The WillowWood One Gel Sock is a specialized prosthetic component, often included with Alpha Duo Liners, that stabilizes soft tissue, acts as an “air wick” for vacuum suspension systems, protects the liner, and helps create a secure, comfortable, airtight fit for below-knee (transtibial) amputees. Applied over the liner (silicone side out), it’s crucial for the performance of WillowWood’s One System, reducing pistoning and sweat while offering consistent suspension without frequent adjustments. Tissue Stabilization: Compresses and manages soft tissue on the residual limb. Airwicking: Creates a pathway for air to escape, crucial for vacuum systems. Liner Protection: Shields the liner’s surface, especially the fabric-free satin finish of the Alpha Duo. Enhanced Suspension: Works with liners and sleeves to form an airtight seal for suction or elevated vacuum systems.
