XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover

The XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover is a revolutionary waterproof cast and bandage protector. Because of its patented vacuum seal, it will keep your cast or bandage completely dry. At any time, you can easily check the vacuum seal by simply seeing a dimple in the pump. With the XeroSox Waterproof Cast Cover you can "see and feel the seal!"

The XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover is also used for immediate postoperative physical therapy, allowing hydrotherapy right after surgery, which helps prevent swelling and stiffness and aids in a speedy recovery. Those with prosthetics may find using the XeroSox Waterproof Cast Cover quicker and simpler than removing their prosthesis. Also, with your lower extremity prosthesis in place and protected by Xerosox, you may now be able to stand comfortably in a pool or the ocean.

The XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover is rugged. It is made of durable high quality surgical latex. The special Non-Skid Grid protects the sole and helps keep the cast protector from slipping. The Built-In Pump not only creates the vacuum seal but also works as a gauge showing that the vacuum is intact and the cast cover is not leaking.

Sizing: Measure Limb Circumference

Arm: Measure the circumference of the arm about two inches above (proximal to) the cast or bandage. If the end of the cast is very close to the elbow, measure mid upper arm (bicep).

Do not measure around the cast, but around the bare arm or leg.

XeroSox Type Arm Circumference Length of Arm
X-Small Arm 6-7" 15"
Small Arm 7-9" 21"
Medium Arm 9-10" 26"
Large Arm 10" and up 28.5"
Small Half Arm 7.5 - 9.5" 16.5"
Large Half Arm 9.5" and up 18.5"

Leg: Measure the circumference of the leg just above the cast or bandage. If the end of the cast is very close to the knee, measure mid thigh.

*Important note - while measuring, if you are between two sizes (or it's close), always go with the larger size

The circumference is more important than the length because it is critical for a good seal.

XeroSox Type Leg Circumference Length of Leg
X-Small Leg 7.5-11" 19"
Small Leg 14-16.5" 29"
Medium Leg 16.5-21" 33"
Large Leg 21" and up 37"
Small Half Leg 10-13" 21"
Large Half Leg 13" and up 23.5"

Note:the half arms and half legs are not normally used for children. Pediatric patients almost always use full arm or leg XeroSox®.

Note: The opening of the Xerosox should be smaller than your arm or leg circumference

If your circumference falls between the X-Small Leg and the Small Leg, select the Small Half Leg

Fitting Instructions:

Slide on the XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover

Attach the open end of the pump to the outside valve. Stretch on the XeroSox ® Waterproof Cast Cover so that it completely covers the cast or bandage, and an additional inch (25mm) or more of bare skin. The top cuff should be smooth against the skin. Be aware that sharp fiberglass on a cast or a sharp fingernail can rip the XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover. Cover sharp objects with a bandage or a sock with the toe cut out.

Instructions Step 1

Pump out the Air

With the pump attached to the outside valve, repetitively squeeze the pump until it stays flat. Remove the pump and push on the safety cap. After creating the vacuum, observe the XeroSox ® Waterproof Cast Cover before going into the water. As long as the XeroSox ® Waterproof Cast Cover stays vacuumed (tightly wrinkled), it is sealed and completely watertight.

Instructions Step 2

Slide the XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover off

When you are finished using the XeroSox® Waterproof Cast Cover, lift up the cuff to let the air back in. The XeroSox ® Waterproof Cast Cover should now feel loose. Slide the XeroSox ® Waterproof Cast Cover off.

Instructions Step 3

Great product. Wore my leg cast cover on a boat, to the beach and in the shower.  Cast stayed dry and clean. The 'tread' on the bottom helps prevent slipping when the cover gets wet.  Very easy to use.  Probably good to keep in mind that the cover shouldn't be worn for more than 45 minutes or so since it definitely gets sweaty inside it.

I was skeptical at first, but this XeroSox was amazing.  My 11 son used one while we were at the beach.  The XeroSox held up to seven days of boogie boarding in the ocean!

This product is AWESOME!!  I bought this one to replace one I have had for 12 years that finally ripped at the edge and could not be salvaged.  I don't know why every orthopedic doc doesn't give out info on these every time they put a cast on someone!

I am a therapist and have used this product in a pool for a 4 hour period with no leakage.  25-40 bucks is a bargain for a REAL bath when you're stuck in a cast.

The product got a hole only after two uses.  I patched it and it is working out fine.  But, it was a disappointment because I am very careful with putting it on.

This product worked very well.  Would recommend to everyone.  It allowed our daughter to swim many times with her broken arm.  A little difficult to get on, but has to be to make sure it seals.  Found putting a long tube sock over the cast worked the best.

Worked very well in the shower. I don't know if I would trust it in a pool though...leaked a little when I moved my leg around too much one day. I may have needed a smaller size than I ordered though. Overall, great product! I would definitely order this again (although I hope I never have to!).

It was perfect as it totally covered my cast and let me take showers easily. And, because we were on or boat in the Bahamas, I could even go swimming with it.
