Composite Footplates for Stability and Support

Developed with nearly three decades of expertise in the field of composite AFOs, Allard's Composite Footplates support and alleviate pain for patients suffering from a range of conditions, such as stress factures, injuries or arthritis in the forefoot and/or midfoot area.

Carbon Footplate &
Carbon Footplate Rigid

Carbon Footplate and Carbon Footplate Rigid supports the MTP (metatarsophalangeal) joints and the forefoot by restricting the range of motion, evenly distributing pressure in the forefoot, and aiding in the smooth transition of weight during ambulation.

The carbon footplates can also be used to gradually restore mobility following a period of immobilization, typically with a post-operative shoe or walker. They have the potential to enhance balance for individuals who have undergone toe amputation.

  • Restricts the range of motion to alleviate discomfort.
  • Perfectly align with the shape of the shoe for an enhanced and comfortable fit.
  • Designed to accommodate shoes with a 5-10mm
    heel pitch.

  • For optimal comfort and function, the carbon footplates should be covered with an insert.
