Lower (sole) anatomy 3 components to the sole of a shoe – Inner sole – Middle sole – Outer sole ZYcpnM&tbnid=mcejDICpLGKXAM:&ved=0CAUQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhypebeast.com%2F2009 %2F11%2Fasics-gtii-tweed- collection%3F_locale%3Den&ei=FyORUfW9DIS0iQf7wYHYDQ&bvm=bv ,d.aGc&psig=AFQj CNEK5VoPanPLsFR_jt22pcfqHwf4KQ&ust=
Outer sole Portion of the sole that makes contact with the ground Provides traction, resists wear, and absorbs shock Treaded layer glued to midsole Thinner than the midsole Typically, either made from: – Blown rubber lighter, but less durable – Carbon rubber heavier, but more durable – Combination

Middle sole Thickest layer Provides the majority of cushioning and shock absorption Modification layer Typically made from EVA or PU – Ethylene vinyl acetate lighter, better cushioning, deteriorates quicker – Polyurethane denser, heavier, more durable
Modification layer Mid sole cushioning devices Medial post Shank
Mid sole cushioning device Majority comes from EVA Manufactures also insert their proprietary cushioning systems (w/n midsole) Most common cushioning systems use encapsulated air, gel or other materials
Medial post Within the midsole (firmer) EVA, thermoplastic urethane, carbon fiber or other materials In stability and motion control shoes Not in cushioned or neutral shoes Size,shape, & density determine amount of stability provided
Shank Stiffens the shoe under the arch Makes the middle portion of the shoe more resistant to torsion and flexion In most running shoes except the lightest and most flexible Assists shoe in bending at toes Adds weight
Inner sole Not visible on constructed shoe Junction attachment of the sole to the upper shoe Not an insert
Sizing Use a similar weight sock and orthotics Leave at least ¼ inch (up to ½ inch) between longest toe and end of shoe Heel counter should be snug enough to prevent heel from sliding Fit shoe during the end of the day (swelling) Shoes should never need breaking in Always try on both shoes

Shoe life Less dependant on age of shoe More dependant on amount of usage and signs of wear Athletes vs non-athletes Work vs casual Differences among body habitus Presence deformities
Shoe breakdown Occurs most commonly at the outer sole Has has outer sole worn through to the middle sole? Is there a 4mm difference from the other side of the heel?
Shoe breakdown Lack of middle sole shock absorption Uneven on flat surfaces Noticeable creases General rule of thumb: Replace miles
Shoe breakdown Heel counter deviation
Guidelines for replacement Even without use shoes can wear out Depending on environment Best to replace athletic shoes that are over a year old Can be expensive in short term Will prevent injuries and keep patients active in long run
Picking shoes Right shoe for the right foot Best shoe for the job Comfort & Function > Appearance Remove/Avoid if irritating

Shoe recommendations APMA AAPSM You don’t need to recommend a manufacturer, but give patients the knowledge to find their own shoes
Minimalist shoes
Became popular after an article in Time in 2007 Predominantly anecdotal Concept: – Feet were not meant to wear shoes, therefore, cannot function efficiently with use – Barefoot/minimalist shoes allow strengthening of the pedal musculature
Minimalist shoes Conflicting research Difficult to assess Assumes no deformity
Diabetic shoes AKA extra-depth shoes AKA therapeutic shoes Prescribed k7M&tbnid=aC64w_qbQqhp3M:&ved=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wcbl.com%2Forthotics-2%2Fdiabetec- shoes%2F&ei=4ziQUfmGJqKbigfr84Eo&bvm=bv ,d.aGc&psig=AFQjCNFL-1QBiFX9KRnO7EKvDUiWbwc-mA&ust=
Diabetic shoes Function – Protect residual foot – Maintain position inside the shoe & reduce shear – Contribute to restoring normal gait – Allow for accommodation of orthotic device – Allows for modification e.g. steel shank or rockerbottom
Diabetic shoes Supplied by orthotist or sale in private office Medicare supply new pair & 3 inserts each year Exam shoes during patient encounter NPM&tbnid=Y8ltNc5- 6F4p3M:&ved=0CAUQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freemandrug.com%2Fid64.html&ei=cCSRUfiWH82ViAeV3YGgBA&bvm =bv ,d.aGc&psig=AFQjCNF_wkPftLE5ldCZiUBxAVm3rINALg&ust=
Conclusion Today’s shoes are variations of the 7 basic models Sole vs upper Find the correct shoe for the correct foot for the correct job Diabetic shoes can help prevent ulcer formation
