Adjustable Heel Lift with varus or valgus heel wedge
*Three removable 3 mm (1/8 inch) rubber cork layers.

*1/2 of the bottom layer can be peeled for varus or valgus correction.
Helps prevent pronation of the Subtalar Joint of the short limb.
Most short limbs will have an inverted calcaneus, our heel lift brings the ground to the foot.
