INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEAT MOLDABLE FOOT PLATE:
- Remove inner liner and outer shell (ES version).
- Apply heat evenly to the area of interest using a heat gun. Heat molding the foot plate should be performed by medical professionals only. Do not use an oven, boiling water, or any heat source other than a heat gun. Do not heat foot plate to more than 300F as melting may occur. Do not attempt to heat mold any component other than the foot plate. If heated, the rivets will readily burn bare skin.
- Manually form desired changes with gloved hands prior to cooling. Do not attempt to form components against bare skin.
- Reheat and continue forming as necessary.
- The foot plate will retain heat after heat source is removed. Allow sufficient cooling time prior to making contact with bare skin.
USE AND CARE:
The Achilles pad may be trimmed and the lace guide on the tongue may be adjusted to fit individual variations in leg, ankle joint, and foot shape. For single patient use only.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
Hand wash soft goods with mild soap in cold water. Rinse thoroughly. Air dry. NOTE: If not rinsed thoroughly, residual soap may cause skin irritation or deteriorate material.
DonJoy Velocity Gets 4 out of 5 Stars ****
Here's a recent review of the Velocity Ankle Brace from Kevin Tisue for About.com.
The Velocity ankle braces are the best ankle braces I have ever used. The DonJoy Velocity Ankle brace provides a huge amount of support side to side, and it's compact design fit into every shoe we tried.
We ran this ankle brace through nearly a full season of riding without as much as a hint of ankle injury. This was particularly good for me since an x-ray of one of my ankles has a close resemblance to the screw bins at a hardware store.
Pros
- Excellent, bomber, hinged ankle brace support.
- Compact, low profile design fits inside your shoe.
- Quick in and out.
- Good fit adjustment
Cons
- Velcro straps started to curl making insertion into shoe more difficult.
