Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot

The Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot provides effective stabilization, compression, and comfort for a wide range of foot and ankle injuries. Commonly referred to as the Aircast AirSelect Short, this boot delivers the same trusted protection as the Aircast Standard model but in a lower-profile design for improved mobility. It's ideal for treating forefoot, midfoot, and hindfoot injuries, as well as metatarsal fractures, severe ankle sprains, and post-operative recovery.

Featuring an anatomically designed semi-rigid shell, the AirSelect Short offers superior protection while allowing a more natural walking motion. Integrated aircell technology delivers targeted compression to reduce swelling, and the SoftStrike™ rocker sole minimizes impact on the injured area, helping speed up healing. Whether prescribed for short-term recovery or longer rehabilitation, it provides the comfort and support patients need to stay active during recovery.

How It Works

The Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot combines pneumatic compression with lightweight structural support to promote faster, more comfortable recovery. Dual integrated aircells within the semi-rigid shell inflate easily with the built-in hand pump to deliver targeted, adjustable compression. This helps reduce swelling, improve circulation, and stabilize the foot and ankle throughout healing.

Meanwhile, the patented SoftStrike™ sole absorbs impact with every step, while the rocker bottom design encourages a smooth, natural walking motion. Together, these technologies protect healing tissues, minimize pain, and allow patients to stay mobile during rehabilitation.
