Move With Confidence Again
The PowerStep® Dynamic Ankle Support Sock (DASS) combines the stability of an ankle brace with the flexibility of a compression sock, helping you stay active, and get back to the activities you love without the bulk of traditional supports.
Why Choose DASS?
Engineered for Recovery, Built for Movement
Whether you’re recovering from a sprained ankle, dealing with chronic ankle instability, returning to sports, or looking for extra support during long days on your feet, the DASS is designed to help you move with confidence and stay active doing the things you love.
Its low-profile design fits comfortably inside most athletic and casual shoes, making it easy to wear during workouts, walking, work, travel, or daily activity.
Important Fit & Sizing Guidance
Designed for a Snug, Supportive Fit
The Dynamic Ankle Support Sock is intentionally designed with firm compression to provide stabilizing support. Because of this, it may feel tighter than a traditional sock or sleeve during your first few wears.
If you are between sizes, have wide feet, a high instep, swelling, or prefer an easier on/off experience, we strongly recommend sizing up for the best fit.
Fit Tips
Getting the most out of your Dynamic Ankle Support Sock starts with the right fit. Keep these tips in mind for the best comfort, support, and overall experience.
What to Expect
The secure, performance-focused fit helps provide targeted compression and ankle stabilization while allowing natural movement during activity and recovery.
Sizing Recommendations
For the best fit, refer to the measurement and shoe size chart before purchasing. If you are between sizes, have wide feet, a high instep, or experience ankle swelling, consider sizing up for easier application and improved comfort.
The DASS may feel snug during the first few wears, which is normal and expected as part of its supportive design.
Sizing Guide
Step 1:
Measure your foot circumference (from heel to instep):
Measure around your foot by wrapping a flexible measuring tape under your heel and over the highest point of your instep (top of your foot).
How to Wear the DASS

Reviews
Charcot foot supports
"I just received this ankle support sock and it works great. I was looking for something to give me better ankle/foot support when wearing slippers inside our home. This sock is easy to use and does a great job in combination with my slipper. I use a custom graphite brace when outside of the home as I need more support, but this works perfect for inside the home."
PowerStep Dynamic Ankle Zupport Sock
"I purchased 1 for my son and one for me. I love it! I am going to another to keep as a spare. The fit and support is awesome. I highly recommend this ankle support without reservation."
Power step Dynamic
"The support is great but the sock top is EXTREMELY tight. It causes me to need help remove the sock ."
"Simultaneously too long and too tight. If you have a wider foot, this isn't for you."
Excellent Ankle Support
"Allows appropriate movement with support & feedback to promote getting back to normal. Much more comfortable than others I have tried."
Very effective
"I wear this for cheer 10+ hours a day and haven’t had the same ligament pain I usually have because of a previous ankle sprain. It restricts just enough range of motion to prevent re-injury but gives me plenty of range of motion to stunt, tumble, and perform at 100%"
Very uncomfortable
"Bought this for my granddaughter to help support her ankle from an injury playing softball. I bought the size that fit her shoe size that your size guide recommended. It was extremely tight and uncomfortable to wear. It felt as if her blood was being cut off to her foot. Needless in saying that I will be returning this brace for a refund."
"Fits well. Supportive"
Unable to fit
"Sark was too tight to get on my foot needed an extra wide 4E"
Q&A
- How is your power step dynamic ankle support sock/compression sock for ankle pain and injuries better than any other ankle brace?
- Hi Janice! The PowerStep Dynamic Ankle Support Sock is designed to provide support through compression and stability without fully restricting movement, unlike many traditional ankle braces. Most ankle braces work by limiting motion to protect the joint, which can feel stiff and restrictive. The Dynamic Ankle Support Sock instead combines targeted compression and stabilizing support to help reduce swelling, improve comfort, and support natural movement - making it a great option for everyday wear, activity, and recovery.
