Prosthetic Socks & Sheaths
This section lists the Knit-Rite family of prosthetic socks and sheaths. Because the textile interface is a vital component of the prosthetic device system, no one sock can meet all the needs of wearers of prosthetic devices.
Our carefully designed interfaces vary in knit construction, sizing, weight, fiber content, and special features to provide the ultimate selection of textile interfaces.
Selection of the proper sock(s) contributes significantly to the comfort, function and mobility of the individual, and the performance of the device. You may find that different members of the Knit-Rite sock family fulfill different needs as individuals change jobs, hobbies, age, gain or lose weight.
