I know that my walking boot will extend to just under my knee. How does this affect comfort on this seat?

The knee cushion on this was very hard. My mom made me a really thick cushion that was covered in fleece and attached underneath with elastic. Think the old dish covers that snugged over the dish with elastic. It was a lifesaver! My knee was very sore even with the cushion. Find someone who sews to make something before you need it. I would recommend several layers of cushion as opposed to one thick piece of foam. I hope you heal up quickly!

There is no problem at all with the knee on the seat in a walking boot or a hard castl. It's comfortable and made specific for this in mind.

I asked my daughter, the one who used the scooter, and she said it's just a matter of placement. She found that if she positioned her knee so that the top edge of the boot landed in the space between cushions with her upper knee (where the greater portion of weight is carried) on the forward cushion then it was fairly comfortable. Hope that helps - and I hope you have a quick recovery!

Depends on your boot. Mine had a pump and the knob was right where I put my knee on the seat. It wasn't uncomfortable but I did have to move my knee around at times. Without the knob it would have been completely comfortable but with the knob for the pump it was fairly comfortable.

I secure it around a back pad and it doubles the back padding while staying in place on the bottom. Don't expect cushy comfort for all day. When I go out for 4 hours, I am comfortable. Longer than that and I just don't think my body is built to stay in one position for that long.

It is several inches thick so either you need to lower your seat height (some vehicles with power seats) or your headroom will decrease :-) Also you need to adjust to keep centered on the cushion. No great, but better than leg cramps!

The only adjustment is the length of the footrest from knee to bottom of the foot. They do not elevate.

I have large, and wear 9 1/2 shoes. There is at least 1 1/2 " from my foot to the end of the boot, and it's neoprene, so there is some stretch, too.

I dont have it with me now to measure but with the walking boot that I wear, it was almost equal heights. Hope that helps till I can measure it exactly It does make you feel even with the boot on. I didn t feel the hip pains with it

no, you can fully extend the leg, do not worry about it. Worry more that does not fit tight

No, not really, since you got a knee protector that goes higher then the knee cap, and just walking around with them will make it uncomfortable. those knee shin pads protector are made for cycling and motorbike riding since you have your legs bent and the knee shin pads protector will fit perfectly over your knee cap whille protecting the higher part of your knee cap. i use those knee shin protector while riding my electric mountain bike going up to 60 km/h in the trails and since i've had them, they protected my knees and shins quite well after those wipe outs. hope those info helped you.

I don't know if this will help for sure, but I actually had trouble using it because I have shorter legs! Your feet might hang off the end, but you almost certainly won't have a problem in the bum-to-knee area, because that's the part that I had issues with since I have shorter or more average-length thighs.

Absolutely. Your foot isn't going any where when it's in this boot. You may need to get used to the feel of it during the night, but otherwise it works great.

Not really. You would have to attach this so it sits above your work boots! That is not a bad thing! I have it where it sits above my motorcycle riding boots and I like it a lot! The boot keeps it in place though it is a little harder to get to when wearing jeans.

Does not seem uneven to me. There is a rocking type motion that comes with walking with the boot on. It may feel unusual at first, but I quickly adjusted to the rocking motion.

I have not had occasion to adjust the foot rest. I haven't found a mechanism for adjusting the length.

Agree with previous answers. It has not affecting any of my boots, but not sure of distressed boots. Go to Bicks site and ask them. They are good about answering questions.

No, it does not. It does extend good enough for me, even though I have my seat up forward more than most.

I have worn it above lace up tactical boots that go about two inchs above the ankle with no problem. If the boot tops went much higher than that I don't think they would reach around the calf.

It's just the way the chair is made. I had to return mine for this reason. I have a bad knee and this chair pitched me out several times while I was trying to push the leg rest back down. Terrible design.
