| | Product Description | |
The Impact is the most significant advance in walker design in years. A real step forward! It has a unique design where the weight bearing surfaces of the foot rest on adaptive areas of the sole. The impact is absorbed at the heel strike. The footbed in the sole conforms to the natural shape of the foot for added comfort and stability.
No leg length discrepancy; Heel height is preserved eliminating pelvic tilt during gait. The front section of the walker is slightly flexible making initiation of the swing phase easier and more natural. The strapping system leaves tibialis anterior with maximum space. The yoke shaped strap attachments holding the foot straps allow the straps to rotate in multiple planes.
The result is adaptation to any foot shape whether bandaged or not, and maximum foot "grip" for minimal strap tension. Anatomically shaped uprights of one piece construction offer maximum comfort and stability, with minimum weight. A choice of two upright lengths. A unique sizing system. The sole color tells all. No more searching through cabinets. Optional Achilles Heel Wedges and Tibial Shells. | |
