My nephew;s didn't have any protection. They stopped below his knees by several inches and fit just above his ankles.

yeah they do have small ankle protection, i wouldn't say a lot, but a little

It does have an extra padding around the ankle area. It is not really big so care would have to be taken to position properly.

They have a padded elastic ankle protector with hard discs about large silver dollar size built in to protect the outer ankle joint.

I am not a sports medicine expert by any means, however, I find them perfect on uneven ground. They hold your ankle firmly in position. It works for my sprained ankle.

there are videos at Tekk Trainer website which may help....we bought ours for soccer but we also bought one for the high school to use for both sports as a donation from us.http://tekk.com/basketball-videos/

No. They are the color of a regular cloth bandage. Like an Ace bandage that you would wrap around a sprained ankle.

No but they have Velcro at the bottom around the ankle. These are my daughter's favorite pants. She likes them with or without chaps.

They do cover the ankle, but they are SO STIFF at the ankle bend that they didn't work for my little dog. On a big dog, the animal's leg (ankle) might be heavy enough to bend the rubber at the ankle joint. I even tried to fold them and band them in half for a week to see if i could create the bend, but the rubber sole if too thick. On a big dog this could be a very good durable boot. Hope that helps!

Yes! They are made of a soft stretchy material. I bought them for my team and they are allowed to play with them on.

Hello! These are for children. These did not work for us though. They are too bulky for my girls and the velcro straps are uncomfortable. Plus ours fell apart after wearing only a handful of times. We are going with ASICS Unisex Volleyball Slider Knee Pads - Junior Youth, Pair & Padded Arm Sleeves (1 Pair) Men, Women & Youth Compression Basketball Shooter Sleeve - Offers Best Elbow Warmers & Forearm Protection for Football, Running, Volleyball & Athletic Contact Sports. Granted these don't have the hard outer shell but at least my girls will use them & they'll be protected from falls! Happy Shopping:) Hello! These are for children. These did not work for us though.

My son hasn't complained about hitting his ankles or feet on them.Maybe they can be replaces with something more rounder?

Absolutely! My daughter kept rolling an ankle in volleyball but after getting Active ankles - no more sprained ankles! Four years of injury free play.

Yes! My kids wore them at the beach to protect their feet from the hot sand. We've also used them in the pool to protect feet from rough cement.

No they are not Velcro...double d ring....and the bag and opening are not very strechy so no, I doubt you could get a soccer ball into it. I found the prince lion heart stroller bag to be a hundred times better. I didn't like this bag after I started using it so I replaced it with the prince lion heart..very stretchy and tons of room.

For sports, I would purchase something more robust. I have bad ankles and I wanted something more than an Ace elastic sleeve.

Yes, They also work great for football cleats too. I haven't had any ankle issues. Not to bulky.

They have velcro wraps that wrap the ankle as tightly as one may desire. I like them a lot. Adjustable in 1/2 pound increments.

All soccer socks, including these, are meant to be worn over the shinguards. However, these are also thin.

I myself have never played soccer. This brace does have a lot of compression and definitely stabilizes my ankle through 8 to 10 hour work shifts on concrete and jumping up and down off of carts onto said concrete. It holds my ankle in place quite well and has actually given me a visual foot arch for the first time in my life. It couldn't hurt to try, I like it a lot better than the other brands with the heel openings, this one fits more like a sock but still provides adequate compression.
