Lacrosse doesn’t go easy on ankles. With every sharp cut, dodge, and drive to the cage, players put serious strain on their joints, making ankle sprains one of the sport’s most common and frustrating injuries. That’s why in 2025, athletes and experts alike are searching for the best ankle brace for lacrosse. And we’ve got one that’s changing the game—the over-the-cleat TayCo AthleticX Brace.
Why Traditional Bracing Falls Short
Many lacrosse players turn to lace-up braces or athletic taping, but these options can restrict movement, wear out quickly, or require constant reapplication. Worse, they often don’t fit well inside cleats, forcing players to choose between support and comfort.
The TayCo AthleticX Brace Advantage
That’s where the TayCo AthleticX Brace stands out. It’s designed to be worn over your cleats, eliminating the need to cram stiff, uncomfortable braces into your shoes. You don’t have to sacrifice fit, feel, or performance. This over-the-cleat design delivers rigid, lateral support while letting you move naturally and stay game-ready.
It’s even been tested and proven to offer 2.4x greater stability than traditional in-shoe models and is trusted by 80+ NCAA teams and 23 NFL franchises for its performance-tested design.
Built for Recovery and Return-to-Play
For lacrosse players recovering from ankle injuries, the TayCo AthleticX Brace is ideal for early return-to-play practices, light contact drills, or when ready, even during games. It’s also a smart choice for players managing recurring sprains or seeking extra protection on turf or during intense tournament weekends.
Confidence on the Field Starts Here
Ultimately, the “best” ankle brace comes down to what gives you both physical and mental confidence. As college player MK Doherty shared, her brace not only protected her ankle, it helped her stop worrying about reinjury and focus fully on the game.
Whether you’re mid-recovery or just looking to protect your ankles from the grind of a long season, the TayCo AthleticX Brace is built to keep you playing hard, fast, and fearless.
