3D foot model for women who wear smaller size shoes

Abstract

Adult women who have Smaller Size Feet (SSF) suffered a lot when purchasing shoes for proper size and fit. Most of them can only wear sneakers with shoelace or select some shoes in children's section due to the right size. However, these shoes are improper for them. Despite the limitation of style option, the shoes may cause uncomfortableness even severe consequence when wearing constantly. This study aims to prove that the 3D foot model of women who have Smaller Size Feet (SSF) is different from children's measurements and also different from the model scaled down from normal women size. A newly designed prototype will be made for wear trial and assessment.
