The Ossur AFO Leaf Spring is a low profile, polypropylene ankle foot orthoses with a new low profile, energy return design that is more flexible than traditional models. This Ossur AFO product features a more rigid vertical aspect in the rear for good lifting capacity, along with a thinner, more flexible foot section for easy trimming at home. The foot section can be trimmed to the desired shape and size with a pair of scissors and there is no need to heat or trim plastic around the ankle malleoli which get irritated with daily use. Lightweight polypropylene and the absence of a heel section makes this AFO Leaf Spring more comfortable to wear, and provides a excellent fit inside any men's or women's shoes.  The traditional AFO has been taken and redesigned for a lightweight product that is designed specifically for maximizing energy all at an affordable price.  NOTE:  Beware of websites offering other models and advertising them as an AFO Leaf Spring
