The Elite is engineered to provide protection, comfort, and oedema control.

• Stable fracture of foot/ankle/lower leg
• Severe ankle sprain
• Post-operative immobilization
• Reduction of oedema (swelling) 3x faster(1)
• 4 aircells for support and comfort

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

How to fit

Features and Benefits

• Non-marking, skid resistant rubber tread
  
• For greater traction and longer wear
• Duplex technology
• Promotes faster oedema reduction, thus promoting pain relief, patient compliance and faster healing(1,2)
• SoftStrike technology
• Absorbs and dissipates the energy during heel strike
• Reduction of heel pain
• Low profile optimized rocker sole
• The lab-designed rocker sole, enables a normal walking gait with less forefoot angulations’ and reduces hyperextension of the knee
• Toe-off section continues the rocking motion, enhancing mobility
• Mid-stance section is designed to minimize hip differential
• Trimmable and heat moldable semi-rigid shell
• Makes it easy to custom-fit the brace to the patient for a more comfortable fit
• Sleek, open-frame design provides ventilation and maximum patient protection and compliance
• Shell contours around the malleoli, eliminating pressure for sustained comfort
• AirSelect boots have improved width around the ankle area as well as uniformed sizing throughout the various sizes of the boot (XS-XL)
• Three-strap system
• Evenly disperses pressure and helps reduce pooling of oedema
• Ease of application
