Interconnected aircells, located under the arch and in the back of the heel, exchange pressure to ease swelling and discomfort from plantar fasciitis, heel pain and Achilles tendonitis, while helping improve circulation. Made of lightweight, breathable neoprene, this easy slip-in design features an adjustable hook-and-loop closure for a comfortable fit in seconds. Must be worn over a sock.

1.0 out of 5 stars deflate easily, February 21, 2009

I have had 3 of these and they have all deflated within a couple of days. They were like a miracle cure for my Plantar Fasciitis at first. But, just walking around in them in shoes and sandals...nothing strenuous...they just lose air and go flat. I have no idea as to where the leaks occur. I have inspected them, but the problem area is not obvious. This is really a shame because the idea is 5 stars, but the execution is 0 stars. Totally unreliable. 3 for 3 deflations within 3 days. The manufacturer should have to recall these and fix the obvious problem!
UPDATE: I decided to try to find the air leak and did so by immersing in water and putting pressure on the foot pad. The leaks were in the same exact point on one of the ankle pads that has the air hose in it. About 1/2" from the airhose along the seam. So, the problem would appear to be inadequate sealing of the seam. Now, I am a large man and weigh around 210 lbs, so weight could be a factor, since the pressure on the seam would increase with weight.

I love this! I have plantar fasciitis which makes walking barefoot very painful. I can put this on and I am able to walk around the house comfortably. I can even fit larger shoes such as hiking boots over it.

The air cast worked provided great arch support when I was battling a case of plantar fasciitis, but the Amazon price is twice what I would have paid at Rite Aid. So in summary-good product, bad price.
