Footwear Toe‐Box Shape and Medial Forefoot Pressures in Women With Hallux Valgus
Toe-box shape and fit of footwear typically worn by older women with painful HV was not associated with increased medial forefoot pressures in this study sample. Therefore, changing the toe-box width and area of the usual footwear worn by older women with painful, moderate or severe HV may not necessarily reduce medial forefoot pressures where footwear does not appear to play a role.
