Biomechanical Effects of Sandal Strap Design on Gait Kinematics and Electromyographic Activation Patterns: A Speed-Dependent Analysis

Conclusions: Strapped sandals improve plantar load distribution and gait stability by regulating step frequency and reducing lower limb muscle activation, with these effects being more pronounced at higher walking speeds, particularly during forefoot and heel loading phases.
