Ideal For

Physical therapists, orthotists, and rehabilitation specialists who fit AFO braces for patients requiring dorsiflexion assist and medial-lateral ankle control during ambulation will find the Blue Jay semi-solid AFO a trimmable, reshapable option suitable for achieving a customized fit without a fully custom-fabricated device. Home health agencies and DME suppliers that stock AFO braces for patient fitting will find the availability of both left and right versions in three sizes practical for a broad range of patients across clinical and home health settings. Hospitals and rehabilitation centers that maintain a stock of pre-fabricated AFO braces for patient use will find the semi-solid construction and pre-dorsiflexed positioning a standard specification for this category. Clinicians who require a brace that can be modified chairside to accommodate individual patient anatomy and footwear will find the trimmable design a practical option.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an AFO do?
An ankle foot orthosis (AFO) holds the foot and ankle in a controlled position during ambulation. The pre-dorsiflexed design of this brace positions the foot to assist with foot clearance during the swing phase of walking. Consult your physician, physical therapist, or orthotist to determine whether an AFO is appropriate for your needs.

Can this AFO be trimmed or modified?
Yes. The semi-solid construction allows the brace to be trimmed and reshaped by a qualified healthcare professional — such as a physical therapist, orthotist, or physician — to achieve a more customized fit. Trimming should only be performed by a trained clinician to ensure the structural integrity and function of the brace are maintained.

How do I select the correct size and foot?
Select your size based on your shoe size using the size guide above, and select the foot (left or right) that corresponds to the side being fitted. If you are between sizes, consult your physician, physical therapist, or orthotist for guidance on which size is most appropriate.

What type of shoe should I wear with this AFO?
The AFO is designed to be worn inside a shoe with adequate depth and width to accommodate the brace. Extra-depth shoes or shoes with removable insoles are recommended. The shoe should have a firm heel counter. Consult your physical therapist or orthotist for specific footwear recommendations based on your foot size and brace fit.
