Slim Stylish Casts

The Tattooed Foot Brace Looks Like a Gladiator Sandal

Clunky casts for broken legs can be a real bummer, especially for the uncompromising stylish individual, but the Tattooed Foot brace offers a great alternative. Although its name might suggest otherwise, it is a temporary cast that fits like a glove, allowing the injured to wear regular clothing while moving with more comfort and ease. Of course, not many would find it necessary to cover up the gladiator-styled cast. All it needs is the matching pair and people will genuinely believe the Tattooed Foot brace is a fashionable sandal.

Designed by Chen Kai Jing, the Tattooed Foot brace was a recent red dot design concept winner. According to the designer, the goal was to "inject the realm of orthotic devices with a dose of style." Mission accomplished.
