"Hello, Rain Noe- Thank you for sharing our product and linking our website as I am the inventor and patent holder of this product. Unfortunately many have illegally stolen our idea/ product but can not figure out how to make it. In addition to damaging our brand and product, these counterfeits are extremely dangerous. I highly suggest not doing a DIY with a ruler or trying to make this product. We use a design that has taken years to make and source materials of the highest quality. As you can imagine counterfeiters use the worst materials possible to profit as much as they can before they ruin a product. In our case, they use what is called "Blue Metal" a carbon combination. This makes the knock-off covers extremely dangerous, if you remember years ago how slap bracelets were banned it was because they cut people. When this metal is stepped on it cracks and breaks into a razor-sharp spring with enough torque to cut through your finger. Step in LLC uses only stainless steel that is double as thick and shaped to prevent cuts, in addition, we have developed Patented molds that work in many ways to increase the safety and mechanics of the cover. In addition to safety, our covers work and we have sourced the best materials for the product. Starting with the fabric which is water and stain resistant using polyurethane coating over nylon and synthetic leather for the bottoms. I highly suggest anyone reading this to do their research, not only are the other "variations" illegal and damage a good product, they are extremely dangerous. We are going through the endless loops the major e-commerce platforms but you through but hopefully we will have all the illegal copies out of the United States by the end of the year. It isn't fair to both, our company and the consumers looking for this product that our legal system has allowed big platforms to deceive customers by stealing our pictures, videos, and even the wording of our website.  I wanted to leave this comment because I know how hard it is in today's e-commerce time to find the original creator so I have a lot of respect for someone who would take the time to do a little research and link your article to the official website. For future readers, because of so many copy cats out there, we have had to rename and brand our product to now STEP-IN SHIELD. The original "step in sock" and only cover that works can only be found on our website at www.stepinshield.com anywhere else is just a fake and dangerous and also a big waste of time and money.Thank you!Joel Fersaci"
