Using the same patented micro-hydraulic technology from The BetterGuard, the all-new Lite product delivers dynamic, seatbelt-like protection that reacts in real time when the ankle is at risk. Unlike The BetterGuard, the Lite uses an innovative, minimalist frame that eliminates the need for a compression sleeve, making it the thinnest, lightest ankle protection ever. Weighing an astonishing 60g, the BetterGuard Lite is 65 per cent lighter compared to a traditional ankle support, giving athletes a barely-there feel at a lower price point — making next-generation protection available to more players than ever before.

“The BetterGuard Lite represents a huge step forward in both innovation and accessibility,” said Tony Verutti, CEO of Betterguards. “We designed it specifically with youth athletes in mind — those developing their skills, confidence, and love for the game. During the scientific testing phase, we found that this product is more inclusive and wearable for athletes at all levels. It’s lightweight, easy to wear, and makes elite-level innovation more inclusive and wearable than ever before.”
