Assessing underfoot impacts

Investigating the location of underfoot pressure – key information that can be used to determine specific areas for added footwear comfort.

During the past year, SATRA has examined the impact of walking gait on underfoot pressure in footwear. This was conducted using modern technology as part of a study confirming past research and verifying current guidelines. Attaching a pressure mapping system to the insock within footwear, we were able to locate pressure points in relation to the foot’s location in the footwear.
