 note = {Movements of the lower legs and feet during ascending and descending of stairs were observed, and flat shoes, 3cm-heeled pumps, and 8cm-heeled pumps were compared with respect to their functional mobility. The results were as follows:
(1) Twenty female university students participated in the test, which involved measuring the length of time required to walk a certain distance and to ascend/descend stairs. When the
subjects were wearing high-heeled pumps, the length of time required to walk a certain distance increased, and the time required to descend stairs increased remarkably.
(2) Further observation was carried out for six female students when they ascended and descended stairs, and the movements of their legs and feet were analyzed. When the subjects were
wearing high-heeled pumps, the angle between the leg and instep became larger than when they wore other types of shoes, the muscle of the instep was continuously extended, and the rotation
of the ankle became smaller; these facts indicate that high-heeled shoes restrict free movement of the leg and foot.
(3) Pressure distribution on the sole was measured to examine the mobility function of highheeled shoes. When the subjects stepped on the ground, there was no difference in the total pressure
applied to the sole according to the type of shoes. When they kicked the ground, however, the total pressure on the sole was the smallest for the flat shoes. As the heels of the shoes became
higher, more pressure was applied to the front part of the sole, and the transfer of the pressure position during motion became smaller. As a result, it was revealed that high-heeled shoes had an influence on antero-posterior balance of the foot in walking movement., text, application/pdf},
