100% Satisfaction guarantee. If for any reason the product fails you. We just require that you provide photographic proof of failure. Please do not throw away the product. Simply snap a photo of the issue and we will either replace or refund you for any issues. Please note that cast cracking is a result of the application process.

*This product should be applied by a trained medical professional or for educational training. Always consult a doctor before use. Note: A waterproof cast is an alternative to traditional casting materials that cannot get wet. If a traditional cast gets wet, it is ruined and must be removed immediately. However, this does not mean that you can get your waterproof cast wet all day long and not allow a drying period. We recommend that you allow a drying period between wetting times such as bathing or swimming. A hairdryer on a low setting can speed up the process, but body heat needs to evaporate the remaining damp water inside the cast. This allows the patient to get a cast wet, and it not be ruined. However, the cast still needs a drying time that will vary by person and cast type between wet periods to achieve full dryness.
What is the difference between OrthoTape NEAL, AquaCast, and Delta Dry?
The three main differences are:
OrthoTape NEAL is an easy one-piece design. It also has more breathability and does not pool water at the elbow or heel of the foot.
AquaCast has been around for a while now and many doctors are familiar with it.
Delta Dry is a lightweight material that can dry fast and is easy to apply.
Will my Doctor put this on for me?
Many times it depends on the doctor as to whether they want you to be in a waterproof cast. Usually, you will ask one and they may say no, and you ask another and they are happy to apply it for you. So it is best to ask around to get the right doctors as they all differ in opinion. Let your doctor know you will be compliant with all instructions and take care of the waterproof cast. If you do find a doctor that is willing to work with you. Let us know as we are compiling a list and can share it with others like you.
Why don't doctors already carry this item?
It may be they are not familiar with it. It could also be due to space in the office for inventory. Or it could simply be it is not covered by many insurances, so it is an out-of-pocket cost. Either way, you can always take it to them or have us ship it directly to their office for your visit. Please let your doctor know about us so they can tell their other patients about us.
How long does it take to dry and do I use soap to clean it?
The cast can dry to touch in as little as 1/2 hour to an hour. It should be completely dry in under 12 to 24 hours. It is recommended that you give yourself one day's rest in between getting wet times to allow your skin to dry out better. To dry it faster, you can just use a hairdryer on a low setting or check out our cast cooler. It gets the cast dry super fast. To clean just use gentle soap and if does begin to stink, you can soak it in a mixture of 1 cup hydrogen peroxide to 1 gallon water strength. You can also mix in 1/3 cup of rubbing alcohol if you want to kill any bacteria in the cast.
How fast can you ship it?
We ship super fast, same day by 3 PM EST. At the checkout, you will be able to upgrade your shipping to faster options. It is best to get it in advance of your doctor's appointment rather than the day of. Always plan and get the supplies you need sooner than you need them. True you may need to do Overnight, but it is better to have the supplies in hand 1-2 days before the appointment.
Do I need to be a doctor to purchase this item?
No, we are happy to sell this to those doing self-help or patients taking this to their doctor. It's always good to insist on your rights as a patient and tell your doctor what you want. Let them know you want a waterproof cast for your medical care. This way they know your wishes upfront. There are many medical opinions out there. Many of our doctors even send patients to us.
How can salt water or chlorine affect the cast?
We recommend washing the cast with fresh water after swimming in salt or chlorine water. This will extend the life of your cast.

The product is exceptional. My 8 year old son was able to submerge himself in the water. We'd had to cancel his sports camps for the summer due to his broken arm. The swim cast saved our summer. We still got to enjoy both river and lake activities. The cast did not cause any itching. I believe that sweat was washed away while my son was swimming. For this reason, alone, I think all casts should use this technology.I was disappointed, however, that customer service did not help to get my next day air shipping fee reversed. I had to drive 70 miles each way to the nearest UPS store to pick up our package in time for the Orthopedic appointment, 3 business days after the order was made. The shipping fee was nearly 3 times more than the padding kit. Also, the doctor recommended that I order two more kits to be used over six weeks. My son healed after only four weeks leaving me with an extra kit. I'd like to return the extra kit but, return policy lists only damaged or incorrect orders.

Mr.
I haven't had other casts before, so I have nothing to compare. I was unwilling to give up my daily cardio or subject my colleagues to a stinky cotton/plaster cast, so decided on this. I wash it in plain water every other day, and have had no odor or discomfort problems. The instructions here that a cast will fully dry in 20-30 minutes are... highly optimistic. I'd say it takes about 90 minutes, and was warned by my ortho tech to make sure I did get it dry as quickly as possible to prevent soggy skin/maceration issues. He also does not think the thumb stockinette included in the adult male kit is large enough for an average adult male thumb, so he uses the arm from an infant or child kit. On the balance, I've been super happy with this.

My 10 year old has now had 2 of your casts and we are ordering #3 and 4… absolutely amazing! Light! Drips dry everytime! And fun colors! Thank you!
I bought these for a friend who is disabled as a gift and would have given 5 stars but the elastic on one of the crutches that holds them together when they are in the folded position broke the same day we got them. Thy still function just fine and she absolutely loves the pink color. She said the forearm cuff is loose around her arms and they are comfortable to use whereas her old one stuck to her arms. The good definitely outweighs the bad and they were money very well spent on a very deserving person.
I am so sorry to hear this. We do offer a 6 month warranty. Just contact us if there are any issues and we can ship out a replacement.
The tape is much improved. It is easy to work with and laminates well. I would have preferred to have had cotton padding rather than synthetic for its heft and bulk. Overall a great kit!
I have been in and out of a boot for years due to a total ankle replacement and it's complications. This is the second boot I've ordered. Love this design and fit.
My 3 year old broke his arm and the cast they put on him was a nightmare. The first couple days wearing the hospital cast I knew there had to be something better. I did some searching and came across the waterproof cast. I ordered it and took it to his doctor and asked to put it on. At first they said “NO” but another doctor there heard what I wanted and she has been on the hospital for awhile now to order a waterproof cast and she was wanting to see how they did, so she replaced the old cast with the one I ordered. I can’t wait to show them how great it is. My son has be swimming, fishing ( which leads to getting muddy) and the cast has been awesome. No stressing about getting it wet or dirty. We can just rinse it off!!
