Customers praised this ankle brace for providing immediate pain relief and effective support for Achilles tendonitis and injuries. Many noted it "feels like it's massaging my Achilles as I walk" and enabled return to sports. Concerns included unclear instructions, sizing running large, and some experiencing reduced elasticity after 2 weeks of wear.
The relief was immediate. I have haglunds deformity and my right heel has flared up from probably too much tennis. Nothing has brought any relief until now! Thank you Bauerfeind

I developed Achilles tendonitis after taking the antibiotic, Ciprofloxacin.
I could only just walk around the house.
This brace stops footwear digging into the tendon and has helped me recover.
I wear it for sport and any outdoors walking.
It won’t fit in my ski boot but I sail, mountain bike, and walk in town and countryside with it.
Wearing it and Hoka Clifton 10 shoes I am now walking 6 miles a day.
Thank you for this.

A well designed Achilles bandage
Thank you, Terry - a lot of thought goes into the AchilloTrain's design, so it's great to hear it shows. Thanks for ordering with us. The Bauerfeind Team
Customer services were very helpful with the exchange and product replacement. The product itself seems very well made and seems to be helping with an old ankle injury which has started causing problems again. Great company. Recommended
Love this product and the sports one. I would say that this one is a bit firmer in support with the optional gel heal inserts for your shoe. Walking 4 huskies this has been a life saver for my achilles tendinitis. Only thing is after wearing for 8+ hours it will leave an indentation in the skin therefore recommend wearing it for when you need too to avoid marks on the lower leg.
I have been wearing the achillotrain ankle brace for 3 weeks now, and have noticed a vast improvement in my stability and the pain has subsided. I have a very physical job, involving heavy lifting etc l, and the ankle braces have definitely helped in my day to work. I had to remove one of my insoles to achieve the correct posture, as my hips were starting to ache, but after this no problems. They are well made and, with the addition of the application aid, which makes for easy putting on I would highly recommend.
Hi Michael, thank you for sharing your positive experience with the AchilloTrain Ankle Brace! We're delighted to hear it’s helping with your stability and pain relief, especially given your active job. Great to know the application aid makes it easier to use too.
Kind regards, The Bauerfeind Team
I’m still watching video of how to put it on. Some videos say the gel pad goes under the heel but I think it’s supposed to come up the Achilles tendon.
great product that certainly helped heal my strained achilles

So good I bought a second one!
This is one of the best products I’ve ever bought. Simply sensational. Feels like it’s massaging my Achilles as I walk. Worth every penny
Thank you for the amazing feedback! We’re thrilled to hear how much you’re enjoying the support.

My first one disintegrated within one year.
It was, otherwise, highly effective.
I wrote to you and sent photos but received no reply?!
Let’s hope this one lasts longer.

Support is good. Fit is slightly loose having measured my foot prior to ordering. I’d suggest sizing down one size.

Product is great. the only reason for not giving 5 stars is there is no explanation on the website of the specific method of putting the sock on and I had great difficulties until I noticed the additional item in the package which I had assumed was part of the packing.
The brace is very supportive. The only thing it's started is it's loosing a bit of elasticity at calf end of the brace. I've only been wearing it for 2 weeks.
I have had achilles tendonitis on both legs for about 7 years and it recently got much worse. My left achilles eventually ruptured while playing football in April 2025. I had to stop exercising completely for a few months. I was desperate to get back to playing football so I bought 2 of these for both achilles. I was sceptical at first but after a little research I bought them and I can say they are absolutely amazing, I wore them every day for a few weeks just for walking and then gradually I noticed the pain was dying down until I didn't feel pain anymore. I started playing football 3 weeks ago and feel I am getting stronger, I don't have the same pain and stiffness the following day or two after that I used to have and I feel confident enough to sprint again now. I am still taking it easy but the AchilloTrain is definitely speeding up the healing process.
I am very impressed with this brace. Walking has immediately become more comfortable.
Excellent service and product
This fantastic product relieved me from a year and half of achilles tendon pain and gave me the confidence to resume my MMA training again modtly running, kicks and all heavy cardios. I loved this product sp much that i bought them in 3 different sizes. Thank you BauerFeind for creating such a phenomenal product
Excellent strapping..
Such an excellent product, I can move around straight away without pain.
Thank you Bauerfeind.
Thank you so much for this excellent product. I was playing tennis with so much pain until my physio recommended I purchase this brace. I want everyone to know that i could play immediately with no pain and now after six months I can play without the brace; it is an amazing product.
