Position Your Foot in the Liner

Begin by removing the liner from the boot shell. Slide your foot, wearing a thin sock, into the liner. Then, carefully place the liner back into the semi-rigid shell, ensuring the heel is seated properly.

Secure the Velcro Straps

Once your foot is in the boot, fasten all the Velcro straps from bottom to top. They should be snug but not overly tight. The straps provide initial stability before you adjust the aircells for a custom compression fit.

I was recovering from a severe ankle sprain and this boot was a lifesaver. The air bladder system made it easy to get a perfect, snug fit around my narrow foot. It provided excellent support and I was walking much easier within days.

After my foot surgery, my doctor recommended this exact model. It's comfortable enough to wear all day and the rocker sole really does help with walking naturally. The built-in pump is a great feature—you can't lose it.

The same boot at my doctor's office cost three times as much. I was happy to find it here with fast shipping. It arrived the next day and was easy to adjust right out of the box. It fit well and offered the moderate support I needed.

I've used this for a fractured toe and it made walking so much easier and less painful. The ventilation is good, and it feels lightweight compared to other boots I've tried. The inflation bulbs on the side are simple to use.
