TRADITIONAL SHOES STIMULATE UNNATURAL BIOMECHANICS OF MOVEMENTS When walking and running, body weight is naturally absorbed by the arches of the feet and calf muscles. Modern footwear, due to heels, has taught us to start every step from the heel. Because of this, the body weight load is transferred to the knees and hips. Barefoot shoes help to walk and run with anatomically natural biomechanics. The flexibility and strength of the big toe, which is often compressed in traditional footwear, is extremely important for proper movement biomechanics. The big toe and the pad of the foot should naturally produce a repulsive force when walking and running. |
BAREFOOT SHOES STIMULATE THE NATURAL BIOMECHANICS OF MOVEMENTS Barefoot shoes or minimalist shoes are the shoes with a very thin sole and without any cushioning or frame. Walking and running in such shoes resembles moving barefoot. Barefoot shoes help to walk and run with anatomically natural biomechanics. Barefoot shoes are made for work, leisure, sports both indoors and outdoors for all seasons. |
