The 9.5th Annual Fall Fall Spectacular

This annual campaign for autumnal perpendicularity, sponsored by “Shoes with Tread”, brings you the latest research in foot gear, exercise programs, technology, and environment and behavior modification designed to keep us upright and in our homes this fall. Try not to be intimidated by the glitz and glamour, and focus on the content.

Tip: There is a consensus that shoes are better than sock feet, that low heels are better than high heels, and that firmer soles with tread provide the best option for people at risk for falling.
