5.2.6 Replacing the Straps and Pads

Straps:
► The straps are equipped with opposing hook-and-loop closures and are easy to replace.
Strap and frame pads:
► The strap and frame pads are attached with hook-and-loop closures and are easy to replace.

5.2.7 Use of undergarments and covers

Optional undergarments and covers are available for the orthosis. An undergarment is used as a
layer between the orthosis and the skin, therefore protecting against skin damage. A cover is
pulled over the orthosis, protecting it against damage. This also reduces the risk of injury in
sports with the possibility of massive body contact (e.g. collisions).
The following products can be used with the orthosis (the size is specified in the reference num­
ber):
