Silipos Silosheath Gel Prosthetic Sheath offers improved durability
because the gel is now bonded to a long-lasting fabric that is
washable, reusable and resists delamination. In addition, sheath
stretch has been improved for superior fit and the new flat, form-fitting
seam is well-suited for diabetics and amputees with sensitive skin.

expandable nylon prosthetic sheath for below and above
knee amputees. Laminated with a patented tri-block

Nearly 90% of the amputees who use stump socks and sheaths can be
correctly fitted with a stock size sock because the knitted construction
has a stretch which allows a fitting range. Nevertheless, some
measurement guidelines can be helpful.
 | Measure your limb circumference at the "top" of the socket | |
| Measure the "toe" limb circumference 2 inches up from the bottom | |
| end |
Use the table below to determine the correct
silosheath for your limb.
Measure your stump at
the very top of your
prosthesis
Measure 2" up from the
