Barefoot Style Versus Conventional Footwear – What’s the Difference?

In this video, our Founder and  Physiotherapist Panda Li discusses the differences between barefoot versus conventional style trainers and how it impacts injury management particularly in the foot & ankle.

Aspects such as a wider toe box, lower stack height and zero heel-drop of a barefoot style trainer are explained and how they alter your gait, running biomechanics and lower leg strength. She also touches on the importance of how to transition into a barefoot style trainer without injury.
