E3 Dunlop Volley Shoes Reading Comprehension and Crossword Dunlop Volley shoes taking a bite out of the Big Apple Name _________________ Date __________ Source: Sunday Mail (Australia) August 18 2010, Carly Crawford at: http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/business/volley‐shoes‐taking‐a‐bite‐out‐of‐the‐big‐apple/story‐e6frez7r‐1225906565621 For decades they have served as the unofficial shoes of Australia. But the humble Dunlop Volley is now the hottest sneaker in New York. Steven Alan in front of his shop Amazed by their comfortable simplicity, trendy downtown retailer Steven Alan is selling Australia's unofficial national runner to New Yorkers for $US60 a pair ($66) - more than twice their Aussie price. Mr Alan, who owns eight fashion boutiques in America, spotted construction workers on the Sydney Harbour Bridge wearing them during a trip to Australia last year. He was instantly drawn to the old canvas sandshoe, which launched as a $2.50 tennis shoe in 1939 and was famously worn by tennis legend Ken Rosewall. Mr Alan said, "People are immediately drawn to them because they’re a classic." Mr Alan is selling three different colours - black, white and the popular green and yellow striped version.

  • Preliminary Evaluation of Prototype Footwear and Insoles to Optimise Balance and Gait in Older People Hylton B
    Menz et al. BMC Geriatrics (2017) 17:212 DOI 10.1186/s12877-017-0613-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Preliminary evaluation of prototype footwear and insoles to optimise balance and gait in older people Hylton B. Menz1,2*, Maria Auhl1 and Shannon E. Munteanu1,2 Abstract Background: Footwear has the potential to influence balance in either a detrimental or beneficial manner, and is therefore an important consideration in relation to falls prevention. The objective of this study was to evaluate balance ability and gait patterns in older women while wearing prototype footwear and insoles designed to improve balance. Methods: Older women (n = 30) aged 65 – 83 years (mean 74.4, SD 5.6) performed a series of laboratory tests of balance ability (postural sway on a foam rubber mat, limits of stability and tandem walking, measured with the Neurocom® Balance Master) and gait patterns (walking speed, cadence, step length and step width at preferred speed, measured with the GAITRite® walkway) while wearing (i) flexible footwear (Dunlop Volley™), (ii) their own footwear, and (iii) prototype footwear and insoles designed to improve dynamic balance. Perceptions of the footwear were also documented using a structured questionnaire. Results: There was no difference in postural sway, limits of stability or gait patterns between the footwear conditions. However, when performing the tandem walking test, there was a significant reduction in step width and end sway when wearing the prototype footwear compared to both the flexible footwear and participants’ own footwear. Participants perceived their own footwear to be more attractive, comfortable, well-fitted and easier to put on and off compared to the prototype footwear.
