Abstract: An article of footwear that acts to strengthen the foot through biofeedback, reduces stresses on the foot that occur during impact through midsole/outsole design characteristics, and enhances the foot's ability to pre-stabilize itself prior to striking the ground by utilizing the foot's “Windlass Effect”.
Abstract: An insole device configured to fit the profile of the human foot to promote proprioceptive stimulation of the Golgi tendon organ. The midfoot section of the insole device has an asymmetric domed structure that is presented to the plantar aspect of the foot at a location found to be the anatomical apex of the foot's arch system. The asymmetric domed structure displays physical properties to catalyst muscle group balancing by using the body's proprioceptive feedback mechanisms. The asymmetric domed structure displays physical properties such that it does not provide functional bracing or support to the plantar aspect of the foot. The net result will be more structurally sound foot capable of more energy efficient and less injury inducing use.
