Featuring an inflatable aircell tested to withstand high-impact forces, semi-rigid shells for lateral control, and a low-profile design that fits inside most shoes, it offers customizable compression and easy rear-entry application for all-day comfort and effective tendon offloading. ## Description The Aircast AirLift PTTD Ankle Support Brace is designed for the treatment of Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction (PTTD), or for early signs and symptoms of the adult acquired flat foot. Depending on the severity of your condition, it can be used as part of a conservative treatment to stabilize and help prevent its degeneration. This ankle support brace is made of latex-free neoprene, and is designed for easy application and adjustment. The innovative rear entry design allows you to slip your foot into the back of the brace. Simply adjust the 2 Velcro straps to secure the brace which eliminates time consuming lacing. The Aircast AirLift PTTD accommodates variances in arch shapes and heights to lift the foot arch to a more natural foot position. The air cell has been tested with 2,000 lbs. of pressure to withstand the force from running, jumping and landing, and other high-impact activities. The inflation of the air cell (located under the foot) can be adjusted while worn with the included hand bulb air pump. Review: IT REALLY WORKS! - I have a ruptured posterior tibial tendon, tendinosis, bursitis from a severely twisted ankle. This aircast PTTD brace has been a godsend as without it I am unable to weight bear. My doctor did not want to put it in a regular cast as tend to get more scar tissue vs repair of tendon. This brace allows me to take it off to massage my ankle, and to do passive ROM to promote healing. I am having a custom brace made but in the interim, this aircast has allowed me to be up and about. It does fit in my athletic shoe as my shoe is a wide. Due to the severity of my injury I have to use 2 canes when up and about but without this brace I would be non weight bearing. I plan to continue to use it even when my custom brace is ready as if I need to I can wear this one at night and when able, plan to use it in the pool so I dont re injure the tendon as it starts to heal or may order a second one just for the pool. I would suggest to promptly rinse off, mild soap and water, pat dry and then air dry completely. So far, I have had no issues with loss of air. Also, I found that too much air made my tendon more tender as I am naturally flat footed and was originally over inflating. 2-3 "pumps" of air was all it took to give me relief. I am not sure my ruptured tendon will heal completely without surgery but this is sure worth a try! July, 2019 update. Did get my custom made brace ($1200) for which I could only wear a few weeks as it was not made right and worsened my torn tendon so much that I had to go on crutches. So big setback and money down the drain for me and insurance company, and I am back in the aircast pttd brace since March/April. It works so much better than the custom AFO brace. I think I am one of the lucky ones as the aircast is still holding air just fine. The material is starting to wear some around where top of the heel area slides into my shoes. I purchased a second aircast pttd brace recently just in case the air bladder does break some day. My use past few months is just walking with crutches partial weight bearing with pttd aircast in sneakers and hikers. Since I am not very active now may be why the brace has lasted so long? These tendons once ruptured are difficult to heal. As it heals and feels better it is important to follow doctor's orders and resist temptation to overuse or you will inflame tendon and back to square one again. Anticipating a year or so recovery. Aircast worth a try as surgery also has year recovery. I miss wearing regular shoes but wide athletic shoes or hikers work great with this brace. Review: ... several of these braces for PTTD and although not perfect, they have been helpful for my condition - I own several of these braces for PTTD and although not perfect, they have been helpful for my condition. I must say that I have rarely worn them in shoes. However when I did have occasion to do so, they fit easily into a pair of hiking boots that were a little wide for my foot; I also wore a sock underneath. I was unable(an advised not to by my doctor) to walk around without wearing shoes fitted with orthotics before I purchased these. I wear them to bed and around the house without shoes, I do not wear a sock underneath or on top of the brace; thus allowing my toes an opportunity to breath. Yes, the Velcro does catch on clothing, and sheets, or anything that Velcro is prone to stick to. But I have devised a simple solution by purchasing Velcro strips (fabric store) and placing the loop side onto the remaining exposed area on the original strap. This eliminates the need to where a sock over the brace and stops the Velcro form sticking to other items. Yes, I have one with a faulty air bladder,but it didn't happen until about 6-8 months of daily use. The material that the brace is made of is durable but like all braces, it will wear after several months of continuous use. I have not had one break or completely wear out yet. The brace provides excellent support, but like any ankle brace it can cause some chaffing. For me the positives totally outweigh any of the negatives and I will continue to use and recommended this brace!! ## Features - Customizable Arch Lift Support: Inflatable aircell raises the arch to offload the posterior tibial tendon and improve foot alignment. - Ankle Stability Control: Semi-rigid shells help limit lateral motion and support proper ankle and midfoot positioning. - Targeted Compression Fit: Medial cross-strap helps lift foot arch for ideal support and stability. - Low-Profile In-Shoe Design: Slim neoprene construction fits inside most shoes while providing additional arch compression. - Easy On & Adjust System: Rear-entry design with built-in inflation control allows fast application and mid-day adjustments. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00P3D4FNC | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #53,151 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #92 in Ankle Braces #3,675 in Sales & Deals | | Brand | AIRCAST | | Brand Name | AIRCAST | | Closure Type | Hook & Loop | | Color | Medium | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 847 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00888912043939 | | Item Dimensions | 11.5 x 2.5 x 4.75 inches | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Manufacturer | DONJOY | | Material | Neoprene | | Model Number | AC141AB04-M-L | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | AC141AB04-M-L | | Product Care Instructions | Air Pump | | Size | Medium (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Adjustable | | Specific Uses For Product | Posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction (PTTD, Stage I & early Stage II),Adult acquired flat foot | | Sport Type | Running | | Target Use Body Part | Ankle | | UPC | 888912043939 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Use for | Ankle | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** AIRCAST - **Size:** Medium (Pack of 1) - **Specific Uses For Product:** Posterior tibialis tendon dysfunction (PTTD, Stage I & early Stage II),Adult acquired flat foot - **Use for:** Ankle ## Images ![Airlift PTTD Ankle Support Brace, Left Foot, Medium - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61kw2AkGt4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Problem with lateral side of brace** A: What problems are you having with it? The only problem I have is minor, a little rubbing on lateral medial side of heel if I have it on all day, but you can always put a little moleskin or foam to cushion. **Q: I have this brace but it has buttons on the side to pump it up, not a little hand pump. Is that model still available? Pump buttons** A: As far as I know the only one available has the side pump buttons. I believe it is an updated version. Mine has the side buttons also. **Q: I am in a boot, can this replace that? And can you sleep with it one at night?** A: Good question, but I don’t want to give medical advice. A quick call to your doctor is highly recommended. What I can say, a boot is designed to stabilize the foot or ankle after a fracture or bad sprain. The PTTD brace will not provide the stabilization that your boot offers. Additionally, there is an air bladder in the brace that inflates slightly with walking pressure, helping your arch and relieving PTTD syndrome. **Q: Can I wear this product with tennis shoes?** A: Yes you can Kaleigh, you may have to adjust the laces or make the shoe more loose but yes you can wear with tennis shoes. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ IT REALLY WORKS! *by G***A on February 21, 2019* I have a ruptured posterior tibial tendon, tendinosis, bursitis from a severely twisted ankle.

I am an over-pronator and my feet collapse in when I walk or run, but I am a super active person running and cycling every day so I was devastated when I got PTIT. I found this brace and it sounded like it might help, as it was designed by a doctor especially for PTIT. when wearing this, I could walk pain free. I wore it around the house (I work from home) while I rested and allowed my PTIT to recover. It definitely helped a lot and was a huge relief not to be in pain with every step. I did try to wear it to go walking outside but it did not really fit well in a shoe. I wore it every day all day for a few weeks and did not have any of the problems some reviewers had with it but holding air. I did top up the inflation every few hours but it held quite well. I hope this helps someone else to recover at it's a great product. the pain If you want another tip, the ten seconds motion control insoles combined with a little arch support stick-on pad was my perfect solution once I was ready to start walking again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aircast Airlift PTTD Ankle Support Brace, Left Foot, Medium - Bodyprox Ankle Support Brace, Breathable Neoprene Sleeve, Adjustable Wrap!
