Ankle Braces and High Top Sneakers
Just a question regarding Basketball Shoes and Ankle Braces. I've always used high tops sneakers to avoid ankle sprains. During practice I was wearing some low Kobe sneakers and rolled the foot and sprained my ankle. I bought some decent ankle braces which have been good and I haven’t had any issues. My Question is, does wearing ankle braces and high top sneakers add any extra support at all or should I just go the low top sneakers with the ankle braces? Will low tops with ankle braces give me the proper support? Wearing ankle braces with high tops makes them bulky but I want to protect my ankles as much as possible.
Thanks so much for your help.
