Aircast AirSelect Elite Tall Cast Boot | Orthopedic CAM Boot for Broken Ankle & Fractures | DJO Enovis
The Aircast AirSelect Elite Tall by DJO Enovis is the premium-tier pneumatic orthopedic walking boot in the AirSelect family — engineered for ankle fractures, severe sprains, Achilles tendon injuries, and post-operative lower leg recovery. It shares the same proven shell and aircell system as the AirSelect Standard, but features an upgraded premium liner for enhanced comfort during extended wear. The tall height provides greater immobilization above the ankle, making it the right choice when a boot for broken ankle or high ankle injury is required. The Elite is only available in the tall height — for forefoot injuries, see the AirSelect Short.
What this is (and what people call it)
This is a removable CAM walker boot (Controlled Ankle Motion) — also called an aircast boot, cast boot, fracture boot, medical boot, or walking cast boot for broken foot. It fits either the right or left foot — no side selection needed at checkout. The Elite is the premium-liner version of the AirSelect; the AirSelect Standard Tall shares the same shell and sizing but has a standard liner at a lower price point.
AirSelect Elite vs. AirSelect Standard — Which Should I Choose?
| Feature | AirSelect Elite Tall | AirSelect Standard Tall |
|---|---|---|
| Liner | Premium upgraded liner — enhanced padding & comfort | Standard liner — clinical performance |
| Shell | Identical — same shell as Standard | Identical — same shell as Elite |
| Aircell System | Pre-inflated front panel + 2 distal aircells | Pre-inflated front panel + 2 distal aircells |
| Height | Tall only | Tall only |
| Sizing | XS – XL (same internal measurements) | XS – XL (same internal measurements) |
| Best for | Extended wear, maximum comfort during recovery | Clinical performance at a lower price point |
| Price | $120.99 | View Standard Tall → |
Bottom line: If you'll be wearing the boot for weeks and want the most comfortable fit, choose the Elite. If you want the same proven AirSelect shell at a lower cost, the Standard Tall delivers identical clinical performance.

⚠️ Important: How to Find Your Size
CAM walking boots accommodate a range of shoe sizes — the extra room allows for bandaging, swelling, post-surgical dressings, and thick socks common during recovery. For the most accurate fit, measure your internal foot length (heel to tip of longest toe while standing) and match it to the chart below. Use shoe size as a secondary confirmation.
- Choose the smaller size if swelling is minimal.
- Choose the larger size if you have significant swelling or thick bandaging.
When in doubt, go up a size.
| Size | Men's US Shoe | Women's US Shoe | Internal Foot Length | Part Number |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| X-Small | < 3 | < 3 | 8.3" (21.0 cm) | 01EP-XS |
| Small | 3 – 6 | 3 – 6 | 9.3" (23.5 cm) | 01EP-S |
| Medium | 6 – 9 | 6 – 9 | 10.2" (26.0 cm) | 01EP-M |
| Large | 9 – 12 | 9 – 12 | 11.2" (28.5 cm) | 01EP-L |
| X-Large | > 12 | > 12 | 12.2" (31.0 cm) | 01EP-XL |
* Internal foot length: measure from your heel to the tip of your longest toe while standing. If your measurement falls between sizes, size up to accommodate swelling or bandaging.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the AirSelect Elite and the AirSelect Standard?
The AirSelect Elite features a premium upgraded liner with enhanced padding and comfort compared to the standard AirSelect. Both models share the exact same shell dimensions, sizing, and internal foot length measurements. The Elite is the better choice for patients who will wear the boot for extended periods and want maximum comfort. The Standard is the right choice for the same clinical performance at a lower price point. See the AirSelect Standard Tall.
Does the AirSelect Elite come in a short version?
No. The AirSelect Elite is only available in the tall height. If you need a short/low-top boot for forefoot or midfoot injuries, see the AirSelect Short (standard liner), which is designed for metatarsal fractures, bunionectomy, and forefoot conditions.
What injuries is the AirSelect Elite Tall designed for?
The AirSelect Elite Tall is designed for ankle fractures (boot for broken ankle), severe ankle sprains, Achilles tendon injuries, stress fractures of the lower leg, and post-operative ankle recovery (surgery boot). The tall height provides greater immobilization above the ankle compared to the short boot.
How do I measure for the AirSelect Elite Tall?
The most accurate method is to measure your internal foot length — from your heel to the tip of your longest toe while standing barefoot on a hard floor. Match that measurement to the size chart above. Use your shoe size as a secondary confirmation only. If your measurement falls between sizes, size up to accommodate swelling, bandaging, or post-surgical dressings.
Does this boot fit both left and right feet?
Yes. The AirSelect Elite Tall is a universal fit design — one medical boot fits either the left or right foot. No side selection is needed at checkout. Simply place your foot on the footbed with your heel seated at the back and fasten the straps.
Is the AirSelect Elite FSA/HSA eligible?
Yes. The Aircast AirSelect Elite Tall is FSA and HSA eligible. HCPCS codes: L4361 (with air) and L4360 (without air).
How do the aircells work and how do I adjust them?
The AirSelect Elite features a pre-inflated front panel aircell that provides immediate compression right out of the box — no pumping required to get started. The two customizable distal aircells can be adjusted using the bulb pump: squeeze to add compression, press the valve to release air. Adjust throughout the day as swelling changes — typically more air in the afternoon when swelling peaks, less in the morning.
