The Bledsoe Achilles Boot saves time by eliminating casting series required to stretch the achilles tendon during rehab.

Bledsoe Achilles Boot Features:

• Aluminum boot shell and upright system that, unlike plastic boots, can be reformed to fit virtually any leg or ankle shape
• Four cast inter-locking 10 degree urethane wedges provide fast change of foot angle allowing the foot to be plantar flexed, while still steady with good ground contact.
• Contains three layers of pads that contour to the ankle shape and support the ankle for total control
• Unique rocker design allows patients to closely simulate a near normal gait without abnormal loads on any joints
• Optional air ankle/heel pad allows for ability to adjust ankle pressure for increased comfort and provides pneumatic ankle support
