Shear Comfort Heel Protectors

Shear Comfort Heel Protectors shield the skin on the heels and ankles in this at-risk area, and provide protection for existing damaged skin.
The wool layer wraps around the heel and ankle, leaving the rest of the foot free to move. Seams are positioned on the exterior of the protector to relieve the skin from areas of high pressure.
Velcro straps give plenty of room for adjustment. One size fits all.
Fabric-backed medical sheep's wool, unique to Shear Comfort
XD1900 is medical sheep's wool unique to Shear Comfort, with a fibre density higher than even the very best natural sheepskins - which gives it superior pressure redistribution properties.
This is achieved by weaving natural wool to a fabric backing, and is not to be confused with artificial sheepskins created from synthetic ‘wool.’ We use natural wool, and treat it to ensure it can be repeatedly washed up to 80°C. Plus, because XD1900 has no leather backing, it can be washed with normal household detergent.
All Shear Comfort products are machine washable, and guaranteed against deterioration for up to 50 washes.
Heel Protectors are sold in pairs.
