DID YOU KNOW?

Before a shoe can be made, as many as thirty-five measurements are taken from a footprint to show the distribution of the body weight.
The maker judges the symmetry of the toes, calibrates the girth of the instep and ball of the foot, and calculates the height of the big toe and the contour of the instep.
He or she must also estimate how the foot will move inside the shoe.
All of these ratios must be addressed without compromising the architectural beauty of the shoe design.
