Key FeaturesRemovable Day-to-Night Sole Connector System: This soft AFO is built with a detachable foot section that can be used differently throughout the day and night. During daytime wear, the brace can pair with lace-up shoes for walking support, then reconnect at night for corrective positioning that helps reduce rebound.Dorsiflexion Lift Strap with Multi-Loop Routing: The front lift strap runs from the ankle cuff to the forefoot wrap through reinforced guide loops, creating an upward pull that helps keep the toes from dragging and encourages a more natural step.3mm Neoprene Soft AFO Construction: Made from 3mm-thick neoprene, the brace delivers flexible support with a softer feel than rigid plastic orthotics, helping cushion the ankle and foot while remaining comfortable for extended wear.High Ankle Wrap with Hook-and-Loop Compression Closure: The tall ankle cuff wraps securely above the joint and fastens with broad hook-and-loop closures, helping stabilize the ankle area while allowing fast tension adjustments.Forefoot Cradle with Open-Toe Design: The front section wraps around the forefoot rather than enclosing the entire foot, leaving the toes open while still giving the lift strap a firm anchor point for foot-up assistance.Reinforced Low-Profile Strap Guides: Bright reinforced loop guides along the brace help keep the tension strap aligned as it moves, reducing twisting and helping maintain consistent upward support through walking and rest.Universal Left-or-Right Foot Fit: The adjustable layout is designed for either foot, making it easy to fit on the right or left side without needing separate versions.Discreet Soft Profile for Indoor and Shoe-Assisted Use: Unlike bulky hard-shell AFOs, this brace has a slim, soft profile intended for use during sleep, indoor wear, rehabilitation routines, and with appropriate lace-up footwear outdoors.Suitable ForFoot drop support during walking and daily mobilityNighttime positioning to help reduce rebound while sleeping or restingStroke-related foot drop and gait assistanceNeuromuscular weakness affecting ankle lift and toe clearancePlantar fasciitis with added arch and foot positioning supportAchilles tendonitis discomfort requiring gentle foot and ankle supportAnkle joint discomfort and pain during movementImpaired gait and walking instability with increased toe-drag riskPhysical therapy and rehabilitation routines focused on safer steppingIndoor mobility when transitioning out of outdoor footwear-based bracesSize GuideThis brace is One Size Fits Most and is designed to fit either the left or right foot.SizeMeasurement AreaFit RangeOne SizeAnkle CircumferenceUp to 12 inchesSizing Tips:Measure around the narrowest part of the ankle to confirm your circumference is within the 12-inch maximum.The hook-and-loop ankle cuff allows you to fine-tune compression for a more secure fit.If you plan to wear the brace with shoes during the day, test the fit with lace-up footwear for best strap alignment.The universal design fits either foot, but the lift strap should be adjusted so it creates a comfortable upward pull without over-tightening.Product SpecificationsItemDetailsProduct NameSoft AFO Foot-Up Drop Foot Brace for Day & Night SupportModelOber AO-38 Soft AFO Foot Up BraceCategoryFoot BraceSuitable Body PartFoot, ankle, and forefootMaterial3mm neopreneColorBlack with neon yellow/green reinforced strap guidesSize OptionsOne size fits most adultsFit RangeMaximum ankle circumference: 12 inchesClosure TypeHook-and-loop closures with contact buckles / strap guidesAdjustableYesSide CompatibilityLeft and right footSupport LevelModerate soft supportRecommended UseDay and night use, walking, daily mobility, sleeping, resting, physical therapy, rehabilitation, indoor and outdoor use with appropriate lace-up footwearCare Instructionsmachine wash cold on gentle cycle; air dry completely; do not tumble dry; do not bleach, iron, or dry cleanPackage IncludesOber AO-38 Soft AFO Foot Up BracePackage IncludesOber AO-38 Soft AFO Foot Up Brace × 1Frequently Asked QuestionsQ1: How does the day-and-night design work? A: This soft AFO uses a removable foot/sole component so you can adapt it to different situations. During the day, it can be used with lace-up shoes for walking support, and at night the foot and ankle sections can be connected for corrective positioning to help reduce rebound.Q2: What makes this different from a rigid plastic AFO? A: This brace uses 3mm neoprene and a soft strap-based design instead of a hard shell. That gives you a more flexible, cushioned feel while still providing dorsiflexion assistance through its front lift strap and ankle-to-forefoot connection.Q3: What do the front strap and reinforced loops do? A: The front strap threads through reinforced guide loops between the ankle cuff and forefoot wrap, creating an upward lifting action. This helps raise the front of the foot, improve toe clearance, and reduce dragging during walking.Q4: Can I wear this brace on either foot? A: Yes. The brace is designed for both right and left feet. Its universal wraparound construction and adjustable strap system allow it to be configured for either side.Q5: How do I know if the size will fit me? A: This is a one-size-fits-most design for adults, with a maximum ankle circumference of 12 inches. Measure your ankle before use, then adjust the hook-and-loop closures for a snug but comfortable fit.Q6: Can I wear it with shoes during the day? A: Yes. It is intended for daytime use with appropriate lace-up footwear. The shoe helps support the brace setup while the lift strap assists with foot-up positioning during walking and daily mobility.Q7: Is this brace only for foot drop? A: No. In addition to foot drop, it is also designed for users dealing with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, neuromuscular weakness, ankle joint discomfort, and impaired gait or walking instability.Q8: Should I use this brace without medical advice? A: This product provides supportive positioning and gait assistance, but it is not a substitute for diagnosis or personalized medical care. If you have circulation problems, severe swelling, skin sensitivity, or a complex neurological or orthopedic condition, consult a healthcare professional before use.
