Background
This is how the inception of the Sstep began. A simple, yet powerful observation: many individuals with drop foot struggled daily with bulky braces that didn't fit well in their shoes, limited their mobility, didn’t function without shoes at home, and often left them feeling frustrated and self-conscious and feeling unsafe walking. Our team, driven by a passion for improving lives, set out to create a solution that was not only effective but also comfortable and discreet.
After extensive research, development, and collaboration with medical professionals, the Sstep sock was born. This product features an embedded cable system that lifts the foot, preventing it from catching and reducing the risk of falls. The design is low-profile, allowing it to fit comfortably in any shoe, ensuring users can move freely and confidently. One of the standout features of Sstep is its ability to provide support even when you’re not wearing shoes, therefore allowing people the freedom to walk around their house barefoot.
The Sstep sock works by combining advanced material technology with a functional design that integrates supportive elements directly into the fabric. These embedded features provide gentle but effective assistance in lifting the foot, ensuring a smoother and more secure gait. The product is designed for easy use, fitting seamlessly into the user’s daily routine without the need for bulky or complicated devices.
