Description
The right sock makes a big difference to comfort under an orthosis. SmartKnit AFO socks are seamless and wrinkle-free, fitting like a second layer of skin under ankle foot orthoses (AFOs), knee ankle foot orthoses (KAFOs) and supramalleolar orthoses (SMOs).
Why wear AFO socks?
Seams and wrinkles in ordinary socks can rub or cause pressure points under an orthosis. SmartKnit socks are knitted in one continuous piece from the toe up, so there are no seams to irritate the skin.
