Size Measurements

To ensure a proper fit for the MalleoTrain ankle brace, follow these size measurement instructions:

Measurement Instructions:

  1. Measure Ankle Circumference:
    • Use a Flexible Tape Measure: Wrap a flexible tape measure around the narrowest part of your ankle, just above the bony protrusions (the malleoli).
    • Ensure a Snug Fit: The tape should be snug but not tight, allowing you to get an accurate measurement.
    • Record the Measurement: Note the circumference in centimeters or inches.
    •  
  2. Check the Sizing Chart:
    • Use the measurement from your ankle circumference to compare against the sizing chart provided below-

Key Features

  • Anatomical Design:
    • The MalleoTrain features a contoured design that fits snugly around the ankle, providing support while accommodating the natural shape and movement of the joint. This ensures a secure fit and effective stabilization.
  • Breathable Knit Fabric:
    • Made from a lightweight, breathable knit fabric, the brace helps to manage moisture and reduce heat buildup, enhancing comfort during extended wear. The fabric also has a soft texture that is gentle on the skin.
  • TrainActive® Knit:
    • The brace incorporates TrainActive® knit, a specialized material that offers both compression and elasticity. This design promotes better circulation, reduces swelling, and supports the ankle joint during movement.
  • Anatomical Pad:
    • It includes anatomically shaped pads that provide targeted compression and support to the ankle, particularly around the malleoli (the bony prominences on each side of the ankle). These pads help in reducing swelling and relieving pain.
  • Adjustable Closure System:
    • The MalleoTrain features an adjustable closure system that allows for a customizable fit. This ensures the brace can be securely fastened to provide the right level of support, without being too tight or restrictive.
  • Flexible Stabilization:
    • Unlike rigid braces, the MalleoTrain offers flexible stabilization that allows for natural ankle movement while still providing adequate support. This balance helps in maintaining mobility and functionality during the healing process.
  • Easy Application:
    • The brace is designed for ease of application and removal, allowing users to put it on and take it off without difficulty.

Care Instructions

keep your MalleoTrain ankle brace in good condition and ensure its effectiveness, follow these care instructions:

Cleaning Instructions:

  1. Hand Wash Only:
    • The MalleoTrain ankle brace should be hand-washed in lukewarm water (not exceeding 30°C or 86°F).
    • Avoid using a washing machine, as the agitation can damage the fabric and the brace’s structural integrity.
  2. Use Mild Detergent:
    • Use a mild soap or detergent that is gentle on fabrics. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh chemicals that can degrade the materials.
  3. Rinse Thoroughly:
    • After washing, rinse the brace thoroughly to remove all soap residue, as leftover detergent can cause skin irritation.

Drying Instructions:

  1. Air Dry:
    • Lay the brace flat on a clean towel to air dry. Avoid hanging it by the straps or any other part, as this can cause stretching or deformity.
    • Do not use a dryer, hair dryer, or place the brace in direct sunlight or near heat sources, as excessive heat can damage the materials.
  2. Do Not Wring Out:
    • Gently press out excess water with a towel. Do not wring or twist the brace, as this can damage its shape and functionality.

Maintenance Tips:

  1. Regular Cleaning:
    • Clean the brace regularly, especially if it becomes sweaty or dirty, to maintain hygiene and prevent odor buildup.
  2. Check for Wear:
    • Periodically inspect the brace for signs of wear or damage, such as fraying fabric or loose stitching. 
  3. Avoid Exposure to Harsh Environments:
    • Keep the brace away from harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures to prevent deterioration.

By following these care instructions, you can ensure that your MalleoTrain ankle brace remains effective and comfortable, supporting your ankle properly for the duration of its use.
