説明

The conditions necessary for a “good” athletic shoe seem to be a matter of personal preference and experience. There is, however, a general consensus that people like a shoe which fits well, is comfortable to wear, and feels good.<br>This paper studied the conditions for perceiving a shoe to be a “good” athletic shoe, specifically a basketball shoe. The study used a questionnaire survey to achieve the following purposes:<br>1) To understand how people perceive the meaning of: “comfortable”, “fits well”, and “feels good, ” in relation to a basketball shoe.<br>2) To investigate how much each feature of a basketball shoe contributes to a wearer's perception of comfort, fit, and feel.<br>3) To find the degree of importance of each part of a basketball shoe in determining overall satisfaction.<br>The results showed that the three terms-comfort, fit, and feel-were found to be highly intercorrelated (greater than 0.80). Therefore, people might perceive comfort, fit, and feel as conceptually non-discrete.<br>The conditions associated with a good basketball shoe were discovered to be:<br>1) A shoe with a mid-cut collar height.<br>2) A shoe that provides features that give the sensation of a “little tight” fit.<br>3) A shoe in which the rearfoot area, which includes the heel, collar, and arch area was more salient than the other parts of the basketball shoe.
