Abstract
[Abstract] Background: The footwear assessment tool was designed to advise an appropriate footwear for each situation and
patient. Footwear alterations structures can influence in musculoskeletal disorders, developing foot ulcers, increase
the peak plantar pressure, bacterial growth, low back pain. Methods: To validate the study 101 subjects
were recruited. The study was tested by two expert podiatrists using the tool for the assessment of footwear
characteristics that is composed by five domains, fit, general features, general structure, motion control properties
and cushioning system. Each domain analyzes different shoe items. Results: An excellent agreement between
the test-retest. A suitable Cronbach’s α was suggested for the five domains of fit (α = 0.952), general
features (α = 0.953), general structure (α = 0.947), motion control properties (α = 0.951), and cushioning system
(α = 0.951). Test-retest reliability was excellent for all domains. There were no significant differences between
any domain (p > 0.05). There was only statistically significant difference in the item forefoot height (p = 0.011).
For all the domains items there were no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The tool for
the assessment European footwear is a suitable repeatability and reliability footwear tool that can be used in
Spanish language subjects.
