FB Cover Photo CASTCOVERZ EXHIBIT v2 FB

You’ve been wearing your Bootz! walking boot cover, Armz!, or Legz! cast covers and it’s time to freshen them up. Caring for your CastCoverz! products is simple to do! Our boot, brace, splint, and cast covers are made of Lycra®/spandex (think bathing suit material) or fleece.

Here are your best care instructions, whether you prefer to wash by hand or use your washing machine:

  • Hand wash in cold
  • Drip dry
  • In your machine, use the delicate cycle on cold
  • Tumble dry with low heat

Interesting tidbit: You may notice snagging on the inside of your cover, this is from your rough casting material. Just imagine what your clothes and furniture may look like without your cast cover!

Care instructions vary slightly for CrutchWear® crutch covers or crutch pads and Slingz! arm slings:

  • CrutchWear: Spot clean by hand with cold water, drip dry
  • Slingz!: Hand wash with cold water (please remove faux-fur tube first), drip dry

No matter what your orthopedic event is, we’ve got you covered with CastCoverz! functional AND fashionable 20 branded product lines. Feel Better, Heal Better!

Keep Your Toes Cozy While Wearing a Cast or Walking Boot During This Polar Vortex

Cozy Feet

Nearly 187 million Americans are dealing with the Polar Vortex, a blast of arctic air that’s bringing historic cold weather to the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast. People are having to fend off hypothermia and frostbite, and it is absolutely necessary that extra precautions are being taken as temperatures and wind chills have approached record levels.

Are you or do you know someone wearing a leg cast or orthopedic walking boot and having to deal with this frigid weather? Orthopedic patients must keep their feet and toes warm and cozy during this extreme weather.

CastCoverz! Slickerz! are the perfect addition to your leg cast. Slip on one of these babies before having to weather the storm. Think of it as a pull on rain boot – full-footed, closed-toe design, made of weatherproof fabric to keep your leg cast and toes clean, and most importantly, DRY! The drawstring gives an added measure of protection from rain or snow going down your leg or cast. For additional comfort, try layering a Sleeperz! cast cover made of soft micro-fiber or fleece for ultimate warmth!

If a walking boot is your orthopedic accessory, BootGuardzXtreme! will be your lifesaver! These weatherproof, water-resistant covers for your orthopedic walking boot protect your boot, boot liner, and toes from the rain, snow, and slush. Be sure you include the optional Toasty Liner, made from super soft, washable sherpa, which will protect your toes and leg from the cold! Drawstring closure and tread (sole) of the boot is left exposed for proper footing and safety.

And if you have to wear your boot 24/7 and dread the thought of dragging that big ‘ole thing, and everything it walked on, into bed with you, slip on one of our Sleeping Bagz!, made of comfy-cozy fleece, to keep your toes warm and sheets protected from the cooties on the bottom of your boot.

At CastCoverz!, we have many fabrics to choose from, along with a total of 18 branded product lines. No matter what the orthopedic event, we’ve got you covered!
