Leg length discrepancy corrective sock

Abstract

The present invention provides a leg length discrepancy corrective sock, which has an elastic strip attached within a sock. A holding space formed between a sock body and a sock sole of the sock and the elastic strip provides for disposing a filler therein, and height of the filler achieves the objective of correcting the difference in length of the lower limbs of the leg length discrepancy sufferer. Hence, equalizing the difference in length of the lower limbs is easily achieved by wearing the leg length discrepancy corrective sock of appropriate thickness.

1 . A leg length discrepancy corrective sock comprising a sock, an elastic strip and a filler; 
 wherein the sock comprises a sock body and a sock sole;    and characterized in that the elastic strip having good soft and elastic properties is attached to the sock body and the sock sole within the sock, thereby forming a holding space having an opening; the filler is inserted into the opening and disposed within the holding space, thereby elevating the elastic strip above the sock sole to accord with the difference in length of the lower limbs of the leg length discrepancy sufferer, achieving a corrective effect that equalizes the difference in length of the lower limbs.    
   
   
       2 . A leg length discrepancy corrective sock as described in  claim 1 , wherein the filler is soft material, and the soft filler holds air, liquid or related filler fluids; the filler is further fitted as a fixed volume with an adjustable inner filler material that transforms the volume.  
   
   
       3 . A leg length discrepancy corrective sock as described in  claim 1 , wherein the attachment method used to attach the elastic strip between the sock body and the sock sole is by stitching, gluing or associated art related to mutual joining together of materials.  
   
   
       4 . A leg length discrepancy corrective sock as described in  claim 1 , wherein the elastic strip is further fabricated from elastic nylon fabric, cotton woven fabric, knitted fabric, sponge, rubber and related elastic materials.  
   
   
       5 . A leg length discrepancy corrective sock as described in  claim 1 , wherein the sock is further formed as a recreational sock, five-toed sock, panty hose, a bubble sock, a sports sock, a long sock, a short sock, a silk sock, an ankle sock or any other related sock worn on the foot.
