How to Use the All Purpose Boot

• Step 1: Place your foot gently into the boot, ensuring that your heel is positioned at the back of the boot for proper alignment.
• Step 2: Secure the boot by tightening the adjustable straps across the top of your foot. Ensure the straps are snug but not too tight to avoid restricting circulation.
• Step 3: For added comfort, adjust the removable insole as needed to customise the fit and support.
• Step 4: Walk with care, making sure to distribute your weight evenly as you move. The boot is designed to protect and support your foot during recovery.
• Step 5: Wear the boot as directed by your healthcare professional, whether for post-surgical use, injury recovery, or ongoing foot care.

Caring for Your DARCO All Purpose Boot

• Cleaning: To keep your  oot clean, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For tougher stains - use a mild soap solution. Avoid immersing the boot in water - as this may damage the materials.
• Air Dry: After cleaning, allow the boot to air dry completely before wearing it again. Do not use heat sources like hair dryers or radiators to speed up drying, as this can cause damage to the boot's materials.
• Insole Care: The removable insole can be cleaned separately. Gently wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Let it dry completely before reinserting it into the boot.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check the straps, stitching, and overall condition of the boot. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, consult your healthcare provider about replacing the boot to ensure continued support and safety.
• Storage: Store the boot in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this may cause fading or weakening of materials.

Important Safety Tips

• Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding how long and how often to wear the boot.
• If you experience discomfort, swelling, or any other unusual symptoms while wearing the boot - consult your healthcare provider immediately.
• Avoid walking on wet or slippery surfaces while wearing the boot to prevent falls or further injury.
