| Summary: | A field study was conducted on light fabrication workers who after the shift. Psychosocial measures (Work APGAR and WES- and feet showing significantly less increase in discomfort and flexibility. Participants' spinal column shortened less and overall fit. The SAS shoe was found to be at least athletic shoes. Future studies should investigate a variety average on all categories except heel support and walking comfort, where the SAS shoe was slightly below average. Ten compared to the participant's normal working shoes. Results determine if changes over the work shift occurred. Total, I eight chose not to wear SAS shoes for the entire month. I of 14 total physiological measurements indicated a length, stature, flexibility, and heart rate. Subjective measures included a body part discomfort survey and the SAS of high quality shoes that individuals pick for comfort. out of the 17 participants complained of heel discomfort, and participants (five male, four female) were utilized for Physiological and subjective measures were taken before and qualities of the shoes: arch support, compression of sole, quality shoe, such as a SAS shoe, on standing fatigue. Nine R) were also taken. Physiological measures included: foot SAS shoes. Significant statistical differences (p < 0.05) shift. The SAS shoe evaluation rated seven different shoe evaluation. First, the measures were tested to shoes worn for one month, and the participant's own shoes showed significant differences (p < 0.05) for spinal length significant change over the day. Next, the SAS shoes were statistical analysis. The study lasted two months with SAS temperature, leg volume, foot volume, spinal area, spinal the 12-hour shift after the completion of each test period. the SAS shoes. Many of these non-normally wore high quality toe room, heel support, walking comfort, standing comfort, Twelve of the 17 participants preferred their own shoes to were also found in body part discomfort with the lower legs when participants wore the SAS shoes over the course of when wearing SAS shoes and became more flexible when wearing worked 12-hour shifts to determine the effect of a high worn for the other month.
