The F3 Hero Paediatric AFO (Ankle Foot Orthosis) is a breakthrough in paediatric orthotic care—bringing lightweight, dynamic support with unmatched comfort and durability. Made from aerospace-grade carbon fibre, this orthosis is designed to make walking easier and more natural by storing and releasing energy with every step. Its innovative design avoids painful ankle contact, offers superior padding for comfort, and ensures a secure yet flexible fit.

The F3 Hero is more than just a paediatric foot drop brace—it provides dorsiflexion assistance, plantarflexion control, and helps encourage natural muscle use and better posture. Its spring-like effect supports smoother movement and greater stability, while the moisture-wicking padding keeps children comfortable throughout the day.

Backed by the industry’s best 2-year carbon fibre warranty, this device combines strength, innovation, and thoughtful design to ensure children get the mobility support they deserve. Available in multiple sizes, the F3 Hero adapts to individual needs while setting a new standard in paediatric orthotic care.

What is an AFO?

Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs) are medical devices designed to support and stabilise the ankle and foot. They are commonly prescribed for individuals with neurological or musculoskeletal conditions that affect gait, balance, or lower limb strength. AFOs help improve walking efficiency, reduce the risk of falls, and provide comfort by aligning the foot and ankle into a more natural position.
