Ultra Light Adjustable Night Splint Backpack with Soft Washable Towel and Foot Wedge

Wearing a night splint really does cure plantar fasciitis, and this cheap one worked perfectly well. No splint is comfortable, but this at least doesn't have all those contraptions that you fuss over and which stop you moving in bed. Yes, it makes your leg get warm, but that's about all. Stick your leg out of the bed, that's easily solved. It does feel like there should be one more strap, because your foot will slip out of 90°, but in fact that doesn't matter. Even holding the foot loosely at much less than 90° still does the trick. I'm really glad I decided to try this cheap version before throwing money at the complicated suspension-bridge splints. I was skeptical, because my fasciitis was sooooo painful, I didn't believe anything was ever going to work. Every morning I had to crawl to the shower and it took 30 minutes for my foot to loosen up, it was that bad, I couldn't walk. After one night with this - well, to be honest, half a night, because I just couldn't sleep with it on - I got up to an almost pain-free foot. Seriously, it felt like a miracle. I know nobody's going to believe it because I wouldn't have myself, but for £15, just buy it and try it. Ignore the stuff about it being uncomfortable - of course it's uncomfortable, all night-splints are uncomfortable, they have to be to do their job. And buy a size bigger if you're worried about tightness (I didn't find it tight at all, it's fully adjustable Velcro). If it can make the difference it did to me - from cripple to pain-free in half a night - then a bit of discomfort doesn't matter.

Very cheap price and although feels sturdy, the inability to change the angle makes it very uncomfortable for me.

Luckily my condition is not that serious but I still notice a definite improvement in my foot in the morning if I wear this at night and I'm pretty much pain free in the morning. Very simple to use and well constructed although can be a little uncomfortable from time to time. In my view the minor discomfort is well worth the result. Good value product.

Very useful

This holds the foot at an uncomfortable 45 degree angle. Might be ok for an ankle injury rather than for a foot. It is also hugely long in the foot. The only reason I didn't send it back was because it was useful keeping the bedclothes off my foot during the day. Not comfortable to sleep with it.

usless, not fit for purpose, when you sleep, your toes are pushing down trying to get to thier natural resting position (pointed down), and so your heel lifts about an inch or two from the base, the middle strap digs into you, after an hour or two, it is so uncomfortable you have to take it off. I tried padding it out with numerous pillow slips etc, but in the end just gave up.When it is first worn, it feels really good, but it dosent take long for the badly positioned middle strap to start digging in, the middle strap also fails in its only job which should be to keep your heel firmly in place, it should be resisiting upward forces, but if fails to do so.

The boot was far too big for my foot leading to being very uncomfortable and tight.

Lightweight and adjustable, this product has made a big difference to keeping my dad's broken ankle stable and comfortable. Very good value, and has the bonus of being easy to wash.
