Get Ready for the Fourth of July!
Celebrate the Fourth of July in style with this new SleeveArt® style, “Fourth of July.” This new style is available either as a prosthetic cover or as a laminating sleeve. SleeveArt laminating sleeves can be used by your prosthetist to easily create a permanent, unique and interesting design on your socket.
SleeveArt prosthetic sleeve covers are made from spandex. They are easily removable and machine washable and are reasonably priced at $30. They are available in more than 50 styles including some skin tones, three different lengths and five different sizes, from XS to XXL. Our sleeve covers are slippery and will help your long pants to slide easily over the prosthesis.
So, get ready to celebrate the birthday of our country with this patriotic style, “Fourth of July.”
Please visit our store at www.fredslegs.com. If you would like a flyer mailed to you, call Joanne at 954/646-1026.

Attention All Upper-Extremity Prosthesis Wearers!
Introducing the Sure-Lok™: The world’s first infinitely adjustable cable lock and retainer system for body-powered prostheses.
This revolutionary technology mounts right on your voluntary opening (VO) or voluntary closing (VC) prosthesis. VO users can now lock their cable to avoid damaging objects, and VC users no longer have to maintain cable tension to retain their grasp.
Many current VO wearers may want to switch to VC control, which offers tremendous grip strength and more physiologically natural action. Tools like pliers and scissors utilize a voluntary closing action. With the Sure-Lok™ engaged, it’s possible for most individuals to maintain much greater pinch forces than with a typical VO setup, all while relaxing with the object securely under control. Simply disengage to release.
Ask your prosthetist about the Sure-Lok™ today or call TRS at 800/279-1865 or visit www.oandp.com/trs for more info.
