## Overview

The AliMed Swedish AFO is a men's left-foot orthotic brace designed to provide static dorsiflexion assistance and lateral stability. Crafted from injection-molded polyethylene, it features a thicker vertical section for rigidity and a thin, trim-to-fit footplate. Its low arch and open heel design ensure a streamlined fit inside most shoes. Lightweight and durable, it can be heat-molded for a custom fit and secured with a padded hook-and-loop strap. Ideal for managing foot drop with discreet, professional-grade support.

## Description

FREEDOM Swedish AFO is an injection-molded polyethylene splint that provides static dorsiflexion assistance and lateral stability for the entire foot-ankle area. Injection molding allows for thicker polyethylene on the vertical aspect for rigidity and a thinner footplate that may be trimmed with a pair of ordinary scissors. A heat gun may be used to further form the splint if desired. The low arch and open heel give this splint a streamlined profile that fits easily into any shoe. Padded hook-and-loop strap secures the AFO around the calf. Available in left or right, men's and women's styles. Trim to fit with scissors. Sizing: Men's fits up to Men's Size 12. Women's fits up to Women's size 9-1/2.

Review: ... a men's and a women's to see which fit best. I was referred to a professional about 12yrs ... - I purchased both a men's and a women's to see which fit best. I was referred to a professional about 12yrs ago to be fitted for a brace for foot drop. I paid almost $300. I had to pay 1/2 out of pocket. It was virtually the same brace. The only thing I see that is different is the set up of the strap. The other has a small rivet attaching the velcro outer strap and the toothy strip glued to the other side of the back part. there is also a cushioned pad glued to the inside of the upper back part. This is something I wish this brace had. If my sock falls beneath it the plastic sticks to my skin. I purchased this one for $33 in black because my original one of 12year had been broken when my young son tried to wear it. My husband riveted it back together. I didn't want to spend $300 out of pocket (braces no longer covered through my insurance company) I love that this is in black. I wear a uniform similar to a police uniform w/navy pants, black socks and black boots. I was so excited when I found this in black. Just the cushion strap inside the brace would be a huge improvement. I thought I would have to return the women's because the foot support appeared too small as I have a wide foot. I purchased the male left foot and cut it down. But the ankle part to too wide for my women's shoes. It fits into the men's boots I have but isn't as comfortable. The heal rubs because it is too big for my foot. My husband made some adjustments to the women's brace for me. He cut the toe down. (cut it a bit longer than foot) Mine slides forward a bit and is almost too short. I would cut it a bit, wear it a few days then cut down more if needed. Also the top part of the brace was too small for my calf. My husband used a blowtorch to heat the back a bit then strapped it to a cup to reform it. I would caution against this if not experienced with heating plastic. Over all I am very please with this $33 brace. Even if it doesn't last 12years like my white one it is affordable to replace every few years. Because it is black and inexpensive and almost the same as I have been wearing for 12 years I would recommend it. Throughout the years I have tried several of the types that pull the toe of the foot up using straps/strings and I keep going back to the bottom support. I rarely trip with this brace and I never fall. One additional thing I would like to point out. The strap when velcro is in place does slip down from the brace a bit but this isn't a problem for me because it still supports the foot from underneath. I just tighten it every few hours. But again $33 verses $300 I can live with a few inconveniences. Foot drop in and of itself is an inconvenience.
Review: Beware - Worst ever. Very flimsey. Company or person whoever it was didnt offer mentioning sizes. It did not fit. Dont buy because it is useless piece of cheap plastic

### ⭐ Beware

Worst ever. Very flimsey. Company or person whoever it was didnt offer mentioning sizes. It did not fit. Dont buy because it is useless piece of cheap plastic

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT AFO!
*by M***K on January 24, 2013*

I have bought three different AFOs from various dealers on Amazon and this one was absolutely the best. It is slightly flexible in the areas where you want it to be. It has an open heal which is great because it doesn't create uncomfortable pressure on the spot. It is slim enough to fit into some shoes and I can wear it in my Johnson Murphy dress shoes for work. It's light and gives you enough support to be able to walk. If your insurance doesn't cover a $900 custom AFO, then this is the next best thing.
