I fabricate the odd CROW boot.typically use thermofoam (aliplast 4E / Volara
4E) to line the boot, and on occasion use PPT/Poron in pressure areas.

 

I have one patient that sweats more than I have ever seen, and the PPT acts
as sponge, soaks up the sweat and never dries out overnight.

 

Other options for lining a boot like this? Something that will repel the
moisture, other than the Aliplast?

 

Just looking for your ideas.

 

Thanks
