 – The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 174 with Geoffrey Gray

 Geoffrey Gray is the founder and President of Heeluxe who started the company by building custom high heels in a garage. He is the driving force behind Heeluxe’s mission to “Make Better Shoes.” Dr. Gray is inspired by the works of Salvatore Ferragamo and Bill Bowerman and their efforts to create footwear that is inspired by the human body. His background in Physical Therapy, professional athlete rehabilitation, woodworking, and classic car building give him a unique skill set to progress the research and design of all styles of footwear. As a speaker Dr Gray makes shoes science easy to understand which is why he is selected to speak at footwear brands, conferences, and television shoes all over the world.

Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Geoffrey Gray about what researchers say about comfortable shoes.

 Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week’s show:

- How the scientific community doesn’t know everything there is to know about feet.

- Why the traditional way to deal to deal with bunions doesn’t fix the problem they cause.

- How it’s easy to become myopic and blame one issue for the entire problem.

- Why running shoes are the most studied shoes on the planet.

- How researchers should be looking at the shoes people wear to work every day.
