DarcoSlim Line Cast Boot, Large

I'm a size 10 (UK size) foot. Although I bought this shoe in a 'large' size, it only just fits the length of my foot. Unfortunately, given that it's meant to be worn over a plaster cast, the velcro fasteners on the bottom of the shoe are nowhere near long enough to fasten together over the cast itself. I've had to buy seperate, longer velcro straps to fasten the two sides together. I've noticed that the shoe is manufactured in China which may account for the description as being optimistically described as 'large'. Otherwise it seems sturdy enough to last for the time I'll be in my cast.

Very good

Good looking boot style cast shoe to go over your leg cast so you can walk on it. Disclaimer first: Always follow your doctor's orders considering weight-bearing on your injured leg or foot. Walking on it too soon can lead to poor healing and a longer recovery. Ok, that's out of the way! This is a substantial cast shoe, kind of like a stylish black high top Converse. It is a little more difficult to put on than the flimsy shoes most doctors offices provide but it doesn't slip and slide around, it protects the toes and makes walking safer and easier. I have problems that put me in leg casts fairly often and this is the best cast shoe I have had. I liked having the built in walking heel in a previous cast but I like this shoe as much. I recommend it!

Excellent product. Makes getting around much easier. The bottom of the boot is very well made and should hold up well for the 4-6 weeks I'll be in my cast. The boot keeps the cast from touching the ground and therefore cleaner, and the large flat bottom adds stability. Sizing is always an issue for something like this. I wear a men's 10.5 shoe and therefore ordered a size large in the cast boot. It's about 12 inches long. In hindsight, I perhaps should have ordered an extra large because my toes do extend over the edge of the boot about 1/4 inch. On the other hand, the large is probably less clumsy than the extra large would have been. For those few miserable weeks that you have to be in a foot/ankle cast, the Darco Int'l Slimline Adult Cast Boot sure helps.

This cast shoe works well. It is very adjustable in all directions, and the wide strap across the foot makes it feel very stable. My PT wanted the details so she could recommend it to others she worked with. The only reason I didn't five it 5 stars: one elastic strap across the ankle attaches to a velcro closure that is on the outside of my foot, far down near the floor. With a cast up to my knee and limited ability to bend it, it is difficult to reach the that particular closure. More difficulty getting it open than attached. Sizing: I wear size 10 women's shoe, and the large is just the right length.
