Overview
What This Product Is and Does
The Cast Shoe (Square Toe) is able to enclose voluminous bandages due to its square shape in the forefoot area and a flexible closure technology. For postprocessing the sole can be taken out. The upper is polyester material and the special sole warrants a physiological correct gait.

- Open the closure fully to allow full access for dressing changes or adjustments
- Close the closure from the rear forward to ensure the heel stays back
- Ensure the sole is fully removed before any post-processing of the cast
- Reinstall the sole only after the cast has been adjusted or the dressing changed
