They'll be happier (and prouder)

The brace is the one thing they never got to choose. The sock is, and suddenly friends ask about the socks, not the brace.

  • For themBeing the kid with the cool socks, not the kid with the brace.
  • For youSeeing them show their legs off instead of hiding them.

"My grandson was so happy to have COOL SOCKS like all the other kids."

It won't hurt them

Most brace discomfort starts with the sock. Lairos takes away each cause:

  • Rubbing & blistersNo loose threads inside, minimal flat seams.
  • Red marksA soft cuff, no tight band at the knee.
  • FrictionAnatomical heel, so nothing bunches under the plastic.
  • Sweat90% breathable cotton, not a thick synthetic.

"…he loved how these socks didn't leave a mark or make his leg feel 'tight'."

Questions families ask

Do they work with AFOs, SMOs and KAFOs?

Yes. They're knee-high, so they sit above the brace and keep plastic and straps off the skin.

Do they have seams?

A few minimal flat seams, including one at the toe, and no loose threads inside. Sensory concerns? Email support@lairos.com.

Why do they have a heel? Tube socks don't.

A tube sock can twist and bunch under the brace. The heel keeps the sock in place all day.

Which size should I pick?

Go by their usual shoe size. Between sizes? Choose the smaller one. Not sure? Email support@lairos.com.
