An orthopedic device as in a dorsal splint for treating plantar fasciitis
includes a substantially rigid splint member having an overmolded
flexible edge and living hinges, or substantially rigid component pieces
received in a flexible member, to provide improved and more comfortable
fitting to a user and reduced storage requirements. The substantially
rigid splint member is shaped and configured to engage the dorsal aspects
of a user's lower leg, ankle, and foot. Straps are provided to maintain
the dorsal splint in position.
