This Innovative Ankle Brace Is Purpose-Built for Pickleball

Pickleball is the perfect blend of competition and connection. A sport where you can challenge yourself to improve every time you hit the court while also making friends for life.

Play pickleball once and you'll love it. Play twice and you'll be hooked.

Finding people to play with is easy. But, like any sport, avoiding injury can be a challenge, especially as we age.

In fact, we recently polled our audience on where they most commonly experience pain after playing pickleball. Of the more than 5,000 respondents, 20% said it was their ankles.

If you’ve ever rolled an ankle mid-match or felt that familiar twinge after a long day on the court, you’re not alone. Many pickleball players – especially those with a history of ankle injuries – are looking for smarter, more effective ways to protect themselves without sacrificing performance.

The Ankle Brace Built for the Court

We've all laced up a crusty, plastic-feeling ankle brace or slipped on a restrictive neoprene version. While they're often better than nothing, they leave a lot to be desired.

The TayCo AthleticX Brace is built different. And it's trusted by serious athletes from the NFL to the NBA and everything in between.

Here's what sets it apart:

• Worn over any athletic shoe, so there's no need to change footwear; ideal for a fast fit when getting to the court 
• Stabilizes side-to-side and rotational ankle motion without restricting agility and explosiveness 
• Provides 2.4X the side-to-side ankle stability of inside-the-shoe braces 
• Reduces risk of re-injury for players with chronic ankle instability, sprains, or previous trauma 
• Clinically validated to reduce joint loading and preserve muscle activation during high-impact movement 

The TayCo AthleticX Brace is lightweight and durable. It's designed with athletes in mind, allowing them to stay on the court longer, recover more effectively, and prevent ankle injuries without compromising movement.

Designed for Athletes to Stay in the Game

Quick lateral movements, fast pivots, and constant starts and stops can make even the most experienced players vulnerable to sprains, strains, or worse. And ankles are a common sore spot.

This brace is for players who want to protect themselves without sacrificing on-court performance.

• Wearers can maintain their normal game shoes and movement patterns
• Particularly useful for players with prior sprains or ongoing joint weakness
• Rffective for all-day use, rec play, or tournament competition 

The TayCo AthleticX Brace has been validated in clinical and professional settings.

Now it's accessible for everyday athletes, like Stacey, an avid pickleball player:
