Hi Amanda,
I’ve got a toe off from the orthotics dept of the hospital, if that’s what you mean. Carbon fibre sole goes under your foot then carbon fibre twists up the front of your leg. I asked how much they cost and it’s nearly £300.
Must say I find mine quite comfortable. The problem is getting shoes or boots that fit it. Half a size bigger with an insole in the non foot up shoe works. Stops me tripping over and makes my walking better. Only problem is you can only wear with trousers but that’s fine.
Good luck,
Jen xx
