A person may appear flat-footed in standing but still perform sport movements effectively. Static foot type does not necessarily predict dynamic function. Static foot position does not show what the foot does during walking, running, jumping, or sport. The article criticizes static shoe and orthotic assessment but does not provide a definitive replacement measurement system. Shoe recommendations are context-dependent across standing, walking, running, jumping, sport, and lifting.
