MOLDABLE SUPPORT

PATENTED #6,733,074

Moldable Support
A moldable center section allows precise contours for any spinal curvature. This offers increased support and comfort to accommodate lumbar, scoliosis, and kyphosis.
inner top zipper allows stays to be removed, molded and replaced without having to remove the foam & cover from the backrest. All can be done while the user is seated.
Moldable aluminum stays are offset from the center, removing pressure points from the spine and allowing for more aggressive molding to either side offering additional support.
REFLECTIVE PIPING

BE SEEN, BE SAFE

Reflective piping returns a large portion of light directly back to the source it came from, allowing it to be seen from up to 500 feet away in low light conditions.
