Description
The DJO Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot focuses pneumatic support on the foot, with a lower shell that leaves the calf free. A pre-inflated front panel and two adjustable distal aircells provide compression for forefoot and mid-foot injuries.
- Short Profile Shell – the lower height targets the forefoot and mid-foot while keeping the lower leg unrestricted.
- Pre-Inflated Front Panel – the front panel aircell arrives inflated and ready, with no setup before the first fitting.
- Two Distal Aircells – adjustable aircells add compression at the ankle and tune with the integrated inflation system.
- SoftStrike Heel – a shock absorbing heel matrix dissipates heel strike energy and reduces heel pain.
Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot with Short Profile Shell
The boot is designed for metatarsal fractures, forefoot and mid-foot injuries, bunionectomy recovery and soft tissue injuries. Its lower profile keeps the support focused on the foot while the two adjustable distal aircells add compression at the ankle. The semi-rigid shell is trimmable and heat moldable, so the frame can be custom fit to the limb for comfort. The three strap system evenly disperses pressure, and the shell contours around the ankle bones to limit pressure points. Five sizes from X-Small to X-Large cover men shoe sizes up to 13 and above and women shoe sizes up to 15 and above.
Features and Benefits
- Pre-Inflated Front Panel: the front panel aircell ships pre-inflated and works with two adjustable distal aircells for compression.
- Integrated Inflation System: the built-in inflation control adjusts each distal aircell without a hand bulb or separate pump.
- Short Profile Shell: the lower height focuses support on the forefoot and mid-foot while leaving the calf free.
- SoftStrike Heel Cushioning: a shock absorbing matrix at the heel dissipates heel strike energy and reduces heel pain.
- Low Profile Rocker Sole: the rocker bottom enables a normal walking gait and reduces forefoot angulation and knee hyperextension.
- Three-Strap System: the straps evenly disperse pressure and eliminate pooling of edema.

Why Choose the Aircast AirSelect Short
Short focuses AirSelect support on the foot, with a lower shell that leaves the calf free. It suits forefoot and mid-foot injuries where full height coverage is not needed.
- Foot-Focused Support – the shorter shell targets metatarsal and forefoot injuries while keeping the lower leg unrestricted, which many patients find easier to wear all day.
- Pre-Inflated Front Panel – the front aircell arrives ready, and two distal aircells add adjustable compression around the ankle.
- Compact Daily Wear – brace heights run from 9.1 to 12.1 in across the five sizes, keeping the boot compact through the day.
- Natural Walking Gait – the low profile rocker sole and SoftStrike heel cushion each step, which supports a steadier stride.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
What injuries is this walking boot used for?
It is designed for metatarsal fractures, forefoot and mid-foot injuries, bunionectomy recovery and soft tissue injuries. Your clinician decides when a shorter walker fits your treatment plan.
How do I choose the right size?
Match your regular shoe size to the size chart in the specifications above, using the men or women column that applies to you. When a shoe size falls on a boundary between two sizes, the larger size is the safer choice for a swollen foot.
How do I inflate the aircells?
Use the integrated inflation system on the boot to adjust the two distal aircells until the fit feels snug and supportive. The front panel aircell is pre-inflated, and the aircells should not be over-inflated.
How should the liner and straps be cared for?
Hand wash the foam liner in water with a mild detergent and let it air dry flat. Wipe the shell and straps clean with a damp cloth, and keep the boot away from direct heat while it dries.
Are replacement parts available?
Yes, replacement liner and insole kits, strap kits and an extension strap kit are offered for this model by the manufacturer. Order the kit that matches your model and size so the parts fit the shell correctly.
What warranty covers this walking boot?
DJO warrants this walking boot against defects in material and workmanship for six months from the date of sale, and DJO will repair or replace a unit that fails under that coverage. Keep your purchase records so a claim can be matched to the sale date.
