Aircast
Size: X-Small
The Elite is engineered to provide protection, comfort, and oedema control.
The Elite has a durable, semi-rigid shell that helps support the limb while providing full-shell protection.
Overlapping Duplex air cells line the shell providing intermittent pneumatic compression for 3x faster oedema reduction(1).
The front panel is pre-inflated and combined with the three overlapping aircells, provides a 'total contact' fit.
SoftStrike technology absorbs and dissipates shock, while the light weight and lab-tested rocker sole combine to encourage a natural gait and a continuation of everyday activities
Includes Walker Stretch sock
