Sports reviews of Swede-O Deluxe Padded Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint, Colors May Vary
Customer Review: ok...not good or great...go with something better quality instead
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
The velcro is wider than the strap it attaches to, snags and scratches every time I wear it. Typically comes loose throughout the night. Doesn't really fit tight enough to hold foot in place. Center strap is oddly placed doesn't really hold foot in. I do notice some mild relief after wearing it but I think a better fitting, more elevating splint would do a better job. Too bad at this price! Not worth the money.Customer Review: Flawed Design and too big
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
I generally wear size 10-10.5 so I purchased x-large size, which is for foot sizes 9.5-10.5. First off the splint was too big so my foot was flopping around. The problem though was not actually the large size, it is the placement of the middle strap. The middle strap should be placed at an angle so your foot doesn't just slide up. I had to use a separate bandage wrap to strap my foot in properly. The splint is nice and soft, but the inner plastic shell would put pressure on my ankle. I avoided purchasing a cheaper splint because I didn't want to waste any time and was desperate. What a mistake! I purchased a cheaper BIRD & CRONIN splint for about 2/5ths the cost and am quite satisfied. The only nice thing I have to say about the Swede-o splint is that the outside is covered in fabric as appose to just hard plastic your will find on other splints, which is nice because it doesn't scratch your other foot.
Customer Review: not comfortable, and doesn't put the foot into 90 degree angle

I bought the smallest size and yet it is very loose inside and that makes the foot go into the relaxed position anyway. So, I don't think it will work. I see no relief yet. Also, the valcro part is bigger then the strep below it so it rubs on the skin and hurts, I had to cut it and make it more narrow.Since I cut it, now I can't return it, so for me, I think it was a waste of money. I do not recommend it to anyone. Hard to sleep with it too.
