Description
Quick answer: This is the Össur Rebound Air Walker Short (Low-Top / “LT”) — a premium removable pneumatic CAM (controlled ankle motion) walking boot with an integrated air bladder for adjustable compression and swelling (edema) control. Its short, low-top design immobilizes and protects forefoot injuries, toe and metatarsal fractures, and minor ankle trauma without the bulk of a full-height boot — giving maximum lower-leg mobility and comfort. A rocker sole promotes a natural gait, ventilated panels keep it breathable, and a single-point air pump lets you fine-tune compression tool-free. Fits either the left or right foot. FSA/HSA eligible. (For above-the-ankle immobilization, see the Rebound Air Tall.)

About this product
Many patients call this an air cast boot, cast boot, or fracture boot — it’s a removable walking boot that immobilizes the foot/ankle while you heal, with pneumatic compression built in:
- Short / low-top design — lower profile than a tall walker; ideal for forefoot and toe/metatarsal fractures and soft-tissue trauma where full-height ankle immobilization isn’t needed, so you keep more lower-leg mobility.
- Integrated pneumatic air bladder — a fully integrated single-point air pump with a push-button release valve; internally linked medial and lateral bladders inflate evenly to give adjustable, even compression and help manage swelling — adjustable on the go, tool-free.
- Rocker bottom sole — engineered to promote a natural, stable gait and reduce stress on the foot.
- Breathable & comfortable — ventilated panels and moisture-wicking soft goods reduce microbial buildup; EVA construction absorbs shock at the heel; a trimmable semi-soft toe bumper adds protection against re-injury.
- Removable & closed-toe — take it off for washing, sleep, and skin checks (unlike a cast); the fully enclosed toe protects the foot.
- Fits left or right — no side selection needed.
Short vs Tall — choose the height
- Short / Low-Top (this) — lower profile; best for forefoot injuries, toe and metatarsal fractures, or when less ankle restriction is needed.
- Tall / High-Top (Rebound Air Tall) — extends above the ankle for maximum immobilization; best for ankle fractures, severe sprains, and Achilles injuries.
Sizing
Available in multiple sizes (S–XL typically) based on shoe size — check the size chart. The boot fits either foot.
| Size | Men’s US | Women’s US |
|---|---|---|
| XS | 2–4 | 3.5–5.5 |
| S | 4–7 | 5.5–8.5 |
| M | 7–10.5 | 8.5–12 |
| L | 10.5–12.5 | 12–14 |
| XL | 12.5–15 | 14–16.5 |
Fit tip: the shell is wide-set to accommodate bandaging and swelling. If you’re between sizes — or managing significant swelling or thick dressings — size up for adequate clearance. If swelling is minimal, choose the smaller size.

Frequently asked questions
What is a CAM walking boot?
A removable “controlled ankle motion” boot that immobilizes and protects the foot/ankle while you heal — an alternative to a cast that you can take off for washing and skin checks. This one adds an integrated air bladder for adjustable compression.
How do I choose my size?
By your standard US shoe size (XS: men’s 2–4 / women’s 3.5–5.5; S: 4–7 / 5.5–8.5; M: 7–10.5 / 8.5–12; L: 10.5–12.5 / 12–14; XL: 12.5–15 / 14–16.5). If you’re between sizes or have significant swelling or bandaging, size up. It fits either foot.
Short or Tall — which do I need?
The Short (low-top) is best for forefoot, toe, and metatarsal fractures or minor trauma. The Tall (high-top) extends above the ankle for ankle fractures, severe sprains, and Achilles injuries. Follow your clinician’s guidance.
How does the air pump work?
A single-point pump inflates linked medial/lateral bladders for even compression and swelling control; a push-button valve releases air — all tool-free, adjustable on the go.
Which foot does it fit?
Either — it fits the left or right foot, no side selection needed.
Is it removable?
Yes — unlike a cast, you can take it off for sleeping, washing, and skin checks (as directed by your clinician).
Do I need a prescription?
It may require a prescription as a clinical immobilization device — contact us and we can help. It’s typically FSA/HSA eligible.
Can I get it delivered in Brooklyn or shipped nationwide?
Yes — Stark Medical Supplies offers local pickup and delivery in Brooklyn and across NYC, plus USPS shipping throughout the continental U.S.
This is an orthopedic immobilization device. Use as directed by your clinician, who determines boot height, wear schedule, and weight-bearing status. This listing is informational and is not medical advice.
