摘要 |
The invention utilizes a semi-rigid endoskeleton foot support encased inside an elastomeric sock. The endoskeleton controls the hind foot as well as supporting the medial longitudinal arch, extending over the malleoli if extra support is needed for additional biomechanical control, while allowing the fore, lateral, and rear plantar surface of the foot indirect contact with the ground through the sock. The elastomeric sock provides circumferential compression, while simultaneously securing the endoskeleton intimately to the wearer's foot.
