Ok folks if you have or are using the Cirrus foot
please give some input.......
I just got off the phone with the manufacturer. I was
concerned with two things about the foot, he answered
me satisfactorily and I believe honestly. However it
would be nice to see some input from CPs and amputees
who are familiar with the foot if you have the time.
1.) Have there been problems with breakage? Particularly
in the toe as I live in a hilly area and frequently walk up and
down very steep grades in and out of my house.
2.) I plan to wear Cowboy style boots with the foot, and
occasionally a waterproof hunting boot. [same or similar heel
height from 1 to 1/2 inches] Is the foot acceptable for this use?
Note most of the ground I walk on is uneven ground.
3.) Due to some knee problems I wish to use a shock pylon
with the foot. What pylon have you or do you use with the foot?
Are you satisfied with its performance?
If you wish to respond privately that is fine [I will share all posts
with my CP though] My address is <Email Address Redacted>
Thanks for your time
