Joann- Sarah's boy friend-or husband as she calls him wears orthotics
also--he is 13 now.  He wear tube sox alot-that come up high. When younger
anytime we found plain cotton kneesox- no cables or anything we bought him
some & Sarah--Then they folded over the top--  Uniform stores usually have
some in Navy, Grey, Green, White-so it works great for both of them.   Joy
