shoes too loose. The shoe itself may
be correct as to size and shape, but 1t
is not fastened tight at the only point

floor or pavement in the act OF walk

loosely fastened over the instep the
foot pushes down into the toe OF the
shoe. At certain spots on the foot this
slipping causes friction. These spots
are the soles OF the foot, the tops, end.
and inner sides OF the toes. the greai
and little toe joints and occasionall,
even the back OF the heel.
