Abstract
The way in which a person’s foot contacts a shoe surface can have short-term and long-term effects on the whole body. Most previous research on footwear has been carried out using commercially available shoes, and as a result the surface of the shoe with which the foot interacts has not been systematically investigated. A recent invention has allowed the design parameters of a shoe to be investigated. The wedge angle and midfoot conditions were varied, and their effects were modeled with psychophysical relationships. The results show that perceived feelings are closely related to the location of the center of pressure.
