- Aluminum boot shell and upright system that, unlike plastic boots, can be reformed to fit virtually any leg or ankle shape

- Unique rocker design allows patients to closely simulate a near normal gait without abnormal loads on any joints
- Also available in Lo-Top and PTB (patella tendon bearing) versions (call for more information)
- Optional air ankle/heel pad allows for ability to adjust ankle pressure for increased comfort and provides pneumatic ankle support.
Indications
This device is indicated for immediate application following injury to or reconstruction of the achilles tendon.
Contraindications
