I, Brian Angus Chard, hereby declare that I was the principle researcher of all work included in this thesis, including work published with multiple authors. An author contribution statement for published work is detailed at the beginning of each relevant chapter. Supervisor’s Certificate This is to certify that the thesis titled, ‘The effect of unsupportive and supportive footwear on children’s multi-segment foot dynamics’ submitted by Brian Angus Chard in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy is in a form ready for examination. Professor Richard Smith Discipline of Exercise and Sport Science, Faculty of Health Sciences The University of Sydney September 2017 Abstract Footwear is considered necessary apparel for children’s foot comfort and protection. In Australia, flip-flops (thongs) are an inexpensive and popular footwear style. Despite their popularity among children, strong clinical opinion endures of the potential deleterious effect of thong footwear on developing feet. This anecdotal clinical opinion persists, despite the absence of scientific investigation of the gait-altering effects thongs have on children’s foot motions. On the contrary, thongs may be beneficial for children’s developing feet due to the footwear’s flexible and unrestrictive nature, as children who mature within habitually barefoot communities are observed to develop stronger and healthier feet. The aim of this thesis is to provide clinicians with a firm evidence base on which they can discuss this topic with concerned parents and guardians, while considering the alternative supportive shoe. The background introduces the reader to the established principle that supports the notion that ‘barefoot is best’, outlining the gait-altering effect of footwear, existing knowledge of the effect of thong wear in the context of the developing nature of human ambulation and the physiological basis for children’s foot maturation (see Chapter 1). The method used to determine and describe the effect of footwear on children’s lower limb dynamics is outlined (see Chapter 2). Thongs resulted in increased ankle dorsiflexion during the contact phase of gait by 10.9° while walking and by 8.1° while jogging; increased midfoot plantarflexion during mid-stance by 5.0° while jogging and during propulsion by 6.7° while walking and by 5.4° while jogging; increased midfoot inversion during contact by 3.8° while jogging and reduced hallux dorsiflexion during walking, 10 per cent prior to heel strike by 6.5° at heel strike by 4.9° and 10 per cent post toe-off by 10.7° (see Chapter 3). Sudden directional change during a simulated sidestep, during the stance phase of gait while wearing thongs, resulted in reduced ankle transverse plane motion by 2.0° (22%), while supportive shoes reduced midfoot sagittal-plane motion by 13.1° (45%) and midfoot frontal plane motion by 3.2° (32%). Both thongs and supportive shoes reduced hallux motion by 5° (21%) and 10.4° (44%), respectively (see Chapter 4). In the sagittal plane, wearing supportive shoes reduced midfoot peak plantarflexing angular velocity by 15ᵒ/sec (60%), plantarflexion moment by 0.087Nm/kg (9%), power generation by 4.6W/kg (25%) and increased ankle plantarflexion moment by 4.1Nm/Kg (364%). In the frontal plane, midfoot peak everting angular velocity was reduced by 5.1ᵒ/sec (67%), as was ankle peak inverting angular velocity by 2.6ᵒ/sec (27%). iv In the transverse plane, midfoot peak abducting velocity was reduced by 2.2ᵒ/sec (31%) and peak ankle abduction moment increased by 0.14Nm/kg (90%) (see Chapter 5). The thesis background presented in Chapter 1 provides a basis of understanding for clinicians and scientists to consider the implications footwear may have on children’s developing feet and gait. The methodological approach outlined in Chapter 2 outlines the approach required to determine the effect of footwear on children’s feet using stereophotogrammetry. The three studies presented in this thesis (see Chapters 3, 4 and 5) provide significant insight into the complex mechanisms children engage to wear thongs and the alternative supportive shoe. Ankle dorsiflexion during the contact phase of walking and jogging, combined with reduced hallux dorsiflexion during walking, suggests a mechanism to retain the thong during weight acceptance. Greater midfoot plantarflexion throughout mid-stance while walking and throughout mid-stance and propulsion while jogging indicate a gripping action to sustain the thong during stance. Contrary to anecdotal reports, thongs carry a greater risk of injury than shoes that are not supported by the kinematic results reported in this study, as barefoot motions were unaffected by thongs during the simulated sidestep. The understanding of the sagittal-plane midfoot splinting effect of supportive shoes was reinforced to include a splinting effect in the frontal and transverse planes while sidestepping. Thongs had a minimal effect on barefoot dynamics, while supportive shoes limited midfoot power generation with a corresponding increase in ankle power generation. Although these compensations exist, the overall findings suggest that foot motion when wearing thongs may be more replicable of barefoot motion than originally thought. In terms of foot arch development, thongs may be more beneficial than supportive shoes, due to the minimal alterations to barefoot motions when they are worn. The reported midfoot plantarflexion required to grip the thong may be beneficial to children’s foot arch strengthening and overall foot development. Conversely, supportive shoes, although they have the necessary protective features, have been shown to inhibit midfoot and hallux motions with a compensatory increase in ankle motions. v Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Richard Smith, who saw potential in me and invited me to join Sydney University’s Footwear Research Group. Professor Smith has guided me tirelessly throughout the research process, with an unwavering desire to challenge our understanding. To my associate supervisor, Dr Andrew Greene, thank you for repeatedly picking me up and dusting me off with solid intellectual guidance and ever-positive feedback. To my associate supervisor, Professor Joshua Burns, I have been honoured by your guidance as a colleague, clinician and researcher who has championed modern Australian podiatry. I would like to thank my other associate supervisors, Professor Benedict Vanwanseele and Dr Adrienne Hunt, for their support, encouragement and assistance in producing this robust and valuable contribution to lower limb health. I would like to thank my participants and the parents of the children who participated in the studies presented in my thesis. Without their enthusiasm and unwavering interest during the monotonous hours of testing, this thesis would not have been possible. Thank you to my professional podiatry colleagues, with whom I have practiced in the time it has taken to bring this thesis together and, especially, my past practice manager and friend, Amanda Gurney/Azzopardi, who assisted me in managing the constraints of a busy patient load and podiatry practice. A special thanks to Dr Caleb Wegener, whose guidance in the early days showed a maturity beyond his years with his message to maintain focus and avoid the daily distractions faced as a practicing clinician. I dedicate this thesis to my mother, Elizabeth Chard (podiatrist), whose passion and drive for helping people with foot and leg pain was reinforced at every dinner table conversation and is seemingly endless. To my father, Brian Chard, my personal cheer squad, who has always put his family before himself and unquestionably raced me from one sport training to another and from game to game, often at obscene times, all the while cheering louder than anyone else.

  • Japanese Costume
    JAPANESE COSTUME BY HELEN C. GUNSAULUS Assistant Curator of Japanese Ethnology FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CHICAGO 1923 Field Museum of Natural History DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY Chicago, 1923 Leaflet Number 12 Japanese Costume Though European influence is strongly marked in many of the costumes seen today in the larger sea- coast cities of Japan, there is fortunately little change to be noted in the dress of the people of the interior, even the old court costumes are worn at a few formal functions and ceremonies in the palace. From the careful scrutinizing of certain prints, particularly those known as surimono, a good idea may be gained of the appearance of all classes of people prior to the in- troduction of foreign civilization. A special selection of these prints (Series II), chosen with this idea in mind, may be viewed each year in Field Museum in Gunsaulus Hall (Room 30, Second Floor) from April 1st to July 1st at which time it is succeeded by another selection. Since surimono were cards of greeting exchanged by the more highly educated classes of Japan, many times the figures portrayed are those known through the history and literature of the country, and as such they show forth the costumes worn by historical char- acters whose lives date back several centuries. Scenes from daily life during the years between 1760 and 1860, that period just preceding the opening up of the coun- try when surimono had their vogue, also decorate these cards and thus depict the garments worn by the great middle class and the military ( samurai ) class, the ma- jority of whose descendents still cling to the national costume.

  • Discovery Time, Wooden Shoes
    Get Creative! Auaha-tia Research Kia hurahura Think E Whakaaro Discovery Time Ask 17 Paengawhāwhā | April 2020 Kia pātai A Special Pair of Shoes For our educator Mirjam whose family is in the Netherlands. Do you have loved ones far away? How do you keep in touch with them? Hi, I’m Pip. I have a small pair of hand-carved wooden children’s shoes, given to me by my mother. They are 17.5 cm long, 6.5cm wide and 4cm tall. I first remember them sitting on a shelf in our home when I was very young. I was SO small in fact, that when I first tried them on, they actually fitted me and I would clip-clop around. My mother had found them in an antique shop on Molesworth Street, Wellington. How they ended up there is a mystery, but luckily for us there are some clues to their history, written on the back of one of them, more than a hundred years ago! The oldest wooden shoe known was found in the Nieuwendijk in Amsterdam. This clog dates from Fun facts around the year 1230 and is made of alder wood. Wooden shoes are often called clogs. These are heavy work shoes that were typically worn by French, Dutch and Belgian peasants or farming people, until the Known in French as sabots, and in Dutch as klompen, beginning of the twentieth century. these sturdy shoes protected the feet of agricultural workers from mud and wet and from injury by the Historians have traced the origin of clogs to at least sharp tools used in the field.

  • The Platform Shoe History and Post WWII
    The Platform Shoe – History and Post WWII By Martha Rucker Cave drawings from more than 15,000 years ago show humans with animal skins or furs wrapped around their feet. Shoes, in some form or another, have been around for a very long time. The evolution of foot coverings, from the sandal to present-day athletic shoe continues. Platform shoes (also known as Disco Boots) are shoes, boots, or sandals with thick soles at least four inches in height, often made of cork, plastic, rubber, or wood. Wooden-soled platform shoes are technically also known as clogs. They have been worn in various cultures since ancient times for fashion or for added height After their use in Ancient Greece for raising the height of important characters in the Greek theatre and their similar use by high-born prostitutes or courtesans in Venice in the 16th Century, platform shoes are thought to have been worn in Europe in the 18th century to avoid the muck of urban streets. Of the same practical origins are the Japanese geta, a form of traditional Japanese footwear that resembles both clogs and flip-flops There may also be a connection to the buskins of Ancient Rome, which frequently had very thick soles to give added height to the wearer. During the Qing Dynasty, aristocrat Manchu women wore a form of platform shoe similar to 16th century Venetian chopine, a type of women's platform shoe that was popular in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries which were used to protect the shoes and dress from mud and street soil.

  • Ainu Ethnobiology
    Williams Ainu Ethnobiology In the last 20 years there has been an increasing focus on study of Ainu culture in Japan, the United States, and in Europe. is has resulted in a number of major exhibitions and publications such as “Ainu, Spirit of a Northern People” published in 1999 by the Ainu Ethnobiology Smithsonian and the University of Washington Press. While such e orts have greatly enhanced our general knowledge of the Ainu, they did not allow for a full understanding of the way in which the Ainu regarded and used plants and animals in their daily life. is study aims at expanding our knowledge of ethnobiology as a central component of Ainu culture. It is based in large part on an analysis of the work of Ainu, Japanese, and Western researchers working in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. Ainu Ethnobiology Dai Williams was born in Lincoln, England in 1941. He received a BA in Geography and Anthropology from Oxford University in 1964 and a MA in Landscape Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania in 1969. He spent the majority of his career in city and regional planning. His cultural research began through museum involvement in the San Francisco Bay Area. Based in Kyoto from 1989, he began research on the production and use of textiles in 19th century rural Japan. His research on the Ainu began in 1997 but primarily took place in Hokkaido between 2005 and 2009. Fieldwork focused on several areas of Hokkaido, like the Saru River Basin and the Shiretoko Peninsula, which the Ainu once occupied.

Balachandar2 1The Gandhigram Rural Institute, Dindigul-624302, [email protected] 1Institute of Leather Technology, Chennai-113, [email protected] 2National Institute of Fashion Technology, Chennai-113 Abstract Shoe is the product crafted by human being in primitives to protect their feet from the external things such as heat, cold, thorns and other sharp edges etc. As per the Darwin’s doctrines the human beings are originated from the apes so here we can conclude that while being a monkeys they no need to protect their feet why because they are used to jumping and climbing for transportations or moving one place to another places .And for climbing and jumping four number of legs has been used y them. When the human beings started walking and running instead of jumping and climbing they need to protect their feet from the external things as said above by the help of leafs and animal skins. After long discretion here we can deduce that shoes might be the aine products of this globe and shoe making astute may be the aine manufacturing methodology used /developed by the human beings. By empirical and consensual the followings are the basic needs of human beings and we all are emphasis the same to reach out the every individual in the world they are food ,clothes and dwellings .By deducing we can assure that in the primitives, the human beings give a more attention to the shoes after the food ,why because while they are chasing
