    Abstract: A prosthetic limb socket liner system is provided. A compressible foam insert has a substantially cylindrical hollow interior which is defined by an interior insert surface and an opening. The opening and the hollow interior are configured to accept a substantial portion of a residual limb. A laminar pocket substantially covers the insert. The laminar pocket includes an elastomeric fabric layer which defines a concave interior, another elastomeric fabric layer which defines an exterior of the laminar pocket, and a flexible polymer layer between the two elastomeric fabric layers and bonded to the elastomeric fabric layers. The pocket has an open proximal end, a closed distal end. The open end and the concave interior are configured to accept a substantial portion of the compressible foam insert. The exterior of the laminar pocket is configured to fit into a socket of a prosthetic limb.
