SoftSkin Air AK, Locking Liner

Safety, Comfort and Activity.

Safety is the nuts and bolts of leg amputees - the prosthesis must be able to adhere to the leg reliably while being comfortable and avoiding pressure points. The connection between the stump and the prosthesis is provided by liners, a type of stocking that is pulled over the stump. The SoftSkin Air developed by Uniprox GmbH & Co. KG is the world's first breathable silicone liner. Special micro pores drain perspiration and moisture from the stump, so that skin irritations, moisture accumulation and unwanted slipping out can be avoided.
