Abstract: Children’s gait is different and more complicated than adults’, due to their developing and changing musculoskeletal system. Temporal-spatial parameters and plantar pressure distribution are key characteristics of gait patterns. The purpose of this review paper is to classify and surmise the factors for the two characteristics, considering age, BMI, deformity, burden, etc., providing some suggestions for clinical diagnosis and footwear design for children.

Key words: children, temporal-spatial parameters, plantar pressure, footwear design
