Nanotechnology helps in comfort walking
Do you like this story?
Anaverage person walks about 10,000 steps a day and during lifetime resulting in nearly 150,000 miles, which is four times around the world. The human foot contains approximately 125,000 sweat glands that excrete as much as 250ml of moisture per day and that 25% of 26 bones are located in the human foot. There is a need for modern day footwear for young adults with a casual but flexible option in shoes for which nanotechnology has an answer. The nanotechnology product which is built in the fibres of the shoe reacts to the intensity of the UV light which relaxes and opens up the textile fibre when the sun is strong and gives more ventilation. When the weather is cool, the nanotechnology within the sole allows the fabrics to stiffen thereby reducing air circulation in the shoe. The shoe can have a programmed response to resist bacteria, which allows it to combat foot odour, tinnia and other fungal problems. The product is totally recyclable and can be constantly adapted with other design options such as sole, heel and toecaps. The product also has the additional feature of massage programming. This sole setting is also available in grass, sand and water to give the wearer a virtual organic walking experience.
