Footwear Fit Education & Quick Fit Assessment for Older Adults
During May and June 2026, four community footwear-fit sessions were conducted for older adults in Hong Kong. Three sessions combined a Footwear Fit Talk with a practical Fit Assessment for approximately 40 participants.

The talks aimed to help older adults understand
the importance of wearing the correct shoe size. Participants learned how to check whether they were wearing appropriately sized footwear, while the Fit Assessment provided a practical evaluation of their current footwear fit. A fourth session provided Fit Assessment only for approximately 10 additional participants.
Across the four sessions, approximately 50 older adults participated in a footwear fit assessment, providing field-based observations that may contribute to future research and educational work on footwear fit among older adults.
