Foot plantar pressure distributions during walking in different foot types

This study aimed to compare dynamic foot pressure distributions at different phases of walking in three different foot postures: a normal one (pes planus) and two abnormal ones (pes rectus and pes cavus). Fifteen young subjects participated in this study. At the start of mid-stance, the peak pressure of abnormal foot types located more lateral than the normal. At the end of terminal stance, the peak pressure of pes planus located more posterior than the others.
