As an IDA Sports affiliate Pride Park brings IDA's women's specific footwear to our players - who will enjoy a 10% discount on all purchases.
IDA is shaking up the sports footwear industry, which has long ignored the needs of female athletes and thought that "shrink it and pink it" was enough. As it turns out, unisex boots aren't enough for all athletes and are uncomfortable!
By simply designing boots specifically for female athletes and their unique biomechanics on the field, IDA have redefined the footwear game and brought comfort and support to players worldwide.
Women's feet are different to men's and unisex just doesn't work for all. Women often have...
• A wider toe box and narrower heel cup leading to a more triangular foot shape.
• Higher arches needing more support.
• Different pressure loads, weight distribution, and traction needs!
The result can be boots that are ill fitting - with tight toe boxes and loose at the heels and which don’t provide sufficient support for the arch.
But it’s about more than comfort, with boots possibly being one of the root causes in the high incidence of some types of injuries - anterior cruciate ligament ruptures in particular, which are 8 times more likely to happen to female footballers than their male counterparts.
