Thank you to Ektio for providing me with product, free of charge, for review. All opinions are my own.
There is a new shoe in town for the sporty basketball playing dads. Whether serious players or men who just enjoy a game of pick-up, Ektio has created a shoe that incorporates their new Ankle Support Technology. This shoe is designed by Barry Katz who is a doctor turned into inventor that went on a mission to create the best shoe possible for preventing ankle sprains and injuries. In the US alone, there are more than 25,000 ankle sprains that occur daily. Not only that, but ankle sprains account for more than 40 percent of sports injuries and those sprains reduce the ankle joint stability for the future which can lead to the tendency of more sprains.
My husband is not a serious player but he enjoys shooting hoops from time to time and we have also recently started teaching the kids some easy games and shots. He has found these shoes to be very supportive and they definitely do stand up to their claims. They are also comfortable and easy to maneuver in.
Technology Behind Ektio:
~Ektio strives to provide the maximum ankle support without limiting mobility. ~There are two straps built within the walls of the shoes. ~Anti-rollover bumpers that are geared to provide leverage and extra stability. ~Strap 1: This strap wraps completely around the wall of the shoes to support the lateral ligaments which are the ones that have a tendency to sprain. ~Strap 2: This strap lays directly over the ankle and locks the foot into the back of the shoe. This limits any foot slips within the shoe without limiting foot movement with the shoe.
Ektio Athletic Footwear has created a really top notch basketball shoe. Not only are they sharp to look at, the performance is good too. They are supportive in all the needed areas. If you know a Dad that likes to play some basketball, consider getting him a pair of Ektio Basketball Shoes for this Father’s Day.

I’m a city girl turned country by my awesome husband and we have three busy boys and two darling daughters. I love spending time with my family, reading Karen Kingsbury novels, and catching up with friends while our kiddos have play dates. I’m blessed beyond measure and can’t wait to see what God has in store.
