Description
BioSkin TriLok Ankle Brace | PTTD, Plantar Fasciitis & Sprain Relief
The BioSkin TriLok Ankle Brace is a best-selling, world-renowned support, trusted by over a million users globally to deliver medical-grade stability and targeted pain relief. If you are searching for an effective solution for an ankle sprain, suffering from a ligament injury, or managing the debilitating pain of plantar fasciitis and Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction (PTTD), the TriLok™ offers unrivalled support.
Critically, BioSkin’s TriLok is trusted to control both common ankle sprains and high ankle sprains, providing the extra support necessary for optimal healing and a faster return to activity. This advanced ankle brace is clinically proven to help stabilise the ankle joint, reduce pain and swelling associated with conditions like Ankle Tendonitis, and protect vulnerable ligaments (such as the ATFL and CFL) and tendons (like the peroneals). By protecting your foot against harmful movements and rolling, the TriLok™ restores your confidence, helping you return to high-performance training, running, football, or CrossFit. This low-profile support is a superior alternative to bulky traditional lace-up braces, offering the perfect balance of protection and a safe, natural range of motion for effective injury recovery and re-injury prevention. Use the TriLok™ for a wide range of conditions, including arthritis, chronic ankle instability, and general peroneal tendon pain.
Innovative Design & Component Benefits for Superior Support
The secret to the TriLok’s effectiveness lies in its unique, three-point strapping system, a design inspired by foot anatomy to deliver total ankle control. The foundation is a comfortable and compressive Undersleeve, which increases vital circulation to enhance the healing process while providing a slim base that fits into most shoes.
At the core of the system is the patented FootLok™ strap, which acts like an external ligament or a ‘suspension bridge’ to support weak tendons. This strap is crucial as it allows you to customise the support for your specific needs: when positioned medially, it expertly relieves arch and heel pain associated with PTTD and plantar fasciitis; when positioned laterally, it secures the ankle joint to prevent sprains. This adjustable ‘Two-in-One’ functionality delivers support as effective as many custom orthotics, but with far greater versatility. The third component is the Stirrup strap, which wraps around the joint to provide essential hindfoot stabilisation and prevent excessive rolling, securing both sides of the ankle without impeding safe movement. Made from lightweight, non-bulky, breathable, and hypoallergenic materials, the slim-fit TriLok™ ensures all-day comfort, making it the superior choice that fits easily into virtually all trainers and everyday footwear.

FAQ – BioSkin TriLok™ Ankle Brace
Q: Is the BioSkin TriLok effective for Plantar Fasciitis and PTTD?
- Yes, absolutely. The TriLok is one of the most effective braces for these conditions. Its patented FootLok™ strap can be applied medially to act like an external ligament, lifting and suspending the arch. This mechanism provides targeted relief for the plantar fascia and supports the weak arch associated with PTTD (Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction), reducing painful strain immediately.
Q: Can I use this brace for an acute Ankle Sprain or to prevent a re-injury?
- The TriLok is ideal for both. For an acute injury or to prevent re-injury, you apply the FootLok™ strap laterally. This secures the ankle joint against harmful movements (inversion/eversion) while still allowing a safe, natural range of motion. It provides the medical-grade stability needed for recovery and chronic ankle instability prevention.
Q: Is the TriLok a good alternative to custom orthotics or splints for foot pain?
- The TriLok’s adjustable support system offers many of the benefits of custom orthotics and bulky foot splints, but with superior versatility and comfort. The ability to precisely adjust the FootLok™ strap allows you to customize arch support and hindfoot stability to your specific needs, making it a powerful, non-invasive treatment option.
Q: Will the BioSkin TriLok fit inside my normal running shoes or trainers?
Yes. The TriLok features a slim-fit, low-profile design consisting of a thin undersleeve and straps, not bulky plastic or laces. It is specifically designed to be worn comfortably inside most everyday footwear, including trainers and football boots, without requiring you to size up your shoe.
Q: What material is the brace made from, and is it comfortable for all-day wear?
The TriLok is made from lightweight, hypoallergenic, and latex-free synthetic material (BioSkin’s Ultima fabric). This ensures all-day comfort, prevents skin irritation, and is highly breathable, reducing sweat build-up even during sports or long hours on your feet.
Q: Can I wear the TriLok while playing sports like football, netball, or running?
Yes, the TriLok is widely used by athletes. It provides the crucial stability to protect against high ankle sprains and ligament tears, but its design allows for the necessary flexibility and movement required for high-performance activities. It offers protection without rigidly restricting your mobility.
Q: Is the BioSkin TriLok specific to the left or right foot?
No, the TriLok is universal. The design and strapping system allow the brace to be applied to either the left or the right ankle, ensuring full flexibility and value.
Q: How do I find the correct size for the TriLok brace?
Sizing is based on your UK shoe size, which ensures the compressive undersleeve fits correctly. We provide a full sizing chart (usually ranging from XS to XXL) on the product page. If you fall between two sizes, we generally recommend sizing up for a wider foot or maximum comfort.

Fantastic little brace and superb service. Thanks Beagle
I’m quite impressed with this 3 part ankle brace. I’m using all 3 parts when partaking in sport, but just one part when out walking. Definitely a versatile and effective ankle support. The fact that it doesn’t just compress and hold stable, but actively provides a pulling pressure definitely helps my ankle instability.
Ordering and delivery process quick and easy. I’ve only been using the brace for PTTD for a week so yet to see if it helps with my recovery.
No pain now when wearing it
Have had plantar fasciitis for over a year and an inflamed posterior tibial tendon for 7 months. I’ve only been wearing this support for a week but am experiencing good support whilst wearing this ankle brace and walking is easier. Plus when I remove the support, walking is less painful too, so I’m hopeful there is some healing taking place.
I have been having serious problems with my ankle after an operation about six years ago ie a lot of pain and while I’m waiting to go back to hospital I needed some help with being able to walk any distance found this not cheap but able to go for a walk a short walk for now but hopefully can build up fitness over time, ankle sore but able to put up with that.
On initial observation, item feels as though it will give my ankle more support than other straps I have tried. A little fiddly to put on but gets easier with practice and following instructions. Not sure how some parts will last though.
Difficult to put on correctly esp older people
PTTD has been an issue since May with associated swelling and pain. The trilock has made a real difference and enabled the tendon to calm down somewhat. Thoroughly recommend.
