Thuasne SpryStep® Flex – The sportiest solution for a foot drop!

The Thuasne SpryStep® Flex orthosis is the ideal support for active persons with a drop foot. The orthosis has all the benefits of a carbon / carbon ankle foot orthosis (lightweight, durable) without the drawbacks (rigid).

Walking with the SpryStep® Flex will now require less energy with a minimal risk of falling. The Thuasne SpryStep® Flex is generally experienced as very comfortable and versatile, but there are some requirements for the shoes, we prefer to use the SpryStep® Flex in combination with:

• Low walking shoes
• Sturdy sneakers or lace-up shoes
• Sneakers
