Approach :

Focusing on a specific age group (21-30) and gender (women) for your footwear sizing framework project specifically targets leather footwear, which may have different comfort and fit requirements compared to other materials project seeks to develop a tailored solution specifically for women's leather footwear within a certain age group Project explicitly aims to improve footwear comfort and fit, which are crucial factors for consumer satisfaction Create NID standardized lasts “ Niyamit feet “ with a sizing differences from other countries. Creating strategy based on how this can be implemented from designers perspective.

Method :

• Sizing chart prepared by collecting data from minimum & maximum foot size & by calculating percentile

• percentile data to inform ergonomic design decisions such as making of the footwear last

• Every four sizes breadth is changing, length is changing at every size Depth is similarly constant

• The sizing chart was prepared by collecting data from minimum & maximum foot size & by calculating percentile percentile data to inform ergonomic design decisions such as making the footwear last.
