Fit is a vital characteristic of footwear and has traditionally been evaluated using a panel of human models, whose feet have been measured using a stick and tape or a fitting board. Most major retailers and manufacturers have a particular model that they  fit against or a set of foot dimensions a model must conform to. Finding suitable models is becoming increasingly difficult, particularly for child sizes. Social distancing has disrupted fitting trials and even when human trials can proceed, it is often difficult to find models with the correct foot dimensions. SATRA has been developing an aid to fit assessments that reduces the reliance on human subjects.
