Description

New boots rubbing your child's heel raw? The stiff backs of soccer boots and the collars of high-top trainers can cause friction around the heel and Achilles tendon. Finding something that stays in place can be a challenge.

Meet the StrideSleeve Ankle & Heel Pain Sleeve — a thin, stretchy sleeve with a built-in gel pad that covers the back of the heel and Achilles tendon, extending underneath the heel towards the arch.

  • The boot rubs the sleeve, not the heel. Creates a cushioning layer between the heel and footwear.
  • Built-in gel pad. Helps cushion the heel and spread pressure across the covered area.
  • Stretch fabric. Designed to fit around the heel without relying on tape.
  • Made for active days. Suitable for soccer boots, basketball trainers and running shoes.
  • Low-profile design. A thin sleeve that fits beneath suitable footwear.
  • Reusable. Hand wash and air dry for repeated use.
  • Pair with StrideSleeve toe protection. Add coverage from the toe area through to the heel.

If heel pain continues after a week or two of rest, consult a doctor or physiotherapist.

Ankle & Heel Sleeve

What it means for your child on match day:

The boot rubs the sleeve, not the heel

Stiff boot heels and high-top collars rub the back of the heel and Achilles. The gel pad takes that friction and cushions the bony bump growing heels often have.

Stays put without tape

Thin stretch fabric runs from the Achilles, under the heel to the arch, holding the gel in place through sprints, jumps and cuts. Wear it under a low-cut sock.

Toe-to-heel protection

Pair it with the StrideSleeve to cover the whole foot. Reusable — hand wash in warm water with mild soap and air dry, ready for the next session.
