- Close the liner: Wrap it smoothly around the foot and lower leg without folds.
- Replace the front panel: Center it over the shin and foot, then fasten straps from the bottom upward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does insurance cover the Aircast AirSelect Elite Tall? Can I save vs. my doctor's office?
This product is HSA/FSA eligible, so you can use pre-tax dollars to purchase it directly. Insurance coverage varies by plan. If you have a high DME deductible, you may pay less buying here than obtaining a boot through your provider. Many clinics also allow patients to choose where they purchase DME items. Check your plan's DME benefits before purchasing through your provider.
What is the difference between the AirSelect Elite and AirSelect Standard Tall?
The Elite is the premium-comfort option, with an upgraded liner designed to provide additional cushioning during extended wear. Elite and Standard Tall use the same published size ranges and share key AirSelect design features, including a tall shell, rocker sole, front aircell, and adjustable distal aircells. Choose Elite when liner comfort is the priority; choose Standard Tall for core AirSelect features at a lower price point.
What injuries is the AirSelect Elite Tall walking boot used for?
It may be used when prescribed for stable ankle fractures, severe ankle sprains, Achilles tendon injuries, lower-leg stress fractures, and postoperative ankle or lower-leg recovery. A qualified healthcare professional should determine whether a walking boot is appropriate.
How do I choose an AirSelect Elite Tall size?
Measure heel-to-toe length while standing and compare it with the chart. Shoe size is a secondary guide. Allow for dressings or swelling as directed by your healthcare professional.
Does the AirSelect Elite Tall fit the left and right foot?
Yes. Its universal design fits either foot.
Does the AirSelect Elite come in a short version?
No. Elite is offered as a tall boot. For a lower-profile option used for many forefoot and midfoot conditions, consider the AirSelect Short with standard liner.

Can I walk in the AirSelect Elite Tall boot?
The rocker sole is designed to support a walking motion, but weight-bearing status depends on your injury and recovery stage. Walk only when your healthcare professional says it is safe, and use crutches or another aid if directed.
