Brace Direct Short Full Shell Walking Boot with Air Pump – Low-Profile Orthopedic CAM Walker for Foot & Ankle Fractures, Sprains & Post-Op Recovery Large (US Shoe Men 10.5-12 / Women 11.5-13)

The air pump is placed directly in the middle of your shin. Even when you inflate with air, you can feel the hardness of the pump roughly press against your shin every time you walk. Did not one person test the boot before manufacturing it? This boot has an unexplainable large piece of fabric/padding on the inside that is partially sewn into the lining and partially not? It's impossible to tell what the purpose of this is? Extra padding, but for only one side of your foot? No matter where you place this weird piece, your foot feels off and uneven. There are no instructions included to explain the purpose of the piece nor do their videos online make any mention of it. It's possible that this is a mistake as I cannot identify a good reason it exists. You have to pull the velcro straps VERY hard to get them to securely clamp down the top most plastic part. This is an issue because upon first pull you can tell the velcro is not going to be able to withstand that amount of force consistently over an extended period of time. I'm counting down the days until one of these straps inevitably rips and renders the boot even more useless than it already is.
