Short Description
Bledsoe's Flatform Mid-Calf Boot features a shorter mid calf height design, a flat sole inside, and a low rocker bottom for a normal walking pattern; available with an air ankle/heel pad for added comfort.
The Bledsoe Flatform Mid-Calf Boot features a slightly shorter height compared to a traditional tall height walker. It gets its name from having a flat sole inside which is ideally suited for treating metatarsal injuries and/or for preventing movement from the forefoot and toes. The Bledsoe Flatform Mid-Calf boot provides ankle and foot immobilization, and features a very low rocker bottom sole to normalize your walking pattern. The foam portion on the lower leg is secured with two straps instead of the standard three seen in tall size boots, and two straps are used across the forefoot. The foam liner very breathable and comfortable against your skin - perfect for use in hot, humid environments. A hiker tread pattern is used on the bottom of the boot to ensure safety and improved traction when walking outdoors. The Bledsoe Flatform Mid-Calf boot can be ordered with an optional air ankle/heel for improving the support and overall fit down low around your ankle joint.
