The Orthopedic Guys Low Top Non-Air Walker Ankle, Toe, Foot Fracture Boot (XS)

I previously used a post-operatiIt shoe which was ok. I then purchased an Orthopedic Pneumatic Air Walker. That was a mistake. The Pneumatic walker was extremely uncomfortable and caused more discomfort than my regular shoe. I returned the Pneumatic Walker Boot.I am a RN with severe orthopaedic anomalies , severe diabetic neuropathy, plantar fascitis,etc. Sometimes my regular shoes cause me discomfort, thus my left foot needs a rest from the regular shoe.This non-pneumatic walker is comfortable and relieves the pain caused by my regular shoe. I will only use it for pain relief of short durations(few days- 1week).I have finally got the right product.

I'm giving this 5 stars, but I don't know if my orthopedic doctor would... I ultimately ended up needing a much taller boot for my injury. I had a fracture on the 5th metatarsal of my left foot, and some very inflamed tendons around the area. This boot helped the bone itself heal, but I had to change into a knee-high boot because this one's ankle height did not give the tendons in my foot, ankle, and lower leg enough support and stability as they ultimately required. It should be noted I bought this product BEFORE seeing a physician and so my review is from my own personal experience and is in no way a substitute for seeing an actual doctor.The padding is all removable and technically washable. The curved sole makes it easy to walk in. the top velcro strap is adjustable in 360 degrees and so it is adjustable to your comfort. I did place one of the smaller pads it came with under the toe area since the foot pad is somewhat short.TLDR if you can, please see a doctor but otherwise it's a 30$ boot and it's a good one.

The length fits great but the base is too wide. The top velcro strap is too long and almost wraps completely all the way around so that only part of the gripping area is used. The 2 straps that go over the top of the foot are almost too short...they just reach the gripping area by 1/2 inch. My foot is narrrow-normal and fairly flat; if it were any taller the foot straps wouldn't reach at all. The foam "sock" is a wonderful fit and covers just to the end of my toes...very good for cold weather. If needed you could probably put an arch support between your sock foot and the foam sock for extra support. The rubber insole is not as giving as I hoped. The sole has good gripping and just the right rocking shape to make walking much easier than some other boots I've tried. Otherwise the construction seems well-made. I've worn it for less than 12 hours and I'm having no discomfort, so I'm pleased.

Our orthopedic doctor recommended this boot. I bought this for my daughter who fractured a knuckle in her big toe. She thought she was fine in her sneaker but as soon as she put on this boot she experienced significant pain relief. It was easy for her to walk in and not bulky. Very durable.

Excellent boot. I wore this for awhile with a broken toe. The doctor did not require it but my toe felt much better with this than with just a sturdy shoe. I think because it kept my toes from bending. I wore it for 9 days and my toe felt alot better after that and I could transition to a shoe. The velcro will slip a little sometimes but it doesn't come off and it doesn't get loose. If you make sure the velcro is making contact everywhere then it is usually okay.

I got this to relieve massive pain and help heal fractures in one foot and toes and ankle after tripping over unassembled microphone stand. I also have big bunion, plantar fasciitis, & spurs.Directions were shoved into the top of the boot and were for "Premium Ankle Air Walker", which I did not buy. There was no "pump" or anything as described in written directions, so I guess I did get the proper device. I got Medium; I wear 10WW-11wide woman's shoe. It fit ok with some room at tip for more foot. Sides are a bit snug-I guess that is why there are two cushioned pads that come with it. After walking for ten minutes, I had to remove it because too snug. After removing it,it still felt like I was walking in it, & was a bit dizzy. I guess you need to practice with it. It is difficult to walk with just one boot at a time, as it makes you unsteady on your feet. I think I could benefit from the "shoe" type device or just stay in bed with it.

I've only had this product for a few days but so far I like it. This boot is not big or bulky like the one I got from my doctor. The fit is snug. This detachable liner takes some getting used to but I got it to work.

I am going with a five star because the product itself is made well. This is what Was suggested for me to get for my foot issue by my podiatrist. I did wear it a while and it didnt do anything but annoy me. I needed a different kind of support to relieve my foot pain. So, that dosent mean this item is bad.. it just means my doctor has no clue! 😳
