United Ortho USA14013 Short Cam Walker Fracture Boot, Small, Black

This was recommended by doctor for broken sesamoid. Way better than a traditional cast! It really helped. There is a little weight to it but it’s not bad. I wear a women’s size 6 shoe. I ordered this in the extra-small size and it fit perfectly. As of 10/23/25, you have to scroll down the page to see the size chart. It is not listed in the main listing photos at the top of the page (in the app). Simple hook-and-loop closures make this easy on, easy off. One thing I don’t like (but would have the same issue with a traditional cast) is how unevenly I walk with it on. So much so it started causing me hip and back pain. Completely by accident, I found something that attaches to the shoe of your good foot to help EVEN you UP. That item was a game changer. Doctors should recommend that item to patients whenever they recommend this boot.

I am currently undergoing physical therapy for severe Plantar fasciitis and a bone spur that pokes up into my Achilles tendon. The therapy is designed to stretch and strengthen the surrounding muscles and tendons. So far, it has been pretty effective, with the next step, if the therapy isn't enough, being some serious surgery to remove the bone spur, with downtime in a cast for 16 weeks. The therapy consists of exercises that do cause a bit of pain and discomfort on their own, which requires icing down the ankle and heel area afterwards, just as playing tennis or hiking through the woods, or even going on a long walk requires. The problem with the icing, though, is that the long, narrow ice pack designed to wrap around the foot is quite difficult for me to secure correctly. My Physical Therapist said to put it in a pillowcase and tie it around my foot. I just can't get that to work. I've also tried securing it with an Ace bandage, but that is hard as well, since I am pretty inflexible and tall (this is part of the underlying cause of the Plantar fasciitis and bone spur). After seeing someone in a walking boot, I decided to try ordering one so that I could put the ice pack in the boot, then my foot in the pillow case, then tighten the boot around the ice pack. It works great! I ordered the XL boot even though my foot is a large size. Now I can comfortably wear the ice pack, and even walk around if I feel like it. Now I'm icing more frequently, and this makes doing my Physical Therapy exercises far more comfortable. Pros: • Inexpensive and built for wear outside and inside • Velcro straps and padding hold the ice pack securely • Lightweight Cons: • None

This is a very nice boot. So much better than the one in the Dr's office but it would not fit me. I wear a 7 shoe & ordered a small & it was too big. Not comfortable for me. I have ordered 2 other ankle braces from Amazon & am going to try to get by with them for a bit longer. Don't hesitate to buy this boot if you have a foot or ankle issue, It is a great supportive boot & the short boot is awesome.

I sprained my foot attempting to walk up stairs (graceful, I know!) I ordered this boot and wasn’t sure the size due to no size chart available. I based my sizing on other boot sizing and went with a medium. That was a mistake. The boot is too big, but I have figured out a workaround. Once that was figured out, the boot works great. The straps are very secure and I’m not worried about it coming loose or further injuring my foot. I’ve had it just over a week now and I have no complaints except it does get a bit heavy by the end of the day (as I imagine they all do. I’ve never had to use a boot before). I feel very secure in this boot. I like the lower boot height. It’s less intrusive and blends in more with your clothing than a taller boot would. Overall, I like this boot and recommend it. I would ask the manufacturer to add a size chart to help others avoid buying the wrong size.

Ok, I ordered this product because my Achilles was killing me after some strenuous exercising I should not have been doing. Anyway, I was in PAIN PAIN PAIN. I called my Dr and the receptionist said they were all booked up and I already had an appointment scheduled for the following month. So, I asked to be put on the waiting list and called if a opening came. Well, no call. I was taking Ibuprofen for the pain and swelling for a few days, Then it got worse when I walked on it, so I knew I had to do something. I read about Achilles injuries and from what I was reading I could tell it wasn't torn because I didn't hear a POP, and I could still move my ankle/foot up and down. So I read that immobilization, moderate stretching and pain meds were the only option. So I ordered this boot from Amazon. The previous purchasers answered all my questions which helped. I wanted to wear it over my shoe, so I could drive when I took it off. But that didn't work, so I had send it back and get a smaller one. The return was fast, and I had a new one in a few days. My wife was on the floor laughing at me when she saw the boot arrive! "Oh Lawdy...the man done ordered a boot from Amazon" were her exact words as she fell over in laughter. Well, I didn't care....Laugh on my love! Now, from the first time I put it on I could tell the difference. It took 90% of the pressure off my Achilles. It felt GREAT, No Pain! Now, when I used it for a long time (all day, lot of walking), my Achilles would get a little sore, but nothing like before. Also note, you need to add a lift insert inside your opposite shoe, or your opposite hip will start hurting from the height difference. They give you extra sponges to go into the boot, but I just put those inside my left shoe to counter the height difference. Boot felt great! Ok, I wore it for about a month, off and on, and my Achilles felt better day by day. So good...that some days I didn't even wear the boot, but it would swell up and be sore by the end of the day if I didn't. So my Dr appointment finally comes, and I go in. I'm in my boot and the Dr is like.....WTF did you do. I explained what happened and how I tried to get in to see her and she's PISSED at her receptionist for not booking me. Then she asks, who gave you the boot? what did they say? I said Amazon, She says, who's Dr Amazon ? LMBAO!!! I say no, the website....Amazon. She almost fell out the chair in laughter! Oh, she had a good gut-busting laugh at my amazon boot. That was until she tells me to take it off and get on the table. My Achilles was still very swollen and twice the size of my other. But not sore at all. She panics, "OMG you probably ruptured this thing. You need to see an Orthopedic today". She starts calling around to find a Ortho Dr that will see me that day. But it's Friday and they are all gone. So she schedule me to see him on Monday. She forgot about all the other things I came for like my cholesterol results. She was in full panic mode. She suspected the tendon was hanging on by a thread and I must stay off it. But by this time, me and my handy-dandy boot was just fine. I'd made it this long with just the boot, I was feeling better, so I was not in a rush to go see / pay for another Dr. Besides, It's my son's birthday weekend and I'm not canceling it for this when I'm in NO PAIN. She tells me to go home stay off of it until Monday. Me and my boot go to the race car track so my son can diver the indoor carts for his birthday. Now, I did sit down, and (as bad as I wanted to) I didn't take off my boot and ride the go-carts with him. Well my Dr calls me on my way to the go cart track and says she want me to go to the emergency room and get a MRI. WTF? Now we all know the price of emergency rooms, even with insurance, and the wait time. However, I could tell she was very concerned and I didn't want her worrying all weekend so after my son's birthday outing, I waited until about 12am and went into the emergency room, in my HANDY DANDY BOOT ! Finally see the ER Dr comes over and I explain everything and she's also laughing at my Amazon Boot. Then she informs me that they don't do MRI's in the ER. Ok, I just wasted 2 hrs. But she does look at my Achilles an tell me that it's probably ruptured but the Orthopedic will be able to better tell. So they didn't charge me anything. YEA! Put on my boot and I hobbled on back home. Well, Monday comes, and I realize my appointment had been changed to 8am instead of the 1pm. My Dr ! So I had to come back on Tuesday. SMH. Finally I see the Orthopedic Dr on Tuesday, Explain everything and why I'm there. He has a good chuckle bout my amazon boot as well. He says my tending is not torn, its tendonitis and very tight. Wearing the boot actually helped keep it from further damage. Then he says the magic words " Mr Terry, you did an EXCELLENT JOB, you did everything I would have done for you". You took pain meds, got it immobilize with a boot and kept wearing it for over a month. That's GREAT! Now, In my mind, I'm doing a touch-down dance on my Dr's and wife's face, because they ridiculed me for ordering this boot. It saved me, time money, and possible surgery had I not ordered it. My whole thinking was....It's 35.00! Can hurt to try it. Not like I can make it worse with the boot. Also, I did order and wear the Ankle Support Brace by Bodyprox as well. But didn't were it very often. Now, I"m not telling you to do this, this is just what I did. I suggest you go to a Dr. and get checked out. I got lucky it's wasn't torn, but this boot was a life saver.

I bought this boot after breaking three toes from a slip in a staircase, and it was exactly what I was hoping for. Very easy to put on, and keeps your toes protected from being hit by objects as the footbed protrudes beyond your toes. Walking with it really alleviates the pressure from the toes and distributes it evenly across the heel. The rubber pad on the bottom is solid and well-made - and didn't scuff my floor (which I was concerned about). All in all well worth the cost.

Me gustó porque es de buena calidad pero, se puede usar para protección, de un pisotón, no para quien no pueda apoyar el pie

GOOD

Used this boot for recovering from broken toes and foot trauma. Was a life saver. Was able to move around without crutches. This boot is a a deal for the cost, quality, and support it provides

Está cómoda, pesa un poco menos que la férula. Se ve de buena calidad y materiales resistentes. Llegó antes de lo esperdo.
