Abstract: The female age group, compared to all other groups, is more faced with the problem of choosing comfortable shoes. This is due to the fact that this group has the most variation in shoe types, especially in the shape and height of the heel, the shape and length of the nasal part. The comfortable characteristics of shoes are directly proportional to these factors. The height and shape of the heel are always in a certain correlation with the length and shape of the nose. All shoe styles have their own impact on foot comfort. Increasing the height of the heel leads to an increase in the load on the support. Which, accordingly, requires more effort to maintain balance and keep the whole body in a tense position when walking and standing. During movement, the foot, its bones, joints, tendons and muscles experience various impacts, and therefore the load on all parts of the foot is great. Therefore, a necessary condition for the manufacture of comfortable shoes, in addition to the optimal size range, is a comfortable supporting surface in each section of the shoe. Such a shape of the toe part, the optimal selection of which has a great importance for the comfortable placement of the ankle joint in the front part, for unloading the joints or facilitating movements.
Key words: women's shoes, comfort, joint.
