Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Hi guys, Just wanted to tell you about an off-the-shelf AFO that I got today. Okay, hear me out. I thought the same thing... " Off the shelf? You've got to be kidding! " Well, it's only $30 per each so I figured it would be worth a try. I'm pleasantly surprised! It's very light-weight and you can use your custom fitted insoles with it. You don't even have to increase your shoe size! Of course, they probably won't last too long but for $30, who cares! My mother will NOT wear her custom-fit AFOs -- too bulky, hard to put on, don't look nice, yadda. I'll bet that she would wear these. They are very easy to put on. Mind you, I just got them today and haven't worn them much but they seem to help with my foot drop issues. You do need to wear good lace-up shoes with them. If you want to have a look, they are here and they're called " Swedish AFOs " : http://www.sammonspreston.com/Supply/Product.asp?Leaf_Id=55472101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
