Colleagues,
 
Mr. Carlisle's prompted this message.  Like everyone else, I have legs needing replacement liners in the OWW profile.  Perhaps we could keep a list of available retrofit alternatives and post it somewhere for easier access.

For what it's worth, I found out that Ossur just released the Iceross Dermo Uniform liners, which apparently is a retrofit for the OWW Uniform Gel liner.  Six sizes offered that we are familiar with, small, medium, medium +, etc.  So, the uniform profile is covered.  Locking and cushion offered. 

I did talk to an engineer at OWW and they seemed confident that things would be back to normal at some point in 2014.

Best regards,
Charles King, CP
