AFO

The Brown Medical Steady Strider AFO is a lightweight yet highly effective ankle foot orthoses that straps around the lower leg (a few inches above the ankle) and extends down under the tongue of the shoe. This product provides effective treatment for mild to moderate cases of foot drop where the individual has some ability to dorsiflex the ankle, but requires light assistance to help clear the foot off the ground with ambulation. This foot drop AFO fits easily into any shoe with a tongue, and has a minimal appearance unlike many typical bulky models. The AFO has a simple, clean design and can be attached around the leg for immediate use in seconds.
