OrthoActive Swedish AFO Drop Foot Brace

🔷 Product Overview

The OrthoActive Swedish AFO Drop Foot Brace – 1600 is designed to provide static dorsiflexion assistance and lateral stability throughout the foot and ankle. Its lightweight, low-profile construction makes it a practical orthotic option for individuals requiring support for drop foot and other conditions that affect foot positioning during walking.

Made from injection-molded polyethylene, the brace uses varying material thicknesses to balance support and flexibility. The vertical section is thicker for rigidity, while the footplate is thinner so it can be conveniently trimmed to size with scissors.

A low arch and open-heel design create a streamlined profile that fits easily inside most appropriate footwear, while calf padding and a Velcro ankle strap provide additional comfort and security.

Available in Male and Female versions for the Left or Right side.

🔷 Dorsiflexion Assistance

The Swedish AFO provides static dorsiflexion assistance, helping support the foot in a more functional position.

It also provides lateral stability across the foot and ankle, making it suitable for individuals who require additional support due to drop foot or related mobility challenges.

────────────────────

🔷 Variable-Thickness Construction

The brace is manufactured from injection-molded polyethylene with different thicknesses throughout the orthosis.

The vertical portion is thicker to provide rigidity and support, while the footplate is thinner to make trimming and fitting easier.

This construction helps balance stability with a lightweight, wearable design.

────────────────────

🔷 Easy-to-Trim Footplate

The footplate can be quickly and efficiently trimmed to size using scissors.

Unlike orthoses that may require heating equipment for customization, the Swedish AFO can be adjusted without the need for a heat gun.

For best results, fitting and trimming should be performed according to the manufacturer's instructions or by an appropriate healthcare professional.

────────────────────

🔷 Low-Profile Shoe Fit

A low arch and open heel help create a streamlined profile designed to fit inside appropriate footwear.

This makes the brace easier to incorporate into an everyday mobility routine while still providing foot and ankle support.

────────────────────

🔷 Added Comfort & Security

Padding along the calf section provides additional cushioning where the brace contacts the lower leg.

A Velcro ankle strap secures the orthosis around the ankle to help maintain proper positioning during use.
