Abstract

An ankle brace includes a heel stirrup including a base and left and right upright portions. Left and right pivot legs are pivotably connected to the left and right uprights, respectively.
A cuff joins the left and right pivot legs. The left and right portions of the cuff preferably are pivotably connected to each other. The sides of the heel stirrup are tapered to provide maximum stability with minimum interference with the foot.
