BLUEROCKER® 2½
The Foot Drop Orthosis BlueROCKER® 2 ½ has the same dynamic functions and stability as a BlueROCKER® 2.0 with exception that the 2 ½ has a lower heel height, 7 mm, to adapt to modern shoes. The toe lift is also slightly lower which results in more space in the toe box. Since the start in 1997 the Allard AFO has been the market leader with its unique functions and dynamic properties.
BlueROCKER® 2 ½ has all MikroFIX pre-applied to simply fitment of the padding. The strap solution is the same as on 2.0, made from a durable and strong material. The straps can be applied for either inside or outside closure on the orthosis. The foot plate on BlueROCKER® 2 ½ gives more space in the toebox. It is always important to adapt any Allard AFO to the heel height of the shoe. Read more about this in the Allard AFO Professional Instructions.
