Legmio

Everything you want to know.

All the answers in one place.

User morphology

legmio is suitable for users between 1.50m and 1.95m tall, for a weight of up to 130 kg. Work is underway to widen this range.
The crutch is manually adjustable at two levels — the handle and the elbow support — to adapt to your size.
legmio is suitable for users measuring at least 1.50m.

Crutch specifications

850 grams.
The crutch measures between 1.10m and 1.40m, manually adjustable at the handle and the elbow support.
The structure is made of aluminum. The handle is made of reinforced nylon (GF30) with a TPU coating and nitrile foam for comfort. The support fabric is synthetic with a TPU lamination. The strap is synthetic, with velcro fastenings.
Yes. legmio will come with a standard TPU tip, interchangeable with tips available on the market (18/19 mm diameter).

Tips

Yes, very easily and without any tool. legmio is compatible with standard 18/19 mm diameter market tips.
The standard rubber tip is suitable for most situations. For more grip (outdoors, wet ground), the Flexyfoot stays in constant contact with the ground and offers up to 50% more grip than a classic tip.
Yes, with a compatible 18/19 mm tripod stabilizer tip. A quarter turn is enough to switch from the walking position to the standing position — so the crutch stands on its own during breaks without needing support.
At the first signs of wear. With daily use, count on roughly every 3 to 6 months.

Cushioning

Yes, through two levels: a foam integrated into the handle absorbs vibrations at the grip, and the optional Flexyfoot tip adds ground cushioning via its flexible bellows system.
The handle foam reduces strain on the wrist. The redistribution of support zones limits arm and shoulder fatigue compared to a classic crutch.

International shipping

This will be possible at launch: you will be able to order from your country directly on our website. Any customs fees and local taxes will remain your responsibility upon receipt.

Evidence and certification

legmio is currently undergoing Class I CE medical device certification, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2017/745.
Yes. legmio originated from work by the CNRS/ISIR (Sorbonne University) as part of the ANR ASSISTMOV project (PEPR O2R program), dedicated to mobility and movement assistance.
Yes. legmio is the subject of a patent filed in October 2024 (FR2411206).
Yes. legmio has been evaluated by PRM (Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine) physicians from various SMR centers in France.
Yes. legmio won the Gold Medal at the Concours Lépine 2026, as well as the Positive Media Impact Award.

After-sales & warranty

Our after-sales service will operate from France. Any return or exchange will be done via international mail, at the buyer's expense.
Yes, this will be possible at launch.

Testing legmio

This will be possible at launch, at our future physical retailers.

Use & activity

Yes. Users have already run at speeds between 6 and 8 km/h over distances of about 5 km, without difficulty.
Yes. The interchangeable tip allows legmio to be adapted to different types of ground. The Flexyfoot (18/19 mm compatible) is particularly recommended for outdoor use and uneven ground.
Yes.
Yes. The handle's nitrile foam and the lightweight aluminum structure (850g) are designed for lasting comfort.
Yes, to a large extent: some strength is still needed, but the grip clearly reduces the need for gripping strength.
Yes in both cases. legmio only requires partial foot support on the contralateral side. With a prosthesis: legmio is positioned on the sound side to offload the prosthetic side. To be confirmed with your PRM physician or prosthetist depending on the level of amputation. Without a prosthesis: usable especially post-op or without fitting, provided there is sufficient contralateral support.
legmio is suitable for the same indications as classic crutches: fractures, sprains, post-operative lower limb conditions, chronic conditions reducing foot support, or any context requiring partial or total relief of a lower limb.
You can use it right away: from the first steps, legmio works like an ordinary forearm crutch, with nothing to relearn. What takes a little habit is the hands-free mode — it becomes second nature within a few hours for some, several days for others, as with any new walking aid.
Yes, legmio is compatible with wearing a cast or an orthosis.

Manufacturing and origin

legmio is designed and assembled in France. In detail: the injection-moulded parts are produced by a French plastics manufacturer, the aluminium structure comes from China, and final assembly takes place in France.

Reimbursement and coverage

Not yet: legmio is not on sale and its certification is under way. What we are aiming for will come in two stages. First, partial coverage on medical prescription under the French crutch nomenclature (LPP), whose reimbursement rate currently sits between €12.20 and €18.29. Then a reimbursement line of its own, better matched to what legmio brings.
Yes, depending on your supplementary health insurance policy. In France you can also contact a local assistive-technology support team (EqLAAT): it carries out an assessment and helps you build a PCH or MDPH application.
This is the route we are aiming for, and by far the most favourable one. At work, France's Agefiph (private sector, with recognised disabled-worker status) and FIPHFP (public sector) fund assistive devices up to 90%, which would leave almost nothing to pay. These schemes already exist; what remains is to get legmio into them.

Order and price

The price will be announced at launch.
Directly on legmio.com or from our future partner retailers.
We are aiming for standard delivery within 3 to 5 business days, with an express 24-48h option.
Shipping will most likely be free for any order within mainland France.
Rental is currently under consideration with our physical retailers/distributors.

Maintenance

Cleaning with soapy water and a damp cloth is enough for the whole crutch. Avoid immersion and abrasive products. The aluminum structure and TPU/nylon plastic parts withstand regular wiping. The synthetic fabric can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth.
The tips, handles and straps are replaceable. They will be available directly on our website or from our authorized retailers.
Most crutches are designed as disposable products — as soon as one part wears out, the whole thing gets replaced. With legmio, the opposite choice was made from the design stage: each wearing component (tip, strap, handle) can be replaced separately, which extends the product's lifespan, reduces the overall cost for the user, and limits waste.
