ALPS Extreme™ Sleeve
PART # SFK
ALPS Extreme Sleeve is produced with a limited vertical stretch fabric that maintains a high horizontal elongation to provide the user with easy knee flexion and elevated control.
The Grip Gel adheres to the patient’s skin without creating shear force and helps prevent the sleeve from rolling down the residual limb.
KEY BENEFITS
Minimizes compression and irritation proximally.
Provides a secure suspension of the prosthetic leg.
The fabric's limited vertical stretch improves control of the prosthetic leg and allows for ease of knee flexion.
