Knit-Rite, the company that developed the Torso-Interface
and introduced it to the orthotic profession in
1980, now offers a new, improved Torso-Interface
with seamless openings at the neck and arms.
Torso-Interface provides cushioning,
moisture-wicking, and antimicrobial properties
to keep skin dry, protected, healthy and comfortable.
It may also help prevent skin breakdown. The outstanding
stretch allows the fit to be virtually wrinkle-free
and is finished on all edges. All styles are latex
free and machine washable.

The Flex-Run™,
by Ossur, is a custom foot module for sprinting,
long distance running, and recreational sports.
A lightweight foot, it provides efficient energy
return, enabling the athlete to run further, and
longer. Its vertical compliance reduces trauma
to the residual limb, joints, and lower back,
thereby providing more comfort to the athlete.
The Flex-Run is made from 100
percent carbon fiber, a material used extensively
in the aerospace industry for its superior strength
and flexibility. For more information on
Ossur Flex-Run, and other Ossur products, visit

The
5-Bar Glide-Flex Polycentric Knee from Hosmer features
a rotary hydraulic control system; independent flexion
and extension adjustment; and adjustable stance flexion
stability. Made of high-strength aluminum alloy, it
can support 300 pounds, and comes with a one-year warranty.
The
secret to its strong, airtight fit is the inclusion
of a pin seal that seals off the socket. Two pins are
included with each lock for extra value. The Lamination
Lock also incorporates an attachment plate that, when
used in a two-step lamination process, allows for various
angle options to be used to optimize foot alignment.
No longer does the shuttle lock dictate alignment, which
helps ensure maximum amputee functionality and stability!
