Abstract
We aimed to illustrate the differences in the external inversion/eversion moment between barefoot and shod running under the same foot strike pattern and to identify the contributing factors. Fifteen healthy females participated and were instructed to run while keeping their habitual foot strike pattern in barefoot and shod conditions. From the three-dimensional coordinates of running (500 Hz) and the ground reaction force (1000 Hz), the foot external eversion/inversion moments were calculated. During the stance phase of running, the shod condition exhibited a significantly larger external inversion moment than the barefoot condition. The centre of pressure trajectory shifted medially in the shod condition, most likely explaining the emphasised external eversion moment seen in the shod condition. It can be suggested that the shoe sole structure induced this unique change.
