Hip disarticulation & hemipelvectomy re-defined
Instead of encapsulating the entire pelvis with a thick bulky bucket, our patented, lightweight Bikini Socket™ and ultra-conforming Iliac Crest Stabilizers™ provide a more direct biomechanical link between the prosthesis and its user; resulting in superior stability, comfort, and quality of life for all activity levels.
The end of rigid sockets
The unique conformability of the Socket-less Socket™ technology radically changes comfort and quality of life for those who are fit with it. Medicare, insurance, and VA approved – and it costs the exact same as an antiquated rigid socket. Don’t settle for the same status quo.
Cool and breathable
Hot sweaty encapsulated sockets and socks are things of the past. The unique open socket design dissipates heat and keeps the limb cool, which eliminates sweating issues for most users.
The Socket-less Socket™ Transforms Quality Of Life
Our clinical research team collects data across our entire patient panel to measure the quality of life impacts of our Socket-less Socket™ technology, and the results are transformative.

Self-adjustable fit
Shoes have laces. Shirts have buttons. Belts have buckles. Our clothes are adjustable – Shouldn’t your socket be adjustable too? Our uniquely adjustable and conforming socket design gives you full control to dynamically capture the limb shape in real-time, and makes the socket feel like a part of you. The Iliac Crest Stabilizers™ are so conforming that you could fold them up in your hand. Now you can maintain that 7am fit all day, without adding socks. If you’re the kind of person who wants full control of how your socket fits, this technology is for you.
Increased quality of life through comfort
As comfortable as a socket should be – sitting or standing. No more impinging of the socket into your abdomen or rib cage during sitting, or sitting on a bulky hump of plastic. Sitting with a prosthetic and even bending forward to tie your shoes is now so comfortable you’ll forget you are wearing it.
Ridiculously light
Hot sweaty encapsulated sockets are things of the past. The unique open socket design dissipates heat and keeps the limb cool, which eliminates sweating issues for most users. Our NASA-Inspired lightweight design and materials are only a fraction of what conventional sockets weight – with a typical weight reduction of several pounds. At 1/3 the size and 1/3 the weight of conventional bucket sockets, you’ll be amazed at how light a socket can feel.
Interview with a Bikini Socket™ user.
Greater comfort, control, and functional outcomes than you imagined possible.
The biggest advancement in hip sockets, since the bikini socket™.
In our continued evolution of great socket designs, we’ve improved the best hip socket design around. The Hammock Casting Stand™ captures high resolution anatomical contouring through integrating a fabric hammock mesh in the casting process, giving equal weight distribution throughout the entire socket, and eliminating point specific ischial loading. The Bikini Socket™ is therefore as comfortable as sitting in a hammock. The casting shape becomes the final socket shape. It’s that simple.
