Foot part crossword clue

11 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 24, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
HEEL
HEEL (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Foot part” is HEEL. It appears as 11 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 24, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Buckling Up” by Zhouqin Burnikel, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 14 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with H and ends with L, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
