FUnCTiOn
The Foot-Up is a lightweight, dynamic aid for drop foot or related disorders that
require dorsal flexion support. The Foot-Up basic version consists of two
separate parts: an ergonomic ankle strap and a barely visible inlay. The easy-to-
fit ankle strap is made from a hypo-allergenic material with outward vaporisation.
This reduces the chance of skin reaction. The flexible inlay is placed between the
tongue of the shoe and the laces. The position of the inlay determines the degree
of support. The two separate components can be connected to each other with
the strong easylock elastic strap. This structural combination enables the
forefoot to be raised if you need dorsal flexion support, especially in the swinging
leg phase, thus approximating to a physiological gait pattern.
ACCEssORiEs (sold separatly)
Two accessories are available for the basic version of the Foot-Up:
1) A universal shoeless bandage. The bandage makes the Foot-Up suitable for
use when not wearing shoes.
2) A separate inlay. This makes it unnecessary to change inlays when using
different lace-up shoes.
