I have had two patients come into our office in the last few weeks with
these flesh colored PLS AFOs. They are all about 20 years old and appear to
be made out of some non-fatiguing plastic that is very flexible but does not
crack over time. It could be TPE but I'm not sure. If anyone has an idea
if this plastic is still available or at least what it is I would appreciate
it.
The link to the picture of the AFO is below.
