Perfect Product That Does Exactly What It Says!
This product is a true "game-changer" in terms of its ability to perform EXACTLY as advertised in keeping a foot bandage/cast dry and, more importantly, allowing you to easily shower without adding more than about 30-60 seconds to your normal routine. I am so impressed with it that I will take a bit of time to write a more thorough review.When I found out that I needed to have some foot surgery that would require me to keep the bandage dry for three weeks after surgery, I asked the office staff at my doctor's office if they could recommend a product to help me do this without a lot of effort. They were less than useless, only offering the typical "garbage bag and duct tape" solution. I assumed that there must be a better way, so I did a quick Google search on something like "keep foot bandage dry when showering." I got plenty of results, one of which took me to Amazon (of course!) and this product.I read through the reviews, and since so many were positive, I ordered the Seal-Tight protector. For the life of me I can't understand how anyone could have any problem whatsoever with this product. It works PERFECTLY, and easily. Just follow the simple directions, the most important of which is to pull the protector all the way up your leg, and then pull it back down your leg an inch or so to cause the sealing flap to flip the other way and lay against your leg in a downward direction, to more easily shed water. Don't think too hard about this -- as soon as you try it once it will be obvious what to do. The seal is made of a high-quality rubber, kind of like what you would find on an underwater diving mask. It easily stretches over your leg/bandage/cast, yet seals TIGHTLY around your leg at the calf.I put a rubber bath mat in my shower to give me a soft surface to stand on (and, perhaps, be less slippery), so as to protect the Seal-Tight from possibly being punctured (it is guaranteed to last as long as a typical cast). I will admit that I also took one other precaution the first time that I used the Seal-Tight. Since my leg is hairy, I was concerned that it might not seal as tightly as it would without hair. Consequently, I wrapped the top of my calf with an Ace bandage before I put on the Seal-Tight, just in case some water leaked through, so that any water would be absorbed into the Ace bandage and not get down to my foot bandage. After my first shower I found out that this precaution was a complete waste of time -- my leg, despite the hair, was bone dry, so I never did the Ace bandage wrap again, and I NEVER had a drop of water inside the Seal-Tight in three weeks of showing.Finally, a slightly humorous anecdote. I like to take a long, hot shower, but this had to change while using the Seal-Tight. This is not because of any concern about leaks, but instead because my leg began to sweat due to being inside a sealed plastic bag inside a hot environment! So, I limited myself to a shorter shower until the bandage was removed and I could shower without the Seal-Tight!!!Seriously, this is an excellent product that allows you to maintain a normal personal hygiene regimen, with very little effort or additional time (30 seconds to put it on, and another 30 seconds to dry it off and remove it). I would give it 10 stars if that was possible.

I am sooooo glad I bought this.
Hubby had Achilles surgery last week and Dr. said DO NOT get his foot wet, so he didn't! He's got one of those giant boots on his leg, to his knee. This protector does exactly what it says it does, keeps his leg DRY. He is 6'1" and we bought the adult long leg and it it plenty big. It does NOT fit the toe area correctly over the boot however, but it IS long enough to compensate. It's very heavy duty vinyl, like a shower curtain and is made very well. Easy enough to get over the boot and is not too tight on his thigh and yet makes a watertight seal. Overall, it is just what we need for the next 8 weeks, money well spent and no trash bags and duck tape to wrestle with. Love it!

Works as hoped for and is well constructed. Comfortable stretchy gasket and thick roomy sleeve.
It works. I'm a large sized man and the rubber gasket fits over the large lower leg cast I now have, and it fits comfortably around my leg just above the knee. Zero wetness or moisture intrusion after a few showers.I had a splint before the cast that was above the knee, so I needed this long legged version. There is PLENTY of room inside the thick clear sleeve - length as well as girth - so the rubber gasket is probably the weak link in this product. I'll be interested to see how many times I can stretch the rubber gasket around my cast until it develops a tear. Maybe it never will :)I also purchased the regular length sleeve, since I now have a below the knee cast. Now, this long-length one will probably be a backup since there's excess sleeve to move out of the way in the shower after moving to a below the knee cast. It makes more sense to primarily use the regular length sleeve. It's constructed a bit differently, but of similar materials, and I expect similar performance.Reasonably priced and it's a must have if you're wearing a cast. I feel much safer wearing this in the shower. Plastic bag and tape just doesn't work.

works great but hole is tight
So I broke down and bought this because last time I had a cast I sucked it up and used plastic trash bags and I am glad I did. I am 5 ft tall and bag was able to fit over my cast which was under knee and did not leak at all in shower. I have used with the cast and had no leaks. the hole is pretty tight (probably so it won't leak, duh) and so it was a little challenging getting it on (my size 5 wmns foot) and actually very easy to take off.The bag itself is pretty thick and I durable. I have not yet tried to get it on my boot post surgery but i will try for review purposes and maybe see if my bare foot can get in and submerge. (thats future because I'm only week post surgery) I would like to think I if you had help with rubber you can get it over sutures and be fine.The product is a good price and works. If you are sore or tender it probably won't work for you because it is tight and will probably hurt going on.
