摘要

带有特制外底的冬靴（复合鞋类）可将冰上摔倒的风险降低 78%。然而，一项试点研究也发现，这种复合鞋的防滑性会随着模拟使用而相对快速地降低。本研究的目的是评估流行的复合材料鞋（带 IceFX 外底）在冬季实际使用过程中的防滑性变化。18 名参与者在 4 个月的冬季使用了复合材料鞋。每月使用最大可实现角度（MAA）测试测量防滑性的变化，同时使用计步器跟踪步数。在 150,000 步的测试中，MAA 分数从 13.86±1.35 (SD) 降至 8.81±1.32 (SD)，仅在 75,000 步后就出现了显著下降。防滑能力的下降表明，即使在使用的第一个季节，在冰面上滑倒的风险也可能会增加。

Evaluating changes in slip-resistance performance of select IceFX® winter boots in real-world use over a winter season

Winter boots with specialized outsoles (composite footwear) may be able to reduce the risk of falls on ice by 78%. However, a pilot study has also found that the slip resistance of this composite footwear can diminish relatively quickly with simulated use. The objective of this study was to evaluate the change in slip resistance of popular composite footwear (with IceFX outsoles) over a winter season of real-world use. Eighteen participants were given composite footwear to use over 4 winter months. Changes in slip resistance were measured monthly using the Maximum Achievable Angle (MAA) test while a pedometer was used to track step counts. Over 150,000 steps, MAA scores dropped from 13.86±1.35 (SD) to 8.81 ± 1.32 (SD), with a significant decrease after just 75,000 steps. This drop in slip resistance suggests that the risk of slip-related falls on ice may increase during even the first season of use.
