Support and comfort for mild foot drop:

- The lift is regulated by the placement of the hooks and elastic straps
- Soft end flexible, for indoor and outdoor use M
- D-ring can be used to hold the straps together for a discreet silhouette
This orthosis features a low-profile textile ankle section that fastens above the malleoli (the bony prominence of the ankle). The ankle section is connected using an elastic cord with hooks, which are secured beneath the lacing or within the lacing holes on the shoe. This mechanism provides elevation for the forefoot during ambulation. You can adjust the level of elevation by altering the placement of the hooks or the strap on the ankle section. Additionally, there is a supplementary D-ring to fasten the straps together. ToeUP also offers an optional foot part component for indoor use. It is important to use ToeUP in conjunction with a sock.
