I am looking at getting one of these. Sorry it doesn’t work for you man. I have severe pain in foot. I can barely walk any more. I need something that keeps my foot from dorsiflexion because as soon as my weight transfer to the front of my foot I have serious pain all across the ball of my foot. I am considering amputation but i think something like this might buy me some a few more years before I have to do that. Is this product shit? I will never be able to run. I am just looking to be able to walk my kids to the park and be able to walk/stand while I am at work.

Hi. My views exactly, I like the Turbomed because it's good for some activities I like to do, gives you comfort for your foot as it fits on the outside. At the same time I don't always like to have my disability exposed. I'm afraid it's your choice, whatever works for you.

Sometimes people ask what it's for, I just smirk and tell them it allows me to run and jump higher lol. Because of my low back and nerve impingement, I avoid jumping activities as it puts strain on my L5-S1 joint. It works great with easy hiking trails, biking, and daily ADL's. It's not as hidden as a insert/shoe drop brace, so mentally wearing it arround, you fell a bit self conscious, but that faded for me a while ago.
