These studies suggest that poorly fitting footwear may increase the risk of developing hallux valgus and negatively impact gait parameters and cartilage health.
The relationship between footwear habits and the development of hallux valgus angle (HVA) has been a subject of interest in various studies. Hallux valgus, commonly known as a bunion, is a deformity characterized by lateral deviation of the big toe. Understanding how different types of footwear and their fit impact HVA is crucial for developing preventive strategies.

Minimal vs. Conventional Footwear and Cartilage Health:
The evidence suggests that poorly fitting footwear, particularly shoes that are too short, can significantly increase the risk of developing hallux valgus in schoolchildren. Additionally, habitual footwear use impacts gait and foot mechanics, which may contribute to foot deformities. Conventional footwear, compared to minimal footwear, appears to have a more negative impact on foot health, potentially increasing the risk of conditions like hallux valgus. Therefore, ensuring proper footwear fit and considering the type of footwear used are important factors in preventing the development of hallux valgus.
