This paper deals with the mutual relationships among the pressures to the shoed foot and in both foot within a new shoe and foot within a fifty-hour-used shoe at the standing posture at three different heel-heights.
1) The pressures to the shoed foot at three different heel-heights is very significant at the level of 0.1%. The heal-heights cause pressure at different parts of foot; the 2nd and 3rd toe points in a 3㎝-heel shoe, and the 1st, 4th and 5th toe points in a 7㎝-heel shoe are more pressured than any other parts of foot.
2) The pressure to the shoed foot caused by heel-heights either within a new shoe or within a fifty-hour-used shoe is significant at the level of 5%, 1% and 0.1%.
Girth measurment, length measurement and big-toe angle are more influenced than any other measurements in a new shoe and within fifty-hour-used shoe at three different heel-heights.
Height measurement is influenced only by heel-heights, and width measurement is influenced; by a new shoe and a fifty-hour-used shoe; the higher the heel-height is, the more increased the the instep-height is and the narrower the shoe width is, which causes much fatigue when compared with bare foot.
Therefore, problems concerned with instep height increasement will be a little solved if foot length, joint girth basic measurements, and foot width are careffully applied for a shoe-making.
