Footwear

Podiatrists have knowledge in footwear design and research and the common features in a shoe which are important.

Shoes for children up to the age of 3 years should be flexible in the sole and upper.

Adult shoes should have the following characteristics:

• Flex across the ball of the foot
• Supportive heel counter
• The inner-sole and mid-sole should be made out of  foam/EVA to absorb shock and cushion feet from hard surfaces.
