Why 60–70% of Night Splints End Up in a Closet
Night splints work — when patients actually wear them. The science is solid. The protocol is sound. But the splints themselves are built wrong.
Patients quit their boot splints because boot splints feel like sleeping in a ski boot. They sweat. They kick the partner in bed. They make a 3 a.m. bathroom trip a hazard.
Patients quit their cheap dorsal splints because the plastic edges dig into the top of the foot, the velcro slides off in the night, and the sizing is wrong on most of them.
So the splint ends up in a closet. The morning pain comes back. The patient ends up in a cortisone clinic, a podiatrist's office quoting a $600 orthotic, or a surgical consult.
Compliance is the cure.
Comfort is the mechanism that delivers it.
The Stilla is the first dorsal night splint engineered backwards from the only question that actually matters: Will the patient still be wearing it at 6 a.m.?
Three Simple Steps to Break the Cycle
No drugs. No injections. No surgery. Just the right device, worn the right way, every single night.
Slip it on at bedtime
Three straps, less than 30 seconds. The shell sits along the front of your foot and shin, holding your ankle at exactly 90 degrees.
Sleep through the night
No bulk, no kicking, no claustrophobia. Within minutes you forget you're wearing it. Your fascia heals at the correct length all night long.
Wake up — and walk normally
No more bracing for that first step. Over time, the Overnight Shortening Cycle breaks. The morning pain that defined your year fades.
ComfortHold™ 90° Sleep Architecture
Three components. One job. Keep your foot at 90° all night, on a foot that wants to keep wearing it.
Low-Profile Dorsal Shell
Holds your ankle at exactly 90° of dorsiflexion — the clinically validated angle for interrupting the Overnight Shortening Cycle — with about half the bulk of a traditional boot splint. Sleep on your side. Roll over without bruising. Your partner won't notice.
Sleep-Engineered Padded Liner
Medical-grade memory foam wrapped in soft moisture-wicking fabric. Zero exposed plastic touching your foot. Firm enough to hold the 90° angle without pressure points, soft enough that within minutes you forget it's there.
Quiet-Lock Retention System
Three industrial-grade straps at the only three points that matter — heel, mid-foot, shin. Whisper-quiet hook-and-loop. Anti-slip heel cradle that holds even on side sleepers. Engineered so your foot won't fall asleep, even pulled snug.

What Stilla Customers Are Saying
"I've had plantar fasciitis for fourteen months. I tried the boot splint twice and quit both times. I was bracing myself for this one to be the same. Three nights in I realized I'd slept the whole night without taking it off. I cried. My morning pain is half of what it was three weeks ago."
"My wife stopped sleeping next to me four months ago because of the boot splint kicking her. Got the Stilla. She slept in the bed with me on the first night and didn't wake up once. My foot is healing. My marriage is healing. I cannot recommend this enough."
"I don't usually leave reviews. I am leaving this one because I want other women my age to know there's something that actually works. I spent $1,400 at the Good Feet Store and got nothing. I spent $89 on this and I haven't limped to the bathroom in three weeks."
The 60-Night Pain-Free Promise
Pain-Free in 60 Nights — Or Your Money Back
Most night-splint companies offer return policies that quietly stop the moment you open the package. They know that if you actually try their splint, you'll send it back within a week — that's exactly what 60 to 70 percent of patients do. So they protect themselves with fine print.
We do the opposite. We want you to sleep in your Stilla every single night for 60 nights. Because we know that's how long it takes to break the Overnight Shortening Cycle and feel the difference for yourself.
If at any point in those 60 nights your morning pain hasn't measurably improved, email us. We'll refund every penny and pay return shipping. No questions, no hassles, no fine print.
There is zero risk in trying the Stilla tonight.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Stilla holds your foot at exactly 90 degrees of dorsiflexion — toes gently lifted toward your shin — while you sleep. This is the clinically validated angle for interrupting what we call the Overnight Shortening Cycle: your body's natural protective response that knits the inflamed plantar fascia back together at a shortened length while you sleep, which then tears apart with your first morning step.
By holding your foot at 90° all night, the fascia heals at the correct length instead of the shortened length. Your first morning step doesn't tear anything. The cycle breaks.
The Stilla isn't a cure. It's a mechanical interruption of the daily re-injury that's been keeping your plantar fasciitis from healing.
This is the question we built the entire product around. Most night splints fail because they're unbearable to sleep in — bulky, sweaty, sharp-edged, or so tight they cut off circulation.
The Stilla is engineered specifically for compliance. The medical-grade memory foam liner has zero exposed plastic. The shell is low-profile (about half the bulk of a traditional boot splint). The three-strap retention system is designed to hold without compressing the small nerves on top of the foot.
Most patients tell us they forget they're wearing it within a few minutes. If you don't, send it back within 60 nights and we'll refund every penny and pay return shipping.
The plantar fascia is poorly vascularized, which means it heals slowly no matter what intervention you use. That's biology, not a product limitation.
That said, our patients report a wide range. Some feel a noticeable reduction in morning pain within 8 to 14 days. Others take 6 to 8 weeks of consistent nightly use. A few of our most stubborn cases took 12 weeks before the cycle fully broke.
The variable that matters most is consistency. Wearing the splint every single night — including the bathroom-trip nights — is what makes the math work. That's why our guarantee is structured as 60 nights of use, not 60 days of ownership.
Yes. This is one of the most important design differences between the Stilla and traditional boot splints.
Boot splints essentially require you to fully un-strap before walking, which means by the time you make it back to bed, your foot has been in the shortened position long enough to undo part of the night's healing.
The Stilla's low-profile dorsal shell is designed to allow short, careful nighttime walks — to the bathroom, to check on a child, to grab water. The grip on the bottom of the shell prevents slipping on tile or wood floors, and the 90° hold continues the entire time.
For longer nighttime activity, we still recommend removing the splint. But for a 30-second bathroom trip, you don't have to.
This was a non-negotiable design constraint for us. Boot splints are infamous for kicking partners, bruising shins, and getting tangled in sheets. We had patients tell us their spouse stopped sleeping in the bed because of a boot splint.
The Stilla's profile is roughly half the bulk of a boot splint. It doesn't catch on sheets when you roll over. The hook-and-loop straps are quiet enough that adjusting them doesn't wake a sleeping partner. And the shell is shaped so that even side-sleepers don't bruise their other shin.
Multiple customer reviews specifically mention "my partner didn't notice it" or "we slept in the same bed for the first time in months." If yours does notice, the 60-night guarantee covers you.
The Stilla is sized by both shoe size and calf circumference, because no two feet are the same shape. Our sizing chart is below — measure once, order with confidence.
Quick reference:
- Small: Women's shoe 5–7, calf circumference 12–14"
- Medium: Women's 7.5–10 / Men's 7–9, calf 13–16"
- Large: Women's 10.5+ / Men's 9.5–12, calf 15–18"
- X-Large: Men's 12+, calf 17–20"
If your size is between two options, we recommend ordering the larger one. Free size exchanges within 30 days if you ordered wrong.
Yes. The Stilla qualifies as an FSA/HSA-eligible medical device. At checkout, simply enter your FSA or HSA card as the payment method — no additional documentation required for most plans.
If your administrator requests a Letter of Medical Necessity, email us at support@trystilla.com and we'll send one within 24 hours.
The 60-Night Pain-Free Promise: sleep in your Stilla for 60 nights, and if your morning pain hasn't measurably improved, email us, send the splint back, and we'll refund every penny — plus we pay the return shipping.
This is a real outcome promise, not a return-policy technicality. We'd rather refund a customer who didn't get results than have an unhappy buyer post a bad review. The plantar fasciitis market deserves a brand that puts its money where its mouth is.
To start a return, email support@trystilla.com with your order number. We'll send a prepaid return label within 24 hours.
