Knit-Rite Soft Sock with New 3D Toe Shape

Knit-Rite's original Soft Sock® has a new, patented, hemispherically knit three-dimensional distal shape. The new distal shape provides improved fit and comfort versus the traditional flat knit, envelope shape of prosthetic socks. Soft Socks are available in X-Static®-the Silver Fiber®-or original CoolMax®; both are moisture-wicking fibers that move moisture away from skin and inhibit sock odor. Soft Socks feel soft and cuddly worn next to the skin and even insulate against the cold. Lycra provides stretch and excellent fitting qualities.

The pyramidal connector and malleolar clip are included.

Benefits include:

• Comfort.
• Lightweight-30% lighter than the S.A.C.H. foot.
• Easy step completion.

HOPE Orthopedic’s NINJA Raises the Bar

Mechanical advantage with no strings attached!

The innovative NINJA is a 6X mechanical-advantage orthosis, like a string brace, but using straps, not strings. The straps are more durable; they won't fray, tear, tangle, or wedge.

The NINJA belt is the foundation of each brace (L-0627, L-0631, and L-0637) in the NINJA Progressive Spinal System. It has a soft mesh inside and an aggressive loop outside. The one-pull strap is easy to tighten and fasten. The NINJA PRO is pictured.
