What size cover should I get?
Dricast Waterproof covers are designed to cover casts or other injuries on arms and legs.
There are the following types and sizes to choose from:
- 4 adult leg sizes
- 3 adult arm sizes
- 4 child leg sizes
- 4 child arm sizes
- Hand Cover and Foot Cover (fit both adult and child)
To establish the cover required
Length:
- Arms - measure from the tip of the fingers to the end of the cast or body area to be covered (see example).
- Legs - measure from the base of the heel to the end of the cast or body area to be covered.
If there is a bend in the cast, measure from the fingertips around the outside of the bend to the end of your cast.
Circumference:
For all models, measure the thickest part of your cast (as pictured) and ensure that the cover will go around your cast or injury based on the measurement table below. This will be dependent on your body shape and size. If the circumference measurement of the cover is not greater than the thickest part of your cast, please select from the next sizes up.
Child Sizings:
An important aspect to note when choosing a child cover is that part of what determines the size of the child range is the opening that seals to the body above the cast.
If a child is around puberty age they could easily have adult length limbs, however depending on stage of development, may still have not yet developed "adult thickness" limbs yet.
If your child is around this age please choose appropriately and consider the adult sizes.
Choose from the measurements below. (The measurements below refer to the cast size. The covers are slightly bigger than these measurements).
