Determination of lower extremity anthropometric measurements in adult healthy women wearing and non-wearing narrow toed high heeled shoes

Öz

Purpose: The present study was aimed to analyze morphometric measurements of lower extremity dimensions in healthy females wearing and non-wearing high heeled shoes with narrow toe box.

Materials and Methods: Lower extremity length measurements were taken from 121 healthy adult females (64 females non-wearing high heel shoes with narrow toe box, 57 females wearing high heeled shoes with narrow toe box) aged 20 to 40 years using an anthropometer and caliper. Additionally, demographic data (age, height, weight and body mass index-BMI) were taken and tibia-femur ratio (the ratio between tibia length and femur length-T/F) were calculated. 

Results: The mean values of Tibia - femur length ratio were found as 0.9087±0.038 (right) and 0.9088±0.036 (left) in females wearing high heeled shoes with narrow toe box, whereas the same values were established as 0.9128±0.035 (right) and 0.9157±0.032 (left) in females non-wearing high heeled shoes with narrow toe box. Furthermore, 53.12% of females non-wearing high heeled shoes with narrow toe box suffer from foot, knee and back pain, whereas 78.94% of females wearing shoes with narrow toe box suffer from foot, knee and back pain. 

Conclusion: The observations presented in this report have defined anatomic parameters and morphometric changes that need to be taken into consideration when wearing narrow high heeled shoes and shoes having wide toe box in females.
