An ankle protector is disclosed comprising (i) a pair of supports each including a hard exterior shell and a conformable interior replaceable pad adapted to be fitted, pad facing the leg, onto the lower leg, confrontingly opposing medial and lateral side portions of the leg above and below the ankle malleoli, the support not extending inferiorly sufficiently to engage a surface on which the foot rests, the pad having a higher surface friction face confronting the leg, the support members being circumferentially bound to the leg above the ankle malleoli by (ii) inelastic positive fasteners acting in concert with the high friction surface of the pad to provide, when fitted, a secure mount on the limb, and (iii) an inelastic strap interconnecting said supports, when fitted, tensively, under the sole of the posterior part of the foot.
