Abstract

The information gleaned from kinetic and kinematic studies on foot function and gait in relation to shoes can be applied clinically after considering the key findings of the research discussed in this article. These studies demonstrate the events of the gait cycle are somewhat different from what many providers have been taught. Greater pronation of the subtalar joint when entering the propulsive period, where resupination will most likely be occurring, would be expected.
