I use this Walmart.com: ACE Knitted Ankle Support 207302, L: Medicine Cabinet Its not the typical ankle brace, but it works really well for me and its extremely cheap! ( I got it at my wal mart for about 3 dollars )
My friend uses this kind; Walmart.com: ACE Deluxe Ankle Stabilizer 209605, One Size Adjustable: Personal Care
And it works great as well. She says the only problem is it comes undone sometimes

I dunno how much you are willing to spend but I had a DonJoy ankle brace is ahhhhmazing! I broke my ankle beginning of 2010 season and this is the only thing that made sure it didn't move...some ankle braces i tried my ankle would still roll

here is the link
Velocity ES (Extra Support) | DJO Global

most phyio places I've been to do carry it but that's in canada but I believe its popular so you should be able to find it pretty easily

I use this ACE ankle brace Walgreens Ace Deluxe Laced Ankle Brace | Walgreens I buy it at Walgreens or a local drugstore. I've used it for a couple seasons now (I probably don't need it anymore, it's more a mental thing--plus it's easier to find me in action shots). But it's always worked great for me! It smells pretty, too.

My daughter used a brace similar to this with the laces
Core Products Lace-Up Ankle Support - Black Item 6300 on eBay!
but ours was prescribed by the orthopedist so I am not sure what brand it was or if it had more support than one you could buy in a regular store.

If you have insurance go to your orthopedic and get a "game day" brace, that is what my daughter uses, it really helps with her weak ankle.

Lace up would be best if your looking to support the top of your foot so just go to walmart or walgreens and get whatever lace up one you kind find!

I found this one on Amazon for $24 and on the ASO site it's $40. I read the Amazon reviews and they are overwhelmingly 5 star. I sprained my ankle pretty badly a few weeks ago and am afraid to resume any kind of exercise without support there. Thanks for the suggestion. And thank you to PullandPray23 for asking the question!

ASO's are good but if you've sprained or broken your ankle more than once I don't recommend them..don't stabilize enough
