Hi Jeremy!!  I predict that you will be barraged with answers.  I would like
to be in on this, too......if it is appropriate for my AK prosthesis.  I have
long thought of contriving such a cover, but just for the lower part - forget
about the portions above the knee joint.  My purpose is not cosmesis but
rather to have a more pleasing way to have the shoe appear on the
prosthesis.  As it is I wear a sock over the foot shell and it just sort of
collapses around the pylon....and of course I'm limited to oxford type
sneakers.  A lower leg cover would allow me to wear those really neat Chuck
Taylor high-top Converse sneaks again, and they are MY first choice for
classic classy footwear.  Let us hear what you have.  George B.
