Portable Whole Leg Recovery Massage
So I had the opportunity to test out recovery with these boots via three different activities in the last couple of days (skiing, pickleball, and running). 1. Overall first impressions were favorable. The boots came packed cleanly and opening the box you realize just how portable these boots will be. There is a nice semi-cushioned bag that both boots fit into and opening up the front of the box gets you the charging cords and a quick instruction set is included also. The instructions tell you to take the Y splitter and connect to the charging plug, then connect each end of the split into the front of the boots. The charging ports were easy to find and I had them out of the box and charging in a couple minutes. 2. Pulling them out of the bag, you realize you definitely need someplace to recline so your legs can be straightened. I've used them on the bed and laying across the length of the couch with my back against the armrest and both methods worked well. The first thing you notice when you pull them on is that there's probably a little slack at the top where you don't zip them up all of the way. (I had about 2 inches left to fully zip). This works just fine as the inflation doesn't cause any issues with the non-zipped portion. 3. Usage was easy, just pick your time, pick your intensity and then press the button to let it go to work. I didn't get the opportunity to try the smartphone app as it appears this is coming, but the remotes on each boot worked perfectly fine. They seem to sync up as I started it on one leg and both legs began the process. The overall experience was a calming massage that felt like it resulted in a similar recovery via using the theragun but I was just able to sit there and breathe and relax. Plus it covered the entirety of the calves, thighs, and feet without having to adjust. So I tried it after each activity and knowing how legs usually feel after each activity the next day there was a marked improvement. Skiing I tend to use my calves a lot and the following day I generally would feel twinges climbing stairs, but I felt little discomfort after using the boots. Running I tend to feel the burn in different muscles groups and while I was still a little tender the next day, you could definitely tell a difference in how much faster the legs seemed to recover. Pickleball tends to pound my knees and ankles the most, so I couldn't say that this helped those areas albeit I will say my knees weren't twinging like they normally do so that may be a result of the increased blood flow after using these. Whichever way, I am now making these part of my day-to-day recovery efforts after any activity. The nice thing about them is that there's no hoses and both boots easily fold up and go back into the bag without any trouble. I was able to throw them into my check-in bag so some other people with us could use them and they were MOST appreciative. They've got some weight to them, but definitely worth taking up a little space in the bag.

Wireless. Lightweight. Effective Recovery.
As someone who runs almost daily and bikes at least one a week, my legs are often sore. Since incorporating these JetBoots into my recovery routine, I have notice a dramatic decrease in soreness. Plus, after a long day's work (in an office), these are a great way to relax. Overall quality of the JetBoots is fantastic. The fabric material is both flexible, comfortable, and easy to wipe down (which is super important). The boots as a whole seem reasonably lightweight. Charging cable itself can only charge one boot. It does come with a cable attachment which basically splits the cable into two so you can charge both boots at the same time, which is super convenient. There is a controller attached to each boot so you can use them together or individually. If you power on both boots, they will connect and you can use the controller on one boot to synchronize/operate both boots. The boot controller is simple to understand and easy to use. Available controls are power, timer, pressure, and start/pause. Lower levels of pressure don't seem to do much for me, but the 75 to 100 settings feel more appropriate. The boots come with an included storage/carrying bag. Once all the air has left the boots (after use), you can easily roll each boot up and store them in the bag. I'm confident that the more I use these, especially as the weather gets warmer out and my running/cycling distance increases, I will be using these boots more and more. If you've been considering compression boots, the Therabody RecoveryAir JetBoots is something to highly consider.

Good feeling on the legs
I purchased this as an open box item that had the rating of “Excellent” condition. Well when it arrived it had come wrapped in bubble wrap and in a generic box, which is fine, however the big issue was it was missing the charger to it. I have other Therabody products and figured I could use the chargers from them. None of them worked and it was difficult to find a replacement online even on their website.

A must have for RLS.
My wife has RLS and these boots works wonders for her.

Portable and wireless leg muscle recovery
The Therabody RecoveryAir Jetboots is a completely wireless pneumatic compression system for your legs that comes in three sizes (small, medium, and large) that you select based on your height. Since I’m 5’4” tall, I chose the small size and each boot of this size weighs a little over 4 lbs. These boots use overlapping air chambers that inflate sequentially using a negative gradient, starting at your feet and moving up your leg up to the top of your thighs, and massage your muscles in a manner that promotes blood flow which mimics your circulatory system, directing it from your farthest extremities back towards your heart. The boots unzip the full length of the leg sleeve down to the top of the feet, using a smooth gliding and easy-to-grasp, large zipper-pull, making it easy to get into and out of them. The boots come with a drawstring storage/carry pouch with divided compartments, and a compact 36W wall charger with a removable splitter that allows you to charge one or both boots simultaneously. This makes them quite easy to roll up and store or take with you on-the-go; if travelling by airplane, just keep in mind that they’ll take up a decent amount of space and weight capacity in a checked luggage. You can also use just one boot on its own, since they are identical and there isn’t a specific “left” or “right” boot, and this allows you to pack just one for travel and save space by using the same unit on both legs. Since the controllers have integrated Bluetooth, they pair to each other automatically when powered on and changing the settings on one boot automatically switches the other boot to matching settings. This eliminates the need for you to set them individually. The Bluetooth function will eventually also allow you to pair the boots to a smartphone to use with the Therabody app for remote control and selection of recovery or warm-up modes, however, at the time of this review’s writing, the app does not yet have this functionality, and it is expected to rollout later in the spring of 2022. What’s great about this compression system is that that are no cords, tubes, or wires hanging off of it, so you can use these almost anywhere. Each boot has its own integrated pump, battery, and 4-button controller and last up to 240 minutes on a full two-hour charge, though you can use them while they are charging, as well. However, you’ll want to use them on a bed or couch where you can comfortably stretch out your legs, as you won’t be able to use these in a seated position. There are four different pressure settings you can select in 25mmHg increments from 25-100 mmHg. You can also select how long the massage session should last in 20 minute increments from 20-60 mins or set it to run continuously until you stop the program. Each inflation cycle takes around 50-75 seconds to reach your target pressure setting, and the decompression interval between inflation cycles is about 15 seconds. I found that one of my boots consistently takes 8-10 seconds longer to reach full inflation than the other, regardless of settings or which leg that unit is used on. The other thing to note is that the pumps do make some noise while operating, though I didn’t find that it was overwhelmingly loud when watching TV. It’s a droning buzz that’s actually somewhat soothing in a meditative way. For me, I like to use the boots at 75 or 100 mmHg pressures as I find the 25 and 50 mmHg settings a bit too soft, and I generally use them in the evenings for 40 minutes before bed. At the maximum setting, the squeeze is tight enough that I can feel the blood pumping through my femoral artery, which is intense, but not painful. I feel that using the boots helps relax my sore leg muscles after training sessions, athletic activity, or even just a typical day from being on my feet for hours. The pressure and movement of the blood speeds recovery by flushing the metabolic waste from tired muscles, the same way traditional massages do. I’ve found that I have less soreness and muscle tightness the next day after using the boots compared with not having done any type of muscle recovery following vigorous physical activity. The materials used in this boot are non-porous and medical grade, designed without any seams or overlapping fabric, to deter bacterial growth to prevent moisture and odor build-up. They should be cleaned and dried between uses by gently wiping down the inside with a disinfectant spray or wipe, then cloth dried or hung up using the loop at the top of each boot. Overall, the Jet Boots are an effective ultra-compact, portable pneumatic compression system designed to target your legs for muscle recovery and warm-up, and the only minor drawback is that they’re not as customizable as, nor compatible with, Therabody’s other RecoveryAir compression garments. However, they’re optimized for travel and are easy to use, clean, and pack away.

ACL Rehab Game Changer!
I tore my meniscus, ruptured my ACL and damaged my cartilage on my right knee and tore the hamstring on the left through a myriad of injuries in 2022. Finishing the year with surgery on 12/20/22. So what can you do help improve rehab and recovery? Purchase these compression boots. They have been a game changer in reducing pain and inflammation. After a PT session or several hours of sitting at my desk, these have been incredibly in helping recovery. Batteries lasts a few hours and recharges relatively quickly. Using them every day sometimes multiple times. FYI, connecting to the Bluetooth allows you adjust the preference settings and adjusts the hold time of the compression to 10 seconds when fully inflated. Makes a big difference vs. the default 5 seconds given. I am 5’11, 225 lb and the mediums fit perfectly.

Get A Pair
I’m an athletic person, focusing mostly on running, cycling, yoga and intense walks. Last year I suffered an injury that affected most of my right side. I haven’t been able to run and cycle as much as I would like as I’m still in recovery and therapy. These boots are Godsend for me right now. I use these before I do anything and my legs can feel a difference. I get a lot of stiffness and soreness in my joints and muscles and this has helped in the short time of use to alleviate the pain between my therapy and chiropractic visits. My right leg doesn’t feel as tired as it normally does just doing every day activities when I implement the boots first thing in the morning. I use them a minimum of two times a day. From the initial setup which took me less than a minute to do both booths were linked and ready for use. It was terribly fast. The digital display is clear and easy to read. Minimal buttons to control. Not many customization options but I don’t think that the options that are provided are lacking. I don’t need to control everything down to the minute. Having presets works great and it has a continuous mode so I can customize my time beyond 60 mins or anywhere in between the other preset times. I think the preset pressure options are great as well. I find 75mmHG to be my max and it feels great. I’ve fallen asleep with the boots on during several sessions. That’s how comfortable and relaxing the gentle pressure and massage feels. I’m 5’8”, my spouse is 5’11” and the medium fits both of us great. However, my mom who visits frequently, could use this as well, is 5’6” and the boots reaches her a few inches past her bottom so we are unable to fit her as they will not zip up securely beyond her thighs. The size chart state it should fit her height. Maybe if your legs aren’t as long it doesn’t provide a great fit. So make sure you are paying attention to the height requirements based on size, as it’s important and if you’re on the lower/min end of the height requirement go down a size. They seem to be almost too big but once the cycle starts to compress, you quickly realize the fit is perfect. They are roomy and I don’t even have to zip them down as I can easily slide each foot in them and securely. So far I have used them on the couch with no problems. I find it best to be sitting in an upright position with legs extended straight out and not bent. The best feature of these boots… they are completely wireless. The only time a wire of sorts is introduced is to charge them. You can charge and use them independently of each other. Which is great if need be. I can control each boot from the digital component that’s located directly on the boot at the upper thigh area. One boot can control the other at the same time because they can connect to one another via Bluetooth. I love the ability to customize each leg independently and decide how much pressure is good enough for me. The packaging also states that their will be an app coming soon. I’m hoping the app brings more features to these wireless boots. Although I don’t see using the app as much since the controls are literally at my fingertips, and if it doesn’t bring or offer much more to the table. These are designed so well. They even come with a carrying bag for on the go. The bag could have been a bit sturdier or even easier to travel with, but I’m so glad that I have these and can take them every where. They are easy to roll up and store. If the price point isn’t an issue, I highly recommend getting these. The portability, ease of use, and pain relief capabilities is enough for me.
