Our bracing solutions

EXO-L

exoL
An EXO-L ankle ligament brace worn over a sock and sports shoe on court

The EXO-L is not a conventional brace or tape designed to fix the joint in place. Instead, it works as an anatomical safety belt for the ankle, cleverly imitating human anatomy. Similar to a seat belt in a car, the strap only tightens when a specific, risky motion occurs — supporting the natural function of the ligament and preventing problematic movement when you are at risk of spraining your ankle.

Benefits
Prevents movement that causes ankle sprains while allowing full freedom of movement in other directions
Always fits perfectly as an unobtrusive extension of the user's own body and existing sports equipment
Can be used as a preventative measure to avoid sprains without affecting natural ankle stability
Does not take up space in the user's shoe and is easy to put on and adjust

EXO-L UP

exoLUP
An EXO-L UP foot-drop brace fitted to a running shoe with an adjustable cord

Specifically designed for those suffering foot drop, increasing mobility while remaining subtle and low profile. It includes an additional fully adjustable cord for achieving the required amount of toe lift, and is more durable than other 'up' braces on the market.

Helpful for those with neurological disorders such as drop foot, cerebral palsy and spina bifida.
Benefits
Can be put on and tightened without the help of an aid
Extremely comfortable and able to be worn for long periods without discomfort
