Dr. Casey Kerrigan joined us and boy did we get an education on women's shoe wear. Learn about the proper shoe support, or lack thereof, and why it's so important. Plus, you can order your own pair on their website. https://oeshshoes.com/
In our podcast, I reference a great commercial Ford made for International Women's Day. Check it out. https://youtu.be/XrjKDG8gGHI
Dr. Kerrigan is co-founder and chair of OESH Shoes. She is a Harvard M.D., an N.I.H. supported biomechanist, and a lifelong runner since her track star days in high school and college. After publishing numerous medical research studies linking traditional women’s shoes to serious long-term health problems and disability, she gave up her coveted position as the first woman-tenured professor and chair in the school of medicine at the University of Virginia, to develop truly healthy shoes for women. Shunned by the shoe industry for her research, she built her own factory and company, OESH Shoes, where she develops not only the shoes but also the machinery, processes, and materials to make them. OESH is recognized by the National Science Foundation for its sustainable zero-waste 3D printing and 3D knitting processes. Making and selling its first batch of shoes in 2011, OESH has a community of thousands of women who believe that fashion should be dictated, first and foremost, by health.
