Padded Foot Supports What are they? The Stealth Padded Foot Supports are designed to provide mild support to the lower leg while protecting against injuries from hard surfaces. The ergonomic contours conform to the foot and lower calf, with padded sections that shield against abrasions and pressure on bony areas. The uniquely designed upper section includes a heel cutout to eliminate contact with the heel, and a removable rigid inner support that provides ankle support while allowing clearance for the lateral malleoli. They come in three different styles: Single, Dual, Dual with Divider. The single is for users who need support on only one leg, require leg rests to swing away, or require leg rests to be in different elevations. The Dual style offers combined support for both legs in a single continuous unit. The Dual with Divider style also supports both legs in a single unit but includes a center divider for added protection and positioning. Each of these is available in a standard or tall height for varying lower leg lengths. Is there a trick to sizing? There is a very useful chart on the “technical” tab on the webpage for the padded foot supports. Rather than trying to memorize the sizing, simply use the chart. Check it out at this (safe) link: Stealth Positioning™ Padded Foot Support | Stealth Products, LLC. Why is the rigid inner support for the upper section removable? The upper support can be molded to help prevent undesirable contact during transfers. To do this, first remove the plastic support from the inside of the upper section. Using a heat gun, carefully apply heat until the material becomes malleable. Then, bend the material into the desired shape and hold it until it cools and retains the new form. The same principle applies when the support is causing excessive contact with the lateral malleoli. In this case, the support could also be trimmed
