Study Summary

The purpose of this prospective randomized crossover study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new pain relief footwear, Orthofeet, in reducing foot pain and improving daily physical activity.

Primary Outcome

Changes in foot pain from baseline to 6 weeks for each intervention (Orthofeet and own shoes) will be assessed using the Foot Function Index (FFI) questionnaire.

The Pain subscale asks participants to rate their foot pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain), based on their experiences d
