you need ankle support?
You may benefit from ankle support if you:
- Are recovering from an injury
- Have a history of sprains or chronic instability
- Feel weakness or discomfort during activity
- Participate in high-impact sports or training
- Want to prevent injury and maintain confidence in movement
