The results of my recent thesis project revealed that carbon fiber shoes raise the peak plantar stress on the forefoot (mainly at the MTP joint/"ball of the foot") by 18% over shoes made without carbon fiber materials. My theory is that the lack of flex in the carbon shoes causes the...

I am doing a research study on the stress experienced by the foot in cycling shoes. I am curious if there are any ANSI standards or similar standards used in the design of foot-operated controls that state how much stress the foot can withstand and how much stress is "too much". I am...
