Hi Everyone,
 
Looking for new/creative partial foot ideas.this gentleman has worn lots
of designs in the past: silicone, leather, short laminated socket. He
looks to be a Boyd level amputation possibly a Chopart. Amputation as a
child secondary to trauma (lawnmower I believe). Looks are deceiving, I
thought I could use a UCB style with soft toe filler and a good
supportive shoe with laces through back eyelets...but he walked out of
it. I'd love to hear your suggestions out there!
 
Thanks,
