Product Details

Aircast Air-Stirrup Ankle Brace

When you've just injured your ankle, the most important thing is to recover quickly so you can return to everyday life. The Aircast Air-Stirrup Ankle Brace is commonly worn immediately after injuring your ankle and throughout recovery because it helps accelerate rehabilitation.

Since 1978, the Aircast Support has been the brace that the medical community has turned to for managing ankle injuries and has been cited in over 100 medical journals for its superior performance in helping to heal ankle injuries.

What's Included?

  • 1 x Stirrup Ankle Brace
  • 1 x Inflation Tube

Features and Benefits of the Aircast Air-Stirrup

  • Anatomically-designed, semi-rigid shells for protection
  • Lined with patented Duplex air cell system for support
  • Graduated compression during ambulation
  • Compression promotes efficient oedema reduction
  • Helps accelerate rehabilitation of ankle sprains
  • Prevents inversion and eversion
  • Aircell system to enhance circulation and reduce swelling
  • Pre-inflated air cells for easy application
  • Adjustable straps to fit most individuals
  • Can get the Air-Stirrup wet
  • Streamlined to fit in shoes for protected weight-bearing

Indications for the Air-Stirrup Ankle Support

  • Acute injury
  • Chronic instability
  • Post-operative conditions
  • Post-surgical repair
  • Sprained ankle (grades one, two and three)
  • Osteoporosis

Pre-Inflated Air Cells

The Aircast Air-Stirrup Ankle Brace features two pre-inflated, overlapping air cells (distal and proximal) to provide support and produce graduated compression while you walk around. This helps reduce oedema (i.e. swelling which is caused by fluid trapped in your body's tissues) and helps accelerate rehabilitation of ankle sprains. The support is anatomically designed to help immobilise the area and limit any pain you're experiencing as a result of the condition.

Can These Air Cells Be Inflation Further?

Absolutely. If you find that your air cells lose bulk over time, simply take the inflation tube that is supplied with your brace and inflate the cells on either side further until a comfortable level of padding is achieved.

Waterproof Design

Designed to allow to you perform all the activities you enjoy, the Aircast Air-Stirrup Brace has a waterproof design. This allows you to wear the support in the pool or in the shower if your physician has told you to wear it at all times. After you get the support wet, it should be rinsed and allowed to air dry before you use it again.

This ankle brace is perfect for me, to stabilise my ankle and reduce the pain a year after complex ankle surgery to repair a very serious injury, enabling me to get back to walking more normally.
Delivery was quick and website is very good, with a lot of information to help you choose the right product for your needs.

As one of the sides will not remain inflated, the foot injury is irritated further by the way the shell digs into it!
I will keep trying to seal the air in; but if that doesn’t work I will have to return the item.

This item seems quite expensive and I expect it won't last more than a few months continuous use (if needed). However, it does the job well. It may not fit easily in all trainers and pushes the trainer out wide around the ankle. I found that this actually helped as it stopped the trainer aggravating the damaged tendons on the outside of the foot. Overall, I would buy again and recommend but retain an interest in alternatives.

Purchased this for my husbands acute sprained ankle. He was unable to wear it with any of his boots or shoes so really disappointing. Good quality product that should work well, just not for him.

I sprained my ankle while living in France. This is the standard issue brace by the A & E department that I visited. The French Doctors have chosen it for a reason. It works. It feels light but does in fact give great support. Certainly helped me get on with life while my ankle recovered.
