Hello,
Congratulations, your new site is much expanded and improved. I am curious to know if you wear any kind of stockings (e.g. support or compression/medical) under your leg-braces. I am sure you would look wonderful in such a garment. With thanks,
Spirella

Not usually, but in the past I have worn regular support pantyhose under my braces. From your name I gather you like the older style foundation garments. Aaah, the days of the long leg panty girdle. I used to love buying panty girdles that had garters and wear stockings. You can still get some long leg firm control briefs but I haven't seen garter tabs in years.

Hi, it is my first post. I'm 45 years old, and since i was I had to had two KAFO's, My leg got paralised after car accident. At first when I got my braces I try used pantyhose like before. But they was uncomfortably for me, and since a long time I wearing stockings under my braces. They are most often self support stockings, but sometime regular stockings with garter belt.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've worn pantyhose but I've on SCI sites that a lot of people find them annoying to wear post-accident. The Wheelchair Zone - The ultimate wheelchair site for ALL wheelchair users!
