The slippery outer cover allows the foot to move around slightly and the product stays on the foot.

Another feature is some extra foam under the Hook & Loop Tape strap to try to stop the strap from touching the top of the foot. On many feet, the foam can overlap before doing up the Hook & Loop Tape, or if the patient has swollen feet and the Hook & Loop Tape is near the top of the foot, some disposable wadding can be placed under the Hook & Loop Tape.

Cleaning: Wash up to 80°C (176°F). Air or tumble dry on a cool setting, ensuring the drum is cool. Ensure the product is dry before using or storing.
