Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing lower body movement in low stress and loaded states and selecting footwear are disclosed herein. A system configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a plurality of markers and/or sensors and a controller. The markers or sensors can be used to detect lower body movement of a human subject, including inward and outward knee motion and tibia rotation. The controller can be configured to record lower body movement of the human subject in an unloaded state and a loaded state. The controller can further be configured to determine a trend corresponding to a change in the lower body movement from the unloaded state to the loaded state. Based on this trend, the system can select footwear characteristics that counteract any trend away from the lower body movement in the unloaded state.

Abstract: A running shoe sole has an elastically deformable supporting sole, which has a rear and front foot section connected to each other via a coupling section. An elastically deformable supporting device is arranged on the supporting sole and carries an outsole covering. The supporting device includes a rear foot part which engages around the rear foot section of the supporting sole in a U shape and a front foot part having two limbs which are arranged on mutually opposite lateral edge sections of the front foot section. The rear and front foot part each have a supporting surface, which runs obliquely inward toward the underside of the shoe sole or is curved, preferably convex, and on which the supporting sole rests and is supported in the lateral direction. The rear and front foot parts are made from a highly responsive thermoplastic elastomer of 45-50 Asker Shore C density.
