Poolside and changing room walking is where an unshod prosthetic sole meets the most slippery surfaces a user encounters.
Showering and bathroom use is supported by a foot that tolerates water and a sole finished for wet floors.
Beach and sea use is served by a tread that grips over sand on hard ground, subject to the permitted exposure stated by the manufacturer.
Open footwear including sandals and flip-flops is noted by the manufacturer for this range, since the sole's own finish carries the grip.
Users who would otherwise need a separate limb for water may be served by a single foot, where the prescribing prosthetist judges that appropriate.
Clinics fitting for wet environments need permitted exposure and the drying procedure established, since these govern how the foot is used.
Services ordering stock need the reference family clarified, since three codes carry three different published size ranges.
