      It is bulky to wear in boots, I use it more with low cut shoes and slippers now.

        Comments about Bauerfeind USA Bauerfeind AchilloTrain Achilles Tendon Support:

        Highly recomend. I have Achilles tendonitis. At the time I discovered this item, heal cups/wedges were not enough to allow the tendon to heal. This brace has compression in the right places to allow the tendon to rest and heal. I now have very little pain/inflammation/swelling. I use for work where I constently walk on concrete floors and when I excercise. Before purchasing this item, I could barely walk and now using the brace I have little irritation at all. I can now function in my everyday activities.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            Comments about Bauerfeind USA Bauerfeind AchilloTrain Achilles Tendon Support:

            Tore my achilles & other tendons/ligaments 6 yrs. ago. Haven't been able to walk pain-free since. Frequent swelling. Saw this brace recommended at [@]. It's been amazing! The key is the heel lift. Now I can even walk stairs without hurting. (It comes with a 2nd heel lift for your other foot to prevent leg elongation. Very nice.) The other help is the pads along the achilles - the compression keeps the swelling down and creates a massage effect that helps blood flow. It's soothing. Be careful of size though. If you're on the upper end of the size range, you might want the next bigger size. That's because of the only flaw: the design has a thick elastic band with two seams that crosses another thick seam that runs along the front of the brace. This creates a pressure point along the top of your foot where your ankle meets your leg. I had to order the next size up because of the discomfort - and I was at about 2/3" from the upper maximum. Measure carefully! Otherwise, this brace has been like a miracle. Highly recommend!

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
