Syrebo Foot Drop Brace – Adjustable Dial-Buckle AFO for Walking

Adjustable mechanical support for adults with foot drop. The Syrebo foot drop brace uses a twist-lock dial and tension cables to provide adjustable upward support for the front of the foot during walking. It can be set up with the included forefoot wrap for indoor use or attached to a suitable lace-up shoe for outdoor walking.

This is a mechanical brace. It does not use functional electrical stimulation, batteries or a powered motor. Foot drop can have neurological or orthopedic causes, so ask a qualified healthcare professional whether this type of support is appropriate for you.

How this foot drop brace supports walking

• Adjustable lifting support: Turn the dial gradually to increase or decrease cable tension.
• Two attachment options: Use the forefoot wrap without shoes or attach the lower connector to a secure shoelace.
• Secure straps: A reverse Velcro closure and widened ankle cuff help keep the brace positioned.
• Soft contact material: The ankle cuff uses soft, breathable fabric with hook-and-loop fastening.

Size M and shoe compatibility

The shoe attachment requires a secure shoelace or similar anchor point. It will not fit every shoe style, and extra room may be needed around the ankle. Check the size guide and the space inside your footwear before ordering.

How to put on the brace

Without shoes

1. Fasten the widened cuff around the lower leg.
2. Secure the forefoot wrap across the instep.
3. Connect the cables and turn the dial slowly until the lift feels supportive but not restrictive.

With lace-up shoes

1. Put on a suitable lace-up shoe and fasten the ankle cuff.
2. Attach the lower connector to the first secure shoelace.
3. Turn the dial gradually and test the fit while standing in a safe, supported area.

Who may consider an AFO-style brace?

This brace is intended for adults who have difficulty lifting the front of the foot while walking and who have been advised that flexible external support may be suitable. Foot drop may occur after a stroke, nerve injury or other neurological or orthopedic conditions, but the correct support depends on the individual cause, strength, sensation, skin condition and gait.

Safety: Use a stable support or caregiver assistance when first fitting the brace. Do not overtighten the dial. Check the skin after use and stop if you notice pain, numbness, swelling, pressure marks or worsening balance. Seek professional fitting advice if you have reduced sensation, circulation problems, recent surgery, an open wound or significant ankle instability. This product does not diagnose, treat or cure the cause of foot drop.
