Walking Boot Size Guide
Shoe size gets you close — these checks get the boot right the first time, because opened boots cannot be returned.
Quick Answer
What size walking boot do I need?
Walking boot sizes follow your normal shoe size: the full-length boot comes in S (35–38), M (39–41), and L (42–46), and the short boot in Medium (UK 6–8) and Large (UK 8.5–10.5). If you are between sizes or managing swelling, choose the larger size.
Start with your shoe size
Walking boot sizes map to your normal shoe size. These are the current charts for our stocked boots (taken directly from the product data):
Full Length Air Walker Boot
| Size | Recommended Shoe Size |
|---|---|
| S | 35–38 |
| M | 39–41 |
| L | 42–46 |
Short Air Walker Boot
| Size | Recommended Shoe Size |
|---|---|
| Medium | UK 6–8 |
| Large | UK 8.5–10.5 |
Then run these five checks
- Foot length — if you are between shoe sizes, measure heel-to-longest-toe in cm and send it to us; boots are sized by physical fit, not fashion sizing.
- Toe position — toes should sit fully inside the boot's footbed with a thumb's width of space; toes at the very edge means size up.
- Heel position — the heel must sit back and down into the boot; a floating heel makes the rocker sole unstable.
- Sock thickness — measure with the sock you will actually wear; a thick sock can shift you a size.
- Swelling allowance — post-injury feet and ankles are often swollen; measure the foot as it is now, and prefer the larger size when torn.
Strap tightness
Straps should be firm from bottom to top without creating pressure points — you should not feel throbbing, numbness, or coldness in the toes. If the boot has air support, inflate gently only after the straps are set.
Between sizes?
Take the larger size — comfort and circulation beat snugness in recovery footwear — or send your shoe size, foot length, and sock plan on WhatsApp and we will confirm the size before dispatch. Choosing between boot heights? See short vs tall walking boot.

What size walking boot do I need?
Match your usual shoe size to the chart: full boot S (35–38), M (39–41), L (42–46); short boot Medium (UK 6–8), Large (UK 8.5–10.5). Between sizes or swollen? Take the larger size or confirm on WhatsApp.
Should I measure with the swelling?
Yes — measure the foot as it is now. Boots are worn during recovery, when swelling is present; sizing for the 'normal' foot leads to a boot you cannot wear.
Do socks change the size?
Thick socks can shift you up a size. Measure and decide with the sock you will actually wear in the boot.
Can I exchange a boot that doesn't fit?
Only if it is completely unopened and unused, within 3 days of delivery — which is exactly why we confirm sizing before dispatch.
