Ossur Foot Up AFO with Shoeless Attachment

Need relief from drop foot whether or not you're wearing shoes? The Ossur Foot Up AFO with Shoeless Attachment includes the Ossur Foot Up Foot Drop AFO Support and the Ossur Foot Up Shoeless Attachment. This bundle is the perfect combination for those suffering from drop foot, allowing the AFO to be used with or without shoes.

What's Included?

1 x Ossur Foot Up AFO
1 x Ossur Foot Up Shoeless Attachment

How Does the Ossur Foot Up Support Drop Foot?

The Ossur Foot Up Foot Drop Support is a lightweight ankle-foot orthosis that offers dynamic support for drop foot, peroneal neuropathies and dysfunctional gait plus other similar complaints. This revolutionary support provides visible improvement in gait by supporting the foot the moment it is raised.

Can I Wear the Foot Up and Shoeless Bundle with Any Shoes?

The Foot Up with Shoeless Add-On is not only helpful for relieving foot drop with or without shoes, it is also exceptionally helpful for shoes that are not easily compatible with the normal Foot Up system. This includes sandals, flip-flops and Mary Jane-style shoes.

We would recommend that you stay away from high top and high laced up boots, as you may find that the product does not fit you properly. Otherwise, it will be perfect for most types of shoes, including ordinary trainers and work shoes.

How Can the Ossur Foot Up Help Me Walk?

Designed to counter the effects of drop-foot, the Ossur Foot Up is well suited for people that are suffering from neurological impairments such as a stroke or a condition such as Charcot Marie Tooth. For more information, please watch the video below:

The Ossur Foot Up Shoeless Add-On should be used in conjunction with the Ossur Foot Up Foot Drop Support. Please note that if you suffer from sensitive skin or are at risk of skin ulcerations or infections, you should consult a medical professional before using the product.

Then, place the ankle strap above the widest part of the ankle and fasten tightly.

Place the inlay between the tongue and shoelaces and pull the strap between lace lines.
Correct the ankle strap and the inlay by pushing the two parts of the quick-acting closure together as indicated in picture four.

This product is costly but I have been using my existing one for nearly 4 years now and I'm only buying a new one as I need a different colour, it's a great support and I wouldn't use any thing else it allow you to have a different choice in shoes as well as going bear foot from time to time.

Bought these for my son as he wanted a more discreet AFO. Initially was sceptical but boy was I shocked. They’ve given the gift of mobility back to him.

Good but has its limitations

Works well either with the 'bare-feet' device or with conventional shoes with a tongue and laces and the 'standard' device. But if you have swollen or otherwise 'odd' feet you probably have other types of shoe - and whether it works with these is tricky. It's really a test of your ingenuity to see if you can find a way of fastening the lower part of the kit to your shoe/sandal/slipper/foot etcetera, so it both stands the strain of helping your foot to lift but doesn't twist about and dig into your foot and doesn't ruin the shoe.

Since receiving the Ossur Foot Up & Shoeless Bundle, my ability to walk has improved especially with the shoeless attachment, compared with the more solid ankle brace I have been using.
My only fear is that the velcro fastening on the foot section is strong enough, as it seems to pull pull away even if fitted tightly.

Good fit and mostly comfortable with slight tendancy to rub lower ankle and indentation from upper part as used longterm. More variety for skin colour useful. I think its expensive.
