Question

Discuss the variations in foot shape and the type of shoes that are required for each foot shape.

Answer 1

There are three variations: normal, flat-footed, and high arches. Those with high arches tend to roll their foot outward while running. Shoes with more cushioning and flexibility are required in this case. People who are flat-footed roll their foot inward; this movement demands a shoe that provides more stability.

Answer 2

There are three variations like normal, flat-footed, and high arches. A normal arch is the most common and the most desirable of foot shapes.

Explanation:

• Shoes are not designed to mold to the shape of our feet.
• Instead, our feet are forced to mold the shape of our shoes.
• Those with high arches tend to roll their foot outward while running.
• Shoes with more cushioning and flexibility are required in this case.
• People who are flat-footed roll their foot inward; this movement demands a shoe that provides more stability.
