The Aircast AirHeel treats plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and heel pain by applying pulsating compression with every step, which helps reduce swelling and enhance circulation. The medial/lateral stabilizers offer enhanced proprioception and stability. It's designed with 2 interconnected air cells, located under the foot arch and in back of the Achilles tendon.
When you take a step, the first air chamber (under the arch) begins to collapse, thus reducing the stress to the plantar fascia under the arch. Air is then forced into the chamber surrounding the Achilles tendon, which in turn inflates. The inflated Achilles chamber applies compression to the Achilles tendon to shorten the lever arm, thus reducing strain on the tendon. The AirHeel is made of a latex-free, compression spandex with air cells incased in waterproof nylon. These air cells have been tested with 1,000 lbs. of pressure, which enables them to withstand the force from running, jumping and landing, and other high-impact activities.
The Aircast AirHeel Arch Support is already inflated, so no pump is needed. It's constructed of lightweight, breathable materials so it's extremely comfortable to wear. Simply slip the support brace on like a sock, and adjust the Velcro strap for a custom fit. Universal fit allows the Aircast AirHeel Ankle Support Brace to be worn on either the left or right foot.

Keeping me from missi g work
I read a lot of reviews online and I was skeptical that this would work for me. I injured my Achilles tendon over 3 months ago and was having pain and swelling and the back of my heel. As soon as I needed to carry anything heavy it would act up and since I work for the postal service we're always doing a lot of walking and lift a lot of packages in the warehouse. I started using this and after a week my Achilles area started to feel like it was on the mend. It fits inside all of my different shoes and the cushioning helps dissipate the strain that I would feel at the end of the day. I'm almost 200 pounds and this has been a godsend. Thank you for carrying this product!
Starting to feel the difference
I'm now starting to feel a difference from wearing this aircast airheel brace now for 2 weeks. Don't have as much of the sharp pain in the morning or with lots of walking. Good purchase.

Ordered my replacement braces on Sunday. Monday was a holiday, but I still received it on Wednesday!! Excellent delivery turn around! I had no idea my brave was in such bad shape. I've had it for years but wasn't consistently wearing it until the last few months. I have a very bad foot and my ankle started turning in. Even spent 100 bucks on orthopedic shoes and while that helped, wearing my air cast has helped 100% more!!! Its supplies much needed support. It is comfortable and fits comfortably in my shoes!! Buying a couple back up braces!! And recommending your products to family members with similar foot issues!!
Great product, needs some design work...
It's a great product and truly helps with the pain of plantar fasciitis. I would like the ankle portion of the air cushion to be in a softer lined material. It's got some harsh edges and if you're not wearing high socks, it gets a little soar when wearing it all day.
So far it has helped
This brace is awesome I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis got a shot still had pain but used this brace one day and could tell it helped in just one day. You do need to wear a sock it will run on your leg but it helps with pain.
Thought you could wear it without socks...
This product might be ok if you wear socks but I wanted something that I could wear with sandals. The exposed material on the inside would cause blisters from friction. The photo shows no socks so I thought I could wear them with nothing.
Didn't work for me
I'm glad this worked so well for some people, but I found it actually made my foot hurt more.

Have been using air cast support for the last 8 weeks after developing Achilles tendonitis. Climbed Machu Pichua and was able to climb in and of a Zodiac while in the Galapos a week ago, Still wear it while walking. I am 80 yrs old.
Happy to find this here
These give me the support I need for my arthritic feet and ankles. Since I must wear them on both legs, I just wish they were also made in a shade of beige to wear in spring and summer when I can't hide them in boots. My podiatrist originally gave me a set of 2 of this identical support brace. They are beginning to wear out and my clinic won't give me more so I was happy to find the identical brand and style on DME-DIrect.
Works Well
It works pretty well. I have a calcaneal spur and plantar fasciitis which also affected my achilles tendon. The air cells on the sole and the achilles add the necessary support and walking is more comfortable while wearing it. The way I wear this is strapping it on over the top of another bandage that covered my heel.
