| Research Abstract |
The effect of shoe materials on wear comfort and microclimate between shoes and skin while exercising was studied using leather, synthetic leather and artificial leather. Temperature and absolute humidity in synthetic leather shoes were higher than with the other two shoes. Temperatures in leather and artificial leather shoes were about the same but absolute humidity in leather shoes was lower than with artificial leather shoes.
Temperature and absolute humidity were high at the measuring point between the big toe and the first toe, on the skin surface at the arch of the foot and on the socks at the arch of the foot in this order.
The four subjective sensations in connection with wearing synthetic leather shoes were the highest and those wearing the other two shoes were about the same. The effect on those subjective sensations of temperature and absolute humidity between the big toe and the first toe was very large.
