Fast Fit® Carbon Fiber Footplate WHAT is it? The Carbon Fiber Footplate provides mild intervention for Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW). The footplate is light in weight but very stiff, and limits toe walking because the toes cannot bend. This combination provides a low level of support that may help with compliance for patients with ITW, compared to the alternative of blocking excess plantarflexion with an AFO design. Sleek design fits under insole or orthosis. Rigid support helps prevent toe walking by blocking MP extension. Slight toe angle assists with toe off. WHO is it for? Patients with Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) who haven’t worn orthoses before or have had issues with compliance. The strength of the carbon fiber prevents toe walking by blocking MP extension, while the slight toe angle assists with toe off. Before Order the Carbon Fiber Footplate in the same length as the shoe’s insole (do not add room for growth). If in-between sizes, go down 0.25” in size.
