A prosthetic foot ( 147 ) has a longitudinally extending foot keel ( 149 ) and a resilient, monolithically formed calf shank ( 148 ) extending upwardly from the foot keel to form an ankle joint area of the prosthetic foot and a lower, prosthetic part of a leg above the ankle joint area for connection with a lower extremity prosthetic socket on a person's leg stump. At least the lower portion of the calf shank extending upwardly from the foot keel is anterior facing convexly curved. The shank and at least a portion of the foot keel are monolithically formed. |
