An ankle support utilizes a strap having a first end and a second end. The first end forms a loop adapted to go around a user's foot and the second end is adapted to go around the user, proximate the user's ankle. A loop member is operatively connected to the first end and the second end passes through the loop member, whereby pulling on the second end tightens both the first end and the second end. In other embodiments, the ankle support may utilize a body being operatively connected thereto. In other embodiments, the ankle support is operatively connected to a shoe.
