BETTERGUARDS-US

After struggling with tape and other ankle braces for years, I wanted to find the lightest-weight brace that would still give me the support I need and let me still move like I want to. I’m embracing the minimalist approach of The BetterGuard because it’s actually much better for us to have freedom of movement in an ankle brace vs. wearing the enormous ankle braces people used to play in before.

As an athletic trainer who has worked for over 30 years, at every level of sport: from high school to NCAA Division I & II, and then onto professional sport in the NFL and NBA, I have had the opportunity to see multiple innovative products come onto the market over the years, that have made an incredible impact on performance as well as injury prevention for athletes across all levels of play. The most recent innovation that has become a game changer for athletes is The BetterGuard ankle brace. The lightweight and comfortable brace is second to none in their design for comfort and performance for the athlete, but the key to its uniqueness is their next level protection that is unlike any other ankle brace in the world.  Their patented "Protection System" is one of a kind and cannot be found in any other brace on the market. I highly recommend The BetterGuard brace for any athlete that is looking for support and protection without sacrificing performance, movement and comfort.

My NBA career ended early due to ankle injuries that occurred over and over again. They are inevitable in our game. With The BetterGuard available, I am happy to represent a product that will help to prevent others from going through the same experiences I had. The fact that the product offers such great comfort makes it the perfect fit for use in professional sports. Because as an athlete, you want a product that won’t restrict you in your performance.

The BetterGuard has been very beneficial on a few of my athletes with ankle problems, both acute and chronic. The issue with most ankle braces is the bulky and clunky feel and the constant adjust and re-adjust. With BetterGuards there is none of that. The sleeve sock is very comfortable and very easy to use. But most importantly is the amount of support that the brace provides in that lateral ankle. Athletes have the freedom to move all while feeling the support. This product is a game changer.

The BetterGuard is the best ankle protection with an integrated mini-piston & closure system that works like a safety harness for ankle joints, it provides a full range of motion with protection in critical situations.

I feel all players should wear The BetterGuard — not just in practice but, also in games — because injury is such a big part of the game. I think the injury rate is 100% in football. I personally suffered an ankle injury my second year and missed the whole year. I definitely could've used The BetterGuard a couple years ago, but I'm happy to have it now.

When I play with The BetterGuard I hardly feel it at all. I feel like I can cut and kick exactly how I want to. It’s just nice knowing I have that extra support without feeling like I have an ankle brace on.

The first time I tried it on I knew it was different than any of the braces I tried before. Similar to tape, it’s super lightweight and fits easily inside my shoes, but The BetterGuard is way more convenient. During games, if your ankle starts to twist then you can feel The BetterGuard adapter tighten so it stops your ankle from turning. Then it goes back to normal so fast it’s like you don’t have to worry about it slowing you down at all.
