DESCRIPTION

Don't let it stop you! With our brand new Achilles tendon support Sports Achilles Support, you get reliable protection for your ankle and Achilles tendon - and simply stay in the race longer.

The Achilles Support aids you during longer and more intensive sports sessions, counteracts slight discomfort in the Achilles tendon with the Achilles pad and promotes a safe running feeling when in motion.

ACHILLES TENDON SUPPORT WITH FUNCTIONAL PAD AND COMFORT ZONES

The Achilles pad encloses the Achilles tendon and exerts an alternating pressure massage with the knitted fabric. Small nubs and two pressure points on the lower wing of the pad apply targeted stimuli to the surrounding tendon area. This has an activating effect on the muscles and improves the metabolism locally so that swellings or oedemas are reduced. Thanks to perforations, the pad is light and breathable.

Different knitted zones promote proprioception with slight compression for improved sensorimotor feedback: the sports support relieves the ligament and tendon apparatus, ensures rapid control of the stabilising muscles in the foot and improves joint coordination.

Comfort zones are incorporated for optimal wearing comfort. The material does not constrict thanks to the pressure-free edge. The closure seam on the front is offset to the side so that there is no friction under the foot or on the instep.

Material composition: 48,5% Silicone, 34,8% Polyamide, 11,3% Elastane, 3% Cotton, 1,6% Polyurethane, 0,8% Polyester
