Support for healthy way of walking to protect knee jointsThe fin in the screw section is deformed by the body weight when the heel touches the ground, and helps to rotate the toes slightly outward with the step. With this support for the rotation movement of knee, it promotes the correct way of walking. |
Structure that evenly absorbs shock to the kneeThe shock of landing is transmitted to the knee as a burden through the heel. The SHM® feature alleviates that shock with the elasticity of its rubber. Moreover, the screw structure distributes the pressure exerted by the body weight efficiently to lessen the load. |
Acting on the inner thigh muscle supporting the kneeThe inner thigh muscle provides support and protection for the knee when people walk (medial great muscle). SHM® promoting the Screw Home Movement acts on the inner thigh muscle efficiently to achieve the correct way of walking. |
