Ankle brace for sprains that supports and stabilizes the ankle during sports practice without hindering movement.

Indications for the Ergostrap® sports ankle brace

Are you apprehensive about returning to sports after your sprain? You can now trust your footing thanks to the Ergostrap® Sport EPITACT® ankle brace!

This ankle brace for sprains supports and stabilizes the fragile ankle (following mild to moderate external sprains, chronic ankle instability, ligament laxity).

Thanks to the combination of reinforcements at the malleoli and silicone strapping, it secures the ankle without restricting movement. It thus promotes the continuation and resumption of your activities. For optimal comfort, its reinforcements are thermoformable: they perfectly adapt to your body shape.

Usage instructions

  • Wash before first use and after use.
  • Thermoform the ankle brace before use.
  • Wear the ankle brace over a sufficiently high sock to avoid discomfort during use. If you use compression sleeves on your calves, place them underneath the Ergostrap™ Sport as well.
  • Do not use it statically but only during your activity.

How to thermoform the ankle brace for sprains?

Thermoforming involves adapting the shape of the lateral reinforcements of the ankle brace to your body shape. It can be repeated 4 to 5 times and is done at home in just a few minutes.

Contraindications for the sports ankle brace

  • Do not use the Ergostrap® on a skin lesion.
  • Do not use in case of arteritis, diabetes, polyneuropathy, or neuropathy of the lower limbs. In case of doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

How to maintain your ankle brace?

The ankle brace for sprains is machine washable at 30 °C or hand wash (without scrubbing) with water and soap. Do not use detergent or stain remover (bleach, acetone, solvent, etc.). Let it dry naturally. Do not expose to heat (> 50 °C). Discard and replace the device as soon as signs of fabric or seam degradation appear.

Frequently asked questions

Can the sports ankle brace be used if the ankle is swollen?

Yes, because the thermoformable reinforcements adapt to the body shape. Once the swelling has gone down, you can remold the reinforcements to match the joint's volume.

Can the ankle brace be worn without the strapping or reinforcements?

The purpose of the ankle brace for sprains is to secure the unstable ankle by limiting its lateral movements. Therefore, it is necessary to use at least the thermoformable reinforcements or the strapping over the ankle brace. For optimal effectiveness, we recommend using both.

How to choose the right size?

Using a measuring tape, measure the circumference of your ankle just above the malleoli. Refer to the size chart available at the bottom of the page. If you are between two sizes, it is better to choose the smaller one.
