 1.1 Softy liner
- Ideal for the Positioning/Limited Ambulation patient group. Also works for active ambulators.

 1.2 PPT padding
- Best padding for active ambulators with navicular pressure or other vulnerable weight-bearing spots.
- Does not bottom out over time.
- Can be added to any custom DAFO design.
- Select the “Add extra navicular padding” option in the Inner Liner or Padding section of order form. To request extra PPT padding at locations other than the navicular, indicate so in the Special Instructions section.
