  1. Patient whose profusion is not as large as issue therefore it’s cooler
  2. Issue of foot drop prevention is addressed by “built-in wings” which doesn’t require any effort to use as they are built in

The use of wings lift heel slightly which provides good protection for heel pressure point issues and allows for emulation. Similar to the Rooke Boot HFS, there are pre-cut slots for SCD tubes. One size fits most-up to men’s size 14.
