Sheep Wool Leg Pads, Medical/Therapeutic Purpose

Silly mistake lets these down

I was excited to find these leg pads. I’m a double leg amputee and my stumps get very cold at night, and I can’t wear pyjama bottoms or trousers. I only ever wear natural fabrics because I need my body to ‘breathe’. But to my disappointment when these arrived, the manufacturers have attached the thinnest layer of wool to *acrylic* backing. Why on earth would someone pay a lot of money for a pure, natural substance like wool, only to find that the thinnest possible layer has been used and it has been stuck to a cheap synthetic material that feels abrasive and is completely unbreathable? It’s like buying a woollen jumper and finding that it is lined with plastic. They are not warm because the layer of wool is so thin and they feel hard and abrasive on the outside. People who go to the trouble and expense of buying sheepskin or real wool, as this is advertised as being, do not want to find that the majority of the article they have been told is natural wool is actually a coarse, harsh piece of synthetic material.

Ma first resisted slippers as it was a new thing. A couple days went by and she LOVES them. Easy entry for swollen feet. We got the men’s size as I bit wider. Never looking back again to cold feet.
