AFO Leaf Spring is a pre-fabricated polypropylene ankle-foot orthosis designed to support flaccid drop foot. It provides a semirigid section for toe clearance and support, yet has a thin, flexible foot plate for easy trimming. The absence of a heel section makes the Leaf Spring more comfortable to wear and provides a better fit in shoes.
