abstract = {The purpose of this study is to investigate how the different heel heights of women's shoes influence
walking according to walking analysis findings. Identifying heel heights that do not impair walking
comfort were also investigated. Ten female university students were chosen as subjects and asked to
wear sample pumps with heel heights of 1.5, 3.5, 5.5, and 8.5 cm. The walking experiments focused on
walking movements, muscular activities of the lower limbs, and ground reaction at the point of impact.
A questionnaire was then used to determine comfort levels while walking. The analysis discovered
that the height of the heel was positively correlated with vertical movement, and that the subsequent
change in walking movements resulted in an increase in muscular activities and ground reaction, and
a corresponding increase walking discomfort. It was also found that poor ratings were given for each
measurement item when a heel height of 8.5 cm was used, leading us to conclude that comfort during
walking is compromised when the heel height increases beyond 6 cm.},
