Betterguards intelligent ankle brace technology protects from common ankle injuries without sacrificing freedom of movement. During normal activity, The BetterGuard offers a full range of motion. In the event of sudden twisting or rolling, the mini piston activates to stabilize the ankle, allowing your body time to react before a serious injury can occur.

The adaptive Betterguards technology is the multi-patented adaptive mini piston. The technology is developed by German engineers and is designed to protect athletes from common ankle injuries, such as sudden twisting or rolling, without sacrificing freedom of motion.

The most common ankle injury is a lateral ankle sprain, and The BetterGuard ankle brace reduces the risk of severe ankle sprains by reducing the amount of lateral ankle inversion and or supination movement in the event of sudden ankle rolling or turning. The brace is designed to stabilize the ankle during high-velocity inversion and or supination movements, providing stabilization and time to react before injury occurs.

The BetterGuard is ideally suited for those who want to protect their ankles from common and frequent ankle injuries. Its responsive ankle bracing technology can benefit those who are at high risk of ankle turning or rolling during sports, work, or other high-risk activities. It can also be used for recovery after an injury to prevent re-injury during the rehabilitation process. It's important to consult your doctor or healthcare provider to find out if The BetterGuard is right for you.

The BetterGuard is being worn by professionals and amateurs in almost every sport including Basketball, Football, Soccer, Volleyball, Tennis, Hiking, Running, Handball, and many more.

Because of the lightweight comfortable, and sleek design of The BetterGuard, it will fit in any athletic shoe or cleat. We recommend low-top shoes for best results.

To find the right size for you, please refer to our size chart. If you are between two sizes, you should use your ankle circumference as a guide. For instance, if you have a slim foot, ankle, and calf area, we recommend choosing a smaller size. If you're not sure, order the larger size.
