The X-Fit Ankle Helix provides support in the “X” or Figure 8 pattern and helps young athletes, adults, men, or women move through the pain. This pattern is used to support injured soft tissues, tendons, and ligaments typically associated with acute ankle sprain or strain for easier injury recovery. Compression is a mainstay in the management of acute ankle injury to provide support and edema management.

The X-Fit is advised after acute injury management and has slightly less bulk than the Full Ankle Helix. The brace consists of comfortable, uniform, medical-grade compression in the range of 20-30 millimeters of mercury (or mmHg in the scientific community) The higher the number, the more pressure we feel.

Our sleeves utilize the heat from body sweat and allow the fabric to act like an adherent between skin and the X-fit Ankle Helix wraps. It won’t slip or move during activities. It provides comfortable compression for soft tissues. These features help prevent injury and re-injury.

Competitor wraps soak up sweat and take forever to dry, which often leads to unpleasant odors from bacteria becoming trapped within the fabric. The Helix technology won’t retain sweat or water. Experience uniform compression for ankle ligaments, distal Achilles tendons and proximal plantar foot structures. This Helix unburdens the ankle tendons injured with overuse syndromes or acute sprains, strains.

Young athletes will experience the highest quality compression material available and it will stretch more than the human body. This means an athlete or adult in casual, daily activity won’t need to alter mechanics of motion to serve, swing, bend, or run. Continue to play the game without limits.
