Can these be worn with jazz/dance shoes? And would they be good support to prevent rolling ankles on turns and jumps?

I don't know about the jazz shoes, but when I tried them on and did some foot work my ankles felt really secure and i have bad ankles

For spinning, I look for a WELL VENTILATED, easy to walk in shoe with decent support in the sole. Comparatively speaking, this shoe should serve you quite well. It is also compatible with SPD pedals/clips.

These are more for lifting weights so i recommend not, but instead use a wrist band or tape. I breakdance but wrist supports aren't very helpful, its best to just stretch the wrists before doing them.

YES they will help. I only wear orthaheel shoes and have insert in all my other shoes (even my yard clogs) I am overweight and my ankles turn in and this helps keep them straight which then helps align my knees and hips I would buy them if I were you. (Also, you should go on the orthaheel website to see the video of how they work, very interesting)

Hi Josie regarding your question. Yes.if the shoe has heel support it's ok no matter if it is high or pump.you can't use it w/sandals it slip backwards(no heel support) Orthaheel is wonderful

I think that it would. My daughter uses this when she cheers. She tumbles and jumps without any problems. It gives her support and protects here ankle better than any other brace we have used.

My experience is as a current Tai chi and Kung fu student that these shoes work very well. If you are a judo or aikido student they would work fine - although I understand a lot of students go barefoot. THESE SHOES ARE LISTED AS EITHER KUNG FU OR TAI CHI! Hope I answered your question.

I can only wear these in more athletic shoes with more depth. I do have Vans and I haven't been able to wear them with that sneaker as it makes the sneaker too tight. I also can't wear them with Bobs for the same reason and both of these brands do NOT provide support which is why I tried the Spencos in them.

Yes, no problem. They have a few broad elastic loops that are fairly stretchy, so shouldn't be a problem. I did this a few times with a pair of Adidas Sambas so wrestling shoes ought to be a cinch.

Provided you wear the booties over your dance shoes, then yes, it would be very useful for practicing turns. It's been many years since I took dance lessons, but once I got the hang of it, I was doing pirouettes just for the fun of it!

I was able to, but i wear shoes quite loose. I dont think it would work with all shoes/sneaker types. Its very sturdy and rigid, toomuch so for my needs. Very well built.

If you are heading out on a smooth surface, you will be fine. I would not recommend rolling on grass or gravel. Karen, recovering from total ankle replacement -

They are not made to be worn with Shoes, they are to be worn with socks. My daughter always wears them with those large Socks that are padded. They are a Sock/Slipper type of footwear. Thicker so that her feet don't move around much. I very much recommend these for kids starting to learn to skate. They provide great support for your ankle and they are easily adjustable as their feet grow.

Not at all. When you put them on correctly they stay in place no matter how rigorous your workout is. Put it this way.. I wear them when playing basketball, which involves sprinting and jumping and bumping into other players. You will not be disappointed with these.

Of course is not as comfortable as not wearing nothing and it takes time to dress those before wearing your shoes however these are not too bulky. I use those in both ankles when I play soccer and can play good enough; I haven't used those with dress shoes but I believe should be used with soft or sports shoes. The only disappointment I had with those is that the adjustable belts where ripped since new so I had to take to the shoemaker to fix both.

They will probably slip off your wrists with active exercise. Ankles would probably work better.

I am not familiar with that problem. But they might, if you wore them upside down. I would try one or ask a PT you trust.
