A walking canister system for manufacturing a prosthetic socket, the system comprising:

• a rigid canister including an open end at a top;
• a suspension bladder positioned within the rigid canister;
• an outer chamber wicking material arranged in an outer chamber defined between the suspension bladder and the rigid canister;
• a foam insert positioned within the suspension bladder and including a contoured exterior surface configured to transfer pressure through to an interior surface thereof to produce consistent surface contact with a residual limb, of a walking patient, having casting material thereon;
• an inner chamber wicking material arranged in an inner chamber defined between the foam insert and the suspension bladder;
• an outer chamber vacuum port positioned in the rigid canister and in fluid communication with the outer chamber;
• an inner chamber vacuum port positioned in the rigid canister and in fluid communication with the inner chamber;
• and
• an outer chamber suspension sleeve configured to extend from the residual limb and over the rigid canister.
