Section 2: Length Adjustment - Allows you to
add or subtract from the reported numbers in
order to achieve the correct shoe size. Use
after measuring a known shoe size and adjust
accordingly. For each half shoe size, add or
subtract approximately 0.4.
Section 3: Width Adjustment: Allows you
to adjust the width of the recommended
shoe size. M: adjusts for men’s sizes,
while W: adjusts for woman’s sizes. An

Footwear / Orthotics Categories
At the beginning of a test, you have an option to
select the footwear type. The default choices are
‘Dress,’ ‘Walking,’ ‘ Athletic,’ and ‘Casual.’ For
each footwear type there are associated
‘Orthotics,’ ‘Socks’ and ‘Gender’ choices. This
screen (Figure 4H) will allow you to add or delete
new footwear types or modify existing ones.
Arches / Conversion
Arches
The iStep program determines arch type
based on the depth of sensors on the instep.
In the following test (Figure 4I), the arch line
shows an instep depth of four columns of
sensors. For a size 12 foot, a medium arch is
any depth between three and five. If the foot
shows fewer than three sensors, a low arch is
determined. For more than five sensors, a
high arch is determined.
Conversion
Since European sizes can vary compared to
American sizes, the customer can customize
the US/EU conversion chart of sizes. Enter the
desired European shoe size that compares
with the US shoe size for accurate conversions
(Figure 4J). Click on the ‘Sizes’ tab to select
the size range to adjust.
