Allard AFOs

Allard AFOs are not just for foot drop; they are an excellent option for your patients with chronic plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, or any metatarsal stress fracture. By not locking up the ankle, Allard AFOs assist with better balance, thereby preventing falls. The slim design allows the AFO to fit in most standard shoes with a heel height difference.

ToeOFF® 2 ½ Addition models offer three attractive anterior shell surface options: camouflage, birch, and black.
