Product Description

ZenToes Ankle Pad Sleeves offer ankle bone protection, so you will no longer have to deal with ankle bone pain. During roller skating, skiing, ice skating, work boots, or while wearing braces, ski boots, or splints, each sock has two gel pads to protect both sides of your ankle bone from rubbing. You may find it painful to wear any kind of boot after ankle surgery, including your favorite pair, but now you can protect this delicate area and comfortably wear your favorite boots!
In addition to providing mild compression to reduce and prevent swelling of the ankle bones, the polymer gel helps to soothe and protect your ankle bones, giving you relief from pain associated with a fractured ankle, or a broken ankle with hardware embedded.
In contrast to our competitors, ZenToes includes 2 sleeves (one pair) as a standard inclusion in each package of ankle pad socks, so you can protect and cushion BOTH ankles for less than the cost of just one sleeve. We have ankle pad sleeves that are comfortable and easy to use, regardless of whether you are interested in ice skating, hockey, hiking, or skiing.
A one-size-fits-most design - We use stretchy material to make our ankle bone sleeves fit people of every height and width. When you are ready to use it, just fold the sleeve over, pull over your foot, pull it up again, and adjust the pads over your ankle. You will feel the padding conform to your ankles, and you'll be held in place by the sleeve. Feel free to wear socks or without socks, based on how comfortable it is It can also be worn under a splint or brace in order to prevent painful friction.
They can be washed and reused - Made from a lightweight fabric and hypoallergenic gel, these ankle sleeves can be easily washed. Order your ZenToes Ankle Protector Sleeves today and feel confident that you will be completely satisfied!

Questions & Answers

Is the gel pad approximately the same thickness as the rest of the pad?

If the gel pads were squeezed to their full thickness, they would be about 4 mm thick

How easy is it to remove the pads? Are you saying I only need to pad the ankle on the outside?

There is no need to remove it from either side-it is a gel-like pad and is permanently attached to each side. I only use it on the outside, but it is comfortable enough to not bother me. Here is what I hope will help

There is a size chart available?

It is a size one fits most, however my mother has a large foot and swelling in her legs as a result of a heart condition and it fits her well.

Does this pair of ankle bone protection socks have the ability to be worn on both feet? Is this to say they have no left or ?

The silicone inserts are equally distributed on both sides of the symmetrical shoe. No matter whether they are worn on the left or right foot, they work.

A 100 percent effective way to avoid ankle pain
5/5

I bought speed skate from high quality company and got ankle pain after using it for one day. Then, I tried this product to avoid the pain. I didn't expect it to work 100% but I am glad it does. Here is a before and after photo of how it works.

This is an excessive size
3/5

The ankles on my skinny feet hurt in most boots, even the ones that aren't too tight. New boots don't even break in for me much of the time. There is no doubt that these gel pads help, and they are powerful enough to make it possible to wear new mountain climbing boots which would otherwise not be possible. With these pads, it may be possible to break in the boots sufficiently so that they are wearing without pads in the future. The fit of the product can be improved by tightening it up. My shoe size is 9 for men. I wear an approximately size 5 shoe and a medium to large sock, yet the fabric tubing is a bit loose, which results in the socks shifting a great deal. On top of that, there is a lot of fabric that causes bunching atop my foot, causing more pressure and discomfort. The only time I'd recommend it is if your foot and ankle are very large in diameter and Unless you are shopping for padding, you are most likely not looking for any.

This is an excellent deal! It works perfectly
5/5

I used to skate when you had to buy a "cookie" made of cotton. They Gel is what you see here. This is a nice wide circle so you'll get coverage wherever you need it. As if it was a second skin, it is strong and protective. You purchase these sleeves on the Bunga website, however, they are much more expensive, as you are purchasing them as part of In that case, this is a perfect replacement for that and a much better deal. When I wear these boots, my boots do not dig into me on the side I wear and I do not bleed. I wear this as a sock around the heel because I need the protection above my ankle where the boot rubs against my leg. I do not wear this where it should be (around the ankle as a boot). Wearing it higher up is more comfortable for me. Recently, I noticed it was lower than I needed it to be, so it slipped and got blood on it from my skates digging into it. put everything in the washing machine and it came out all right. Whatever the case may be, this gel pad is the most effective protection available. If you have a wound, you can continue skating pain-free with the gel pad it came with.

The pad helps to protect fractured bones after they have healed
5/5

After I fractured three bones in my ankle six months ago, I've been experiencing pain in those areas even after they've These socks will be used to cushion the bones when wearing The gel packs are great, but after I wear them a while, I find that they aren't as tight as when I first put them on. These pads provide a layer of protection for the It was hard for me to figure out which way the socks go on, but as long as the gel pads fit where you need them, it won't matter which way they go on.

I was very pleased with the product! If you have ankle pain, I would definitely recommend this product
5/5

Rolling these around on rollerblades provides pain relief for my ankles. After a month of doing long distance rollerblading, my ankles were in so much pain I had to take a break from it. The ankles on my feet have never been in pain after purchasing these. I was very pleased with the product! If you are experiencing ankle pain when rollerblading, this one is a must-have.

If you have an ankle fracture or are recovering from surgery, this product is beneficial
4/5

This product has been recommended to me for two different problems after I fractured both ankles in a freak accident. During the healing process, one side of my hand has a surgical incision that is still sensitive and needs to be protected with One side of the bone is fractured (end is broken off), so I am hoping there will be no need to have If the bone fragment is lying under an aircast or in a shoe, it should be padded to alleviate pressure. Both situations are handled well by this product. One issue with my feet is that they are swelling and making bad indents after several hours. This will be resolved with time and is not the fault of the product. One suggestion would be that the material could have a bit more give. These come in two packs. It costs $30 to buy a single sock at my doctor. For $11 or $12, you get two for one price. I find it to be much.

The price is reasonable and the quality is good with minimal compression! It is present) in my legs and feet (occluded iliac)
5/5

Since this is the case, I am prone to friction ulcers forming on my ankle bones (as a result of winter boots rubbing against my skin), which require Advanced Wound Care treatments to I was always under the impression that there must be some way to prevent ulcers from recurring once they were healed. A recurring event. I found the ZenToes to be the solution for my problem! I have very poor circulation, so it will hold its position within my socks, but it will not be too tight to impede it. Now that January of 2019 has passed, I have worn my winter boots for about two months straight (working outside every weekend in the cold weather of Pennsylvania), and have not seen any signs of wear. However, I cannot tell how long they will be more economical than the $40 they cost. At the advanced wound care center, there is a $100 copay each week! There is a breakeven point of about 4 pair per week on that. It's a bargain and it seems to work well, as well as last for a long time. *cough* Now if I can only warm up my feet!.

One side had to be peeled off and the other side had to be glued on
3/5

It was difficult for the silicone pads to absorb enough energy from the impact of tapping my index and middle fingers vigorously. There is much less damage if you knock your chair off its axis. It really does not please me to have to repeat myself To make products work as advertised, engineers must engineer them. There are many different experiences, so my experience might not be the same as everyone else's. The product is 2 stars in my opinion based on my experience. As I said, I used it to protect two month old surgery on my ankle that does not hurt that bad with normal pressure, but I know how much it will hurt if I hit a chair or if some knucklehead walks into it.
