Prosthetic legs have evolved to lightweight and more friendly. The old prosthetics were designed just to allow patients to stand with both legs, but walking and climbing the stairs were difficult, and running was impossible. Then bendable prosthetics were developed. Now a prosthetic that looks like the real thing gives people who lost their legs a better chance to live normal lives, and wear clothes that they otherwise would not wear with the old cyborg-like prosthetics.
One particular design was called LISA, which stood for lightweight, inconspicuous, shapely and active. Running is now possible, and women can even wear shoes with heels, as the ankles can be adjusted with a button.
