Why Our Ankle Braces are Right for Your Athletic Program
High school coaches, college coaches, club coaches, athletic directors, and sports facility managers all know that ankle injuries are the most common setback in dynamic sports like basketball, volleyball, and soccer. A single severe sprain can sideline a star athlete for an entire season. Investing in proactive injury prevention is essential for keeping your program competitive. Our selection of athletic ankle braces is engineered specifically to provide the rigorous support required for intense training and game-day action. For athletic directors and athletic trainers, supplying these professional-grade braces ensures that players recovering from previous injuries have the medial and lateral stability they need to return to play safely. Every brace we offer is designed to fit comfortably inside a standard athletic shoe, providing extreme support without restricting the natural forward and backward mobility required for running and jumping.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between a hinged ankle brace and a lace-up brace?
Hinged ankle braces, like the Ultra Zoom, use a rigid outer shell and a pivot hinge to completely restrict side-to-side rolling while allowing full forward and backward mobility. Lace-up braces, like the Ultra 360, use straps to compress the entire joint, mimicking the secure, customized feel of an athletic tape job.
2. Can these ankle braces be worn on either the left or right foot?
Yes. Both the Ultra Zoom and the Ultra 360 ankle braces feature a universal, bilateral design, meaning a single brace can be comfortably worn on either the left or the right ankle.
3. Do these athletic braces fit easily inside standard basketball or volleyball shoes?
Absolutely. These braces are specifically engineered with a low-profile, slim footprint to fit comfortably inside modern athletic footwear without requiring athletes to size up their shoes.
4. Are these braces used for injury prevention or injury recovery?
They are highly effective for both. Many athletes wear them proactively to prevent initial sprains during high-risk sports, while athletic trainers frequently prescribe them to provide essential joint stability for athletes actively recovering from a recent sprain.
5. How do I determine the correct size brace for my athletes?
Ankle brace sizing is typically based on standard shoe sizes or ankle circumference measurements. We offer multiple sizes ranging from X-Small to Large/X-Large to ensure a secure, customized fit for athletes of all ages and builds.
6. Do you accept school purchase orders for sports medicine supplies?
Yes. Morley Athletic has worked directly with schools and universities for decades. We happily accept school purchase orders. Athletic directors and athletic trainers can easily submit a formal PO to streamline the procurement of their injury prevention equipment.
