Cheetah® Xceed
Cheetah Xceed is designed to translate the functionality of Össur’s high-performance blades to the needs of the everyday sports enthusiasts. It is appropriate for transfemoral and transtibial users participating in high impact activities, such as recreational jogging, trail running, distance running and triathlons.
Push physical limits.
Say yes to an active lifestyle of running, hiking and more with the Cheetah Xceed. Fitting a wide range of athletes and competitors, the revolutionized blade is a high-performance carbon composite designed to improve performance. Since its introduction in 1996, the Cheetah has been the “gold” standard in prosthetic feet for elite and recreational amputee athletes worldwide.
When the prosthesis hits the ground, the Cheetah blade compresses, storing and returning up to 90% of the potential energy for the next stride, much the way a leg’s calf muscles and Achilles’ tendons spring and recoil. The Cheetah is available in various configurations to reflect such factors as weight, residual limb length and foot alignment in relation to the athlete’s sport of choice.
The winning team
When two pioneers in the field of innovation join forces the outcome is guaranteed to be something special: Meet the Össur running blade with the new Nike Traction or Spike SoleX. A masterclass in comfort, usability and aesthetics these prostheses are designed to go the distance and feel every bit as good as they look.

It is appropriate for transfemoral and transtibial users participating in high impact activities, such as recreational jogging, trail running, distance running and triathlons. It features a longer toe lever for increased energy storage and return. When the prosthesis hits the ground, the Cheetah blade compresses, storing and returning up to 90-95% of the potential energy for the next stride, much the way a leg’s calf muscles and Achilles’ tendons spring and recoil.
The Nike soles have been designed exclusively for the Össur Cheetah Range and have been improved for the blade to provide specialized traction. The Cheetah Xceed is available in various stiffness configurations to reflect such factors as weight, residual limb length and foot alignment in relation to the athlete’s sport of choice.
