Review on 👣 SP Aircast Short Pneumatic Walker Brace/Walking Boot by Zha Rivera

I read all the reviews and realized I should have listened. But I needed it as soon as possible. I take into account that one injury can be different from the other, so it might not be perfect, but it can do the job. Due to the fact that my ankle was badly sprained, the side airbags were in a bad place. However, with some extra padding, the Aircast works perfectly and is very comfortable afterwards. Due to the need to add this I think the price of these boots is too high to be worth it. Still, I needed something to help me walk. I'm glad I can walk slowly again instead of jumping on one leg or using crutches. My body ached for three days from having to jump on one leg to move around the house. That being said, it works to prevent this from happening. However, the airbag on one side does not hold air when pressure is applied to it (which isn't a big deal to me since it's the same side of my leg that has the injury in the same place, I replaced the airbag with foam with Memory effect I also had to put an insole or foam padding under the foot (very uncomfortable after some time without it), but due to the price and mechanics this fails) Now for the pros and cons listed. Pros: I can walk slowly again. Cons: Airbag on one side won't hold air when pressure is against. Adding some padding to make this work and be comfortable is a must, which is a failing for this product. The sole is 3 inches higher than regular shoes, making it very difficult to walk. The size chart is not quite correct. I wear a size 9.5 (9 1/2) men's shoes and ordered medium according to their chart on their website and my toes are almost sticking out of the rim. I would recommend sizing up if you wear a size up
