I bought this shoe specifically because of my ankles. I have had numerous sprains to the point that I was no longer confident to jump for rebounds or go up against people in the middle. However, the stability and support I get from these shoes has given me back my confidence. They are comfortable and they look good too! |

I was skeptical at first, but after going through multiple shoes from every large market sneaker company I decided to give the Ektio Post-Ups a try. They look nice, felt solid, well constructed, and best of all... they worked! You can feel the support when you first put them on. The only thing I did was swap out the inner soles for extra comfort and to help the high arch in my foot. I've been prone to ankle tweaks, rolls, sprains, etc... since in middle school. I already have had a few instances where I can tell the shoe saved me. You can feel how the straps "lock-in" your ankle, but yet you still have all your natural movement when playing. The shoes do not limit me at all. Great idea, great shoe! |

This is my 2nd pair of Ektio's and I believe in the technology.
Historically, I've had a lot of ankle problems (even when wearing figure 8 strap braces on both ankles), but I haven't had any issues since I started wearing Ektio's about a year ago. I play BBall 3 times/week.
Performance-wise, they're great for me (I play indoors). The straps on my first pair have stretched and worn out with use, which is why I got a new pair. If you're prone to ankle sprains, I'd give them a try.
By the way, the Breakaway's look great! |
