Transfemoral and knee disarticulation Transformed
We’ve re-invented sockets from the ground up. No more static socket shape. No more hard ischial seat. No more loss of suction. The Socket-less Socket™ truly conforms to the user, providing a custom-fit socket every time you put it on.
Limit-less Configurations
The above knee Socket-less Socket™ is now available in 3 configuration options – SwingBrim™, cX-Hybrid™, and cX™. Connect with us for a free consultation on which socket configuration is right for you.

As conforming as a hammock.
Our patent pending SwingBrim™ technology perfectly conforms to the user just like a hammock, providing a soft floating cushioned seat on every step. It’s the difference between sitting on a hard chair versus into a soft hammock.
Ridiculously light.
Now 40% lighter than the original Socket-less Socket™. Our NASA-inspired lightweight design and materials are only a fraction of what conventional sockets weigh - with a typical weight reduction of over 2 pounds. You’ll be amazed at how light a socket can feel.
Solid as a rock.
Exceptional stability and limb control, yet conforming and comfortable. The floating Femoral Lock Pad dynamically captures the limb to provide a socket that feels like a part of you.
Micro-adjustable comfort, every morning.
Conventional prosthetics are static in shape, and require frequent fitting adjustments to match the ever-changing human body. Our technology fits differently. We enable you to micro-adjust for a comfortable fit every time you put your prosthesis on. If you’re the kind of person who wants full control of how your socket fits, this technology is for you.
A paradigm shift in how prosthetics are fit.
Socket-Soft™ converts simple limb measurements to a pre-fit socket, making the fitting process faster and more efficient. The practitioner simply micro-adjusts the pre-fit socket on the user for a perfect customized fit. Launch Socket-Soft™ to explore the full Socket-less Socket™ training.

The end of rigid brims.
The new SwingBrim™ technology replaces existing rigid brims with a dynamic brim shape that eliminates point specific ischial loading.
Comfortable as a brim should be.
The human body is dynamic - the socket should also be dynamic. The SwingBrim™ hammock-fit technology conforms to the body, instead of the body having to conform to a static brim.
No more hump in sitting.
Traditional sockets are rigid and result in the user sitting on a bulky hump of plastic. The SwingBrim™ is so thin and flexible you likely wont notice its there.
Take control of your brim comfort.
The conforming SwingBrim™ adjusts to your body shape for daily comfort. We understand that your body changes - now your brim can too.

The cX-Hybrid™ socket configuration offers the same dynamic brim comfort as the full Socket-less Socket™ cX™, but can be retro-fit into most conventional AK sockets through simple trim line modifications. Its the difference between sitting on a hard chair versus into a soft hammock.

What our ICONS are saying
I can’t believe how comfortable this socket is. My ischial seat has always been so uncomfortable, and now it is the most comfortable part of the socket.
David BanksAK Amputee - Phoenix AZ, USA
I was so excited to bring home my new socket today! The difference in every aspect (sitting, standing, walking) is astounding. Thank you!!!!
Lisa KingAK Amputee - Paw Paw MI, USA
My wife has been wearing a leg for 30+ years. This is the first leg that has fit…from day one to today. She hasn’t complained once. Usually she hates her leg days after getting it because it doesn’t fit due to volume changes. This socket fits every morning. Every single time. She can adjust it throughout the day as needed. It never is too big or too small. It’s perfect every time. Congrats Martin Bionics, you just changed prosthetics.
Craig & Valerie Wallace AK Amputee - Rockford MI, USA
I had bilateral knee disarticulation performed in 1961……I have experienced everything offered in terms of AK sockets. I stand here in Martin Bionics Socket-less Sockets and I have never been so comfortable. My ischium is back on an ischial seat…..its fabric and flexible. It gives with me and gives me the support I need. Its seems like an impossible dream come true. Its conforming to my body while supporting me. Its amazing to me that I can have that kind of comfort. What I’m wearing is something I couldn’t of dreamed of.
Tom AllredBi Lateral Knee Disartculate - Utah, USA
I like the adjustability. It provides more freedom. The coolness of the socket is also a huge factor because its open. It allows more freedom. I usually go through multiple different fittings. This was much more condensed all in one.
Erik BowenBi-lateral Symes Amputee - Colorado, USA
Im a cyclist, runner, and triathlete and for the first time in 5 years as I’m riding every single pedal stroke I feel connected to my bike. I can feel every muscle working, I can feel the power going through each pedal, I can also lace up my running shoes and go for a run and feel the earth beneath me…..and you know what…It makes me feel free. It makes me feel alive. It makes me feel like Im actually a complete human being.
Jordan LeaBK - Vancouver, Canada
When I first stood up and put on the ICON BK it was instant comfort….I felt well accommodated and conformed to and comfortable. I felt a unique sensation that I never felt before in my traditional socket. I actually feel that when I’m walking the muscles in my residual limb are trying to perform the way they used to. Its a unique feeling and I’m loving it!
