The Bauerfeind MalleoTrain S is a light, dynamic ankle brace designed for mild instability, ankle weakness, or prevention of re-injury during sport and daily activity. It offers the same high-quality compression and comfort as the original MalleoTrain, but adds a flexible figure-8 strap system that mimics taping — providing gentle stabilization without limiting mobility.
 
Unlike the MalleoTrain Plus, which uses firmer, non-elastic straps for stronger reinforcement, the MalleoTrain S features elastic, adjustable straps for freedom of movement and lighter control. This makes it ideal for ongoing use after recovery, early return to sport, or athletes looking for preventative ankle support.
 
Its breathable compression knit, anatomical shape, and low-profile design make it comfortable to wear inside shoes — keeping the ankle secure, supported, and ready for performance.
 
Key Features:
 
Elastic Figure-8 Stabilizing Strap: Wraps around the foot and ankle like athletic taping, providing controlled, flexible support.
Medical-Grade Compression Knit: Reduces swelling, enhances circulation, and supports joint stability.
Anatomical Design: Contoured for an optimal fit with secure, wrinkle-free comfort.
Breathable Microfiber Fabric: Moisture-wicking, lightweight, and gentle on skin.
Slip-On Design: Easy to apply and fits comfortably inside athletic or casual footwear.
Left/Right Specific Fit: Select side for correct strap orientation.
 
Recommended For:
 
Mild to moderate ankle instability
Early recovery after mild sprains or ligament strain
Preventative support during activity or sport
Chronic weakness or fatigue of the ankle joint
Everyday stabilization after recovery from injury
 
Choose the MalleoTrain S if you need light, dynamic support and full freedom of movement.
Choose the MalleoTrain Plus if you need stronger reinforcement during rehabilitation or to prevent re-injury after a more significant sprain.
