Does this brace have hard plastic on the outer sides?

No it does not. The sleeve itself has no "give" to it and does not stretch, so it supports the ankle and holds it pretty tight. You don't get much movement of the ankle when the brace is all tightened up. No need for hard plastic.

No, that would make if very uncomfortable. The way it is designed gives so much support. I sprained my ankle really bad and was able to wear this brace and still play soccer. I totally recommend it.

It does not. The material is cordura-like (similar to a back pack) with similarly design straps that wrap around both sides. This is an incredibly good brace per the experience of my son and I for basketball, soccer, baseball, and general outdoor activities.

The handle is rubberized and offers great grip. Not sure if there is plastic under it though.

You don't need to step into this product. There is a simple velcro fastener. The additional straps are to tighten the brace. I have found the brace to be comfortable, but a little warm after a few hours. However, it is cooler than other braces I have worn.

No it dosen't have either. It's really just a soft outer skin with a hard plastic insert.

I can't tell if mine has a glass or a hard plastic face but, either way, it is built pretty sturdy. I dropped mine the first day and it is hasn't broken and seems to agree with another thermometer I stuck in there. I'd buy this one again.

The brace itself is hard plastic. The black flexible strap seems to be constructed of some sort of very strong synthetic rubber like material. I use a Velcro strap around it to help keep things secure. I find this system works very well for me and find it quite comfortable.

No, I think it is some sort of hard plastic. I've been using it for many months without any ill effects.

there are two compartments on each side of the brace...one has air and the other has a gel type things. It's a one size first all type of thing with adjustments straps

No, there's no hard plastic support to protect from pitches, but I've found it very helpful in relieving wrist fatigue while playing baseball and bowling.

Yes it has a hard plastic inside and a nylon cover outside. I gave it as a gift and they were very pleased with the quality of this item. I will be ordering one for myself.

Yes, three metal braces lay across the base. Very sturdy and even improved the feel of our mattress.

No, 3 hard plastic nibbs keep it from touching the majority of the brace.I have not noticed it wearing but over time three small spots might develop.No worse than buckel rash and it lets me play my basses (I bought 4 do far).

No, it only comes with the back brace shown in the pictures. You will need to order adhesive pads separately.

Yes it does. We used our regularly for three month. Before the plastic started falling apart. I traveled with it on a flat trailer and I would have to guess the road was just to rough for it. I still recommend it just be gentle with it.
