Plantar Fasciitis Night Splints, Adjustable Night Splints and Ankle Braces for Men and Women(Blue)

Bought this to sleep in to help cure my plantar fasciitis.Likes: comfortable enough to sleep in, easy to use once you've adjusted it, soft material, well padded.Dislikes: comes flat-packed so needs to be bent into shape first (there is a metal bar inside). Then there are 6 velcro straps which will stick to everything to start with. Not a huge problem but fiddly.Once the bar is shaped (roughly 90*) put the splint on and adjust and fasten the foot-straps. These can now be left fastened. Only fasten/unfasten the 2 ankle straps when using the splint, that way you don't have to fight with all the velcro straps.This has made a huge difference to my Plantar Fasciitis, no more pain in the morning or after resting.

I found the item quite helpful and valuable for what is intended for. However I am quite dissapointed that the picture, like the one aboved, shows a pair (two components) while I only received one. It should be very explicit said that the price is for one component. Nobody buy one sock or one shoe.

Does the job

I bought this to help with foot drop. Have to say I was quite disappointed. Fitting was poor and took a while to get it feeling right.

The insert cushion is too thick and hot

I can walk on a morning After wearing this. Great product

Not possible to assemble as Velcro sticks to everything. Different parts oof the product not clear in accompanying leaflet. Never used. Useless product.

My plantar faciitis has decided NOT to flare up since getting this, so I haven't been able to test how effective it is at relieving the pain and discomfort.But have I not had a flare up because I've been wearing this for the odd hour here and there just to check how it feels while on? There's no real way of telling.Either way, I don't feel I can really say whether or not this is effective in helping.The splint feels very sturdy, and the fabric is thick. The edges are well finished / trimmed, and all the stitching looks like it's going nowhere fast (won't unravel).As to ease of use / comfort....On unpacking it I was confused by the 'padded strange shaped insole piece', of which there was no mention in the instruction leaflet. It was only after looking at the pictures on this listing that I realised it's meant to go against the front of the leg and under the actual splint !!It's easy enough to put on, but I do have to adjust the velcro straps several times until I feel it's on properly. Once on it feels slightly strange because I can't flex my foot as much as normal, but it's not uncomfortable whilst moving around the house. I haven't tried sleeping it, as I haven't wanted to risk causing a flare up by doing so. But I'm normally a side sleeper, and as such I don't see it giving me any problems.
