Question 1

What do I do if the Ultra Zoom doesn’t seem to fit in my shoe?

Accepted Answer

The Ultra Zoom is designed to fit inside athletic shoes. "Reset Your Shoelaces" - Loosen laces fully, insert your foot with the brace, then re-tighten from the toes up. This one-time setup ensures proper fit, comfort, and support.

Question 2

Why can the Ultra Zoom initially feel uncomfortable?

Accepted Answer

The Ultra Zoom requires a short break-in period. Wear it inside your shoes for 15–20 minutes at a time to allow it to form to your ankle. For best results, see the Custom Form Fit video on the Fitting Instructions Card.

Question 3

How long does it take for the Ultra Zoom to feel comfortable?

Accepted Answer

Most users notice improved comfort after initial use, whether during daily activity, a practice, or a game. As the brace warms and forms to your ankle, it becomes more natural and comfortable during movement.

Question 4

Why does the Ultra Zoom feel loose or unsupportive at first?

Accepted Answer

The Ultra Zoom is designed to work inside a properly laced athletic shoes - not sandals, tall boots, or slip-on style shoes. Once secured in your shoe, it locks into place to provide maximum stability and comfort during movement.

Question 5

The Ultra Zoom is an orthopedic ankle brace. What does that mean?

Accepted Answer

The Ultra Zoom provides a higher level of stability than typical ankle braces. The hinged design supports natural motion while protecting against harmful side-to-side movements. Like many orthopedic products, it requires a short break-in period.

Question 6

Can I wear the Ultra Zoom on either ankle?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It can be worn on either ankle initially. Once form-fitted, it becomes customized to that side. We recommend labeling it left or right after fitting. Follow the QR codes on the Fitting Instructions Card for other fitting tips.

Question 7

The hinge on my Ultra Zoom is squeaking. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

A slight squeak is normal if the hinge dries out. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the hinge and wipe off any excess to restore smooth, quiet movement.

Question 8

Do I need to wear socks with the Ultra Zoom?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We recommend wearing athletic socks for comfort and hygiene, just like with most ankle braces.
