Product Description
Designed for stability, comfort, and adjustability, the ORTONYX Progress II Adult Walking Forearm Crutches provide supportive mobility for everyday use. The pivoting closed-cuff design helps keep the crutches secure around the forearm for controlled movement, while the ergonomic handle encourages proper hand placement to reduce strain during longer walks. Each crutch weighs less than 1.15 lb (0.52 kg), so you get impressive strength without excess fatigue.
These crutches are height-adjustable from handle to floor 30–40 in (76.2–101.6 cm), making them suitable for a wide range of adult users. The forearm support length adjusts 8.5–11.5 in (21.6–29.2 cm) to dial in your fit. Tested up to a 330 lb (149.7 kg) user capacity and compliant with EN ISO 11199-1, they are built to support daily ambulation needs with dependable performance.
Real customers consistently call out key benefits: easier to use than traditional underarm crutches, lightweight and stable, and helpful for transitions—such as moving from a walker to crutches or between a walker and cane. Reviewers note strong, sturdy construction with smooth adjustability, and clinicians have asked where to source them after seeing the fit and function in real use. Some users at the lower end of the height range have mentioned that the cuffs can feel roomy; using a soft forearm sleeve or gentle padding may improve comfort. Another user mentioned cuff stiffness—proper height and forearm length adjustment, combined with a sleeve, can help reduce pressure on the forearm.
The anti-noise cup helps reduce distracting clicks during indoor use, while the aluminum frame maintains durability without unnecessary weight. The 28-degree support angle and 4 in (10.2 cm) handle length with 1.38 in (3.5 cm) diameter provide a balanced, ergonomic interface. Made in France, these crutches reflect thoughtful engineering for daily living, home rehabilitation, and clinic-to-home transitions.
Ideal for adults seeking a secure, supportive alternative to underarm crutches, the ORTONYX Progress II provides steady assistance for walking and weight offloading as advised by your healthcare professional. Whether you are navigating your home, heading to appointments, or rebuilding confidence after a procedure, these crutches help you move with greater control and comfort. The pair ships quickly so you can begin using them without delay, and our easy returns policy removes the stress from the selection process.
Please follow safe-use guidance: adjust height and forearm support before first use, load weight through the hands (not the forearm alone), inspect tips and clips before walking, and proceed cautiously on wet or uneven surfaces. For personalized setup, consult your clinician or therapist.

- Step through as directed by your clinician (partial or full weight bearing as advised).
- Walk on dry, even surfaces; avoid slippery floors and obstacles.
- Periodically inspect tips, clips, and cuffs; replace worn parts with compatible components.
