Hello colleagues,
I have a transtibial amputee client who is a landscaper and works in gravel, dirt, mud, etc. He has previously used, and wants to continue to use a prosthetic foot without a footshell or shoe. I have added various types of crepe and soling over the years. The challenge is always durability where the toe of the carbon foot cuts through the soling material. We are now looking at a new foot, possibly with more toe rocker, carbon blade type shank for increased flexibility. Any other helpful suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks,
