Letter from 
These Socks Were Made for Walkin'
By Virginia Redmond
We are pleased to announce that Wright & Filippis will be able to provide Jobst Sensifoot Diabetic Socks to its customers. Sensifoot Diabetic Socks are designed to provide comfort and protection for individuals with diabetes.
An estimated 20.8 million people in the United States have diabetes; about 60%–70% of those people have mild to severe nerve damage. Nerve damage is the major cause of foot problems in diabetics, as it inhibits pain allowing some foot injuries to go undetected, which can lead to infection and amputation.
Most people with diabetes can avoid serous foot problems by taking care of their feet and following a simple care routine. Diabetic socks can also help play a role in foot problems. The Sensifoot socks are designed with a flat, low profile toe seam to reduce irritation and pressure on the toes. The acrylic padding reduces friction and provides cushioning for comfort. The acrylic yarn wicks away moisture to keep feet cool and dry.
If you have questions, please call the Wright & Filippis Central Supply office at (800) 343-4944. Our customer service representatives will be happy to answer all of your questions.
