Description
Gravity-Defying Innovation – The only prefabricated brace that offers up to 90% offloading of the foot and ankle
The Zero G 2.0 ankle foot orthosis (AFO) is a prefabricated, offloading brace that relieves plantar surface pressure from the foot. The Zero 2.0 G AFO incorporates a supple, but strong, adjustable, leather calf corset with Ratcheting Dial adjuster closures. This design provides a total-contact, hydrostatic lift of the inverted cone shape of the calf to offload the foot. The Zero G 2.0 brace’s patented design, with malleable metal uprights, provides a sturdy, stable substructure that transfers weight from the ground to the calf and not the foot and ankle, providing up to 90 percent non-weight bearing.
The Zero GAFO indicated for the following conditions:
- Charcot foot (neuropathic joint disease)
- Arthritis, including Gout/Gouty arthritis
- Osteochondritis Dissecans
- Spina Bifida
- Foot drop and/or ankle instability
- Fractures of the distal tibia, talus, or calcaneous
- Pre or post surgical intervention of the mid and hind foot
- Crushing injuries of the mid and hind foot
- Any orthopedic condition in which unweighing of the foot and ankle is required
Warranty: 90 days

ZERO G 2.0 OFFLOADING BOOT SIZING
How to size for the Lacer & Base
Measurements of the calf circumference and the foot length are taken to determine proper sizing. The Lacer and AFO Base sizes of the Zero G 2.0 AFO can be inter-changed for proper fit.
How to size for the Silicone Interface
Measure the circumference 15cm (6in) above mid-patella and choose the correct size.
