DJO Global Aircast Airselect Short Walking Boot

DJO Global Aircast Airselect Short Walking Boot

The Short walking boot offers a solution to a number of indications related to the forefoot, mid-foot and hind foot injuries, as well as some ankle injuries.

The main indications for the Short are:

Metatarsal fracture
Stress and stable fracture of the foot
Bunionectomy, hallux valgus
Soft tissue injury
Severe ankle sprain

The Short has a durable, semi-rigid shell that helps support the limb while providing protection. The pre-inflated front panel and two adjustable distal aircells, housed within the shell, provide compression and support. SoftStrike technology absorbs and dissipates shock, while the lightweight and lab-tested rocker sole combine to encourage a natural gait and a continuation of everyday activities.
