Footwear and Shoe Testing

Footwear refers to garments worn on the feet, which typically serve the purpose of protection against adversities of the environment, easing locomotion and preventing injuries. Form was originally tied to function but over time shoes also became fashion items. Some shoes are worn as safety equipment, such as steel-toe boots, which are required footwear at industrial worksites.
