Product Details

Ottobock WalkOn Dorsiflexion Assist Orthosis Support

Designed to reduce the risk of stumbling and falling for individuals with permanent dorsiflexor weakness, the Ottobock WalkOn Dorsiflexion Assist Orthosis Support helps to lift the foot during the swing phase. This improves safety of the gait while walking, and with a lightweight and discreet design the orthosis is ideal for assisting you as you go about your day.

Key Features and Benefits of the WalkOn Dorsiflexion Assist Orthosis

  • Lightweight orthosis designed to lift the foot during the swing phase where permanent dorsiflexor weakness is present
  • Suitable for dorsiflexor weakness with slight to moderate spasticity
  • Designed for both indoor and outdoor use for users with no or only mild impairment of motor control in the knee joint
  • Also suitable for individuals with a slight instability in the ankle joint
  • May be used after a stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular atrophy, or peroneal paralysis
  • Improves the safety of the gait while reducing the risk of stumbling and falling
  • Prevents the tip of the foot from becoming caught as easily on small obstacles or uneven ground
  • Comprises carbon fibre prepreg materials with a carbon fibre spring at the back to extend the Achilles tendon to the calf
  • Outlast material reduces heat development and perspiration for improved comfort
  • WalkOn ankle foot orthosis provides support while walking for users with residual musculature
  • Improves the smoothness of walking at the point of toe-off while stabilising the ankle

Sizing Information

Please see the table below for information about recommended shoe sizes and the total height of the AFO. Then, select your required AFO from the drop-down menus at the top of the page.

Shoe Size Height (cm)
EU Size 36 - 39 (UK Size 3.5 - 5.5) 45cm (13.8")
EU Size 39 - 42 (UK Size 5.5 - 8) 36cm (14.2")
EU Size 42 - 45 (UK Size 8 - 10.5) 37cm (14.6")
EU Size 45 - 48 (UK Size 10.5 - 13) 39cm (15.4")

Indications of the WalkOn Ankle Foot Orthosis

The Ottobock WalkOn AFO is suitable for the following conditions and situations:

  • Dorsiflexor weakness with slight to moderate spasticity
  • Indoor and outdoor use by user with no or mild impairment of motor control in the knee joint or slight instability in the ankle joint
  • Suitable following a stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular atrophy, or peroneal paralysis

Safer and More Natural Walking

By supporting and lifting the foot during the swing phase, the WalkOn Orthosis improves gait safety while walking. There is also a reduced risk of the tip of the foot being caught on uneven ground or obstacles, in turn lowering the risk of a stumble or fall.

The WalkOn AFO also assists with moving and walking more naturally, as the special carbon fibre prepreg materials store energy when stepping down with the heel and then releasing it during the rollover movement of the foot. The WalkOn assists with putting a more natural load on the forefoot whether crouching down or walking up stairs, helping you carry on with your daily activities.

Discreet and Lightweight Orthosis

When wearing an AFO, the last thing you want is for it to be feel bulky or making you feel self-conscious. Thankfully, the WalkOn Orthosis is lightweight, slim, and discreet when worn under clothing. It even features a removable calf pad to make it more practical for you.

The support is also made of Outlast climate control material, which reduces heat development and perspiration. As the AFO can be worn in virtually any shoe with a reinforced heel, it's ideal for providing reliable support wherever you go.

Staying Active with the WalkOn Dorsiflection Support

You don't need to let a condition such as dorsiflexor weakness stop you from getting out and about, as this lightweight WalkOn orthosis is great for helping you to stay active. While extreme and abrupt movements should be avoided, while wearing the WalkOn you can walk around and stay active with greater comfort and ease. 

How to Wear the WalkOn AFO

The last thing you want when improving your gait is to have to contend with complicated straps and fiddly buckles. Preventing that potential problem, the WalkOn Orthosis can be applied with ease. Simply place the orthosis into the shoe, insert your foot, and then fasten the hook-and-loop closures to a comfortable tightness.

Washing the WalkOn Foot Support

Allowing you to ensure your WalkOn can be kept clean and hygienic, the orthosis support can be wiped regularly with water and a mild cleaning agent. Washing the pad at least twice a week with a machine wash at 40°C will help to further improve hygiene.

Insole Sizing Guide

Our Guide to Finding the Perfect Size and Fit

Using Your Shoe Size

For most of our insoles, the easiest way to find the best size for you is to go off of your current shoe size. The majority of our insoles are available in a range of sizes and you can simply select the size that best fits your existing shoes.

Please be aware that, as with shoes, there can be slight variations in the size of insoles. For example a size 8 of one brand might not be exactly the same size and width as the size 8 of another. To help account for these discrepancies, a number of our insoles include dimensions to help you ensure you're getting the right size.

Measuring Your Current Insoles

While using your shoe size to find your best size is a good guide, it is not always foolproof. If you want to guarantee that your insole fit your shoes as closely as possible, we recommend measuring your existing insole and using this as a guide to your size.

To do this, please follow the steps outlined below:

  1. Remove the existing insole from the shoes you wish to use your new insoles with (please note that not all insoles are removable)
  2. Measure the insoles at their longest and widest points (see the below diagram for an idea of where this will be
  3. Match the measurements to the dimensions of the insoles listed, and choose the size that best fits your results

How to measure your insoles

Where Can I Find the Dimensions?

The dimensions for insoles can be found on the "Product Details" tab (please see below) and are usually found in the sizing section of the listing, in a table. Please be aware that not all products currently have the dimensions listed.

Product Details Example
The dimensions of insoles can usually be found on the "Product Details" tab

What If There Are No Dimensions Listed?

If you do not see the dimensions listed on the Product Details tab, please fill in the form below and we will work to get the relevant information as quickly as possible. We will email you once we have the information that you have requested.

Trimming Your Insoles to Fit

To get the ultimate level of fit from your insoles, you can trim them to make a small adjustment. To trim your insoles, simply follow the steps below:

  1. Remove your existing insoles from your shoes
  2. Line up your existing and new insoles at the heel
  3. Trace the outline of the insoles against the new pair at the toe end (see the image below for an example)
  4. Carefully cut along the traced line
  5. Your insoles should now fit your shoes better

Trace the outline of your existing insoles
Carefully trace the outline of your insole

Please note that not all insoles are suitable for trimming. Most insoles are unsuitable for return once they have been trimmed to fit; we recommend bearing this in mind prior to trimming.

If you would like a more detailed guide to trimming your insoles, please read our full guide on How to Trim Your Insoles.
