Air cushioned sports shoes are being questioned when they arise. The scientific community has always been controversial about whether the hovercraft shoes can provide a strong and stable protection for the feet in sports.

According to the study,

Generally, the force on the outside of the foot is usually larger than the inside. When moving, it tends to cause the foot to turn inward and sprain.

The thickness of the air cushion increases the height of the heel, and the feeling of the ankle becomes dull. The thicker the air cushion is, the greater the possibility and potential energy to turn inward and the more serious the damage is.

The instability of air cushion can also form a "flip plate" effect. When the foot is on the ground, the inner thickness will increase correspondingly, and the whole shoe will form an inclined plane instantly, causing the foot imbalance to cause the ankle joint to turn inward.

Affect foot development.

The center of gravity of a human body is on the feet, and shoes directly related to feet. Improper wearing of shoes will cause some common foot diseases.

Air cushioned shoes are mostly middle heels, and heel height first affects foot health.

A series of foot diseases such as hallux valgus, interphalangeal neuroma, flat foot syndrome and so on.

Children's feet are still developing. Wearing thin bottom shoes is good for the foot to fully touch the ground, so that the arch and foot muscles grow better.

And wearing thick bottom shoes or sports shoes with air cushions will cause foot dysplasia.
