FAQ
Q
How do you measure the feet?
A
You simply need to shoot three types of videos and answer a questionnaire about your feet.
First, we perform foot size measurements using two types of videos. With a system that applies three-dimensional measurement technology used in topography surveying, we generate a three-dimensional model of the foot from the videos.
Finally, by having human eyes verify the position of the joints, we obtain more accurate measurements.
Q
How do you design shoes based on the foot measurements?
A
The information obtained from this process includes not only foot length but also width, ball joint girth, ratio of width, heel width, and the arch length on the medial and lateral of the foot.
Next, using foot stomping videos and the questionnaire, a prosthetist interprets the functionality and tendencies.
Knowing the precise measurements alone is not enough. By observing the foot characteristics through the understanding of anatomy & biomechanics, and incorporating them into the shoe last.
