Method for measuring a shape of a foot

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for measuring the shape of a foot by means of comparing the shape of the foot with the shape of the reference foot. This is done by fitting a reference shoe to the foot, locating the area wherein the foot and the reference shoe do not coincide, selecting appropriate filler units for the located area and attaching the filler unit to a corresponding area of a shoe last and reforming the shape of the reference shoe by fitting the reference shoe to the shoe last. This is repeated until the reference shoe and the foot fit together.
