A cantilevered shoe construction for preventing knee and hip osteoarthritis. The shoe construction includes a cantilevered foot support with an anchored lateral side and a fully or partially cantilevered medial side. The cantilevered foot support transfers forces, otherwise transmitted through the medial aspect of the shoe and foot, to the lateral side of the shoe and foot, thereby reducing the knee varus and hip adductor torques to prevent or delay onset of knee and hip osteoarthritis and reducing the ankle joint adductor torque to reduce the risk for ankle sprain injury. The reduction of these joint torques also maintains posture without counterbalancing muscle activity, thereby improving muscle efficiency and performance during weight bearing activities and reducing the tendency for musculoskeletal injury. A spring loading effect of other embodiments enhances the natural coronal foot progression during gait so as to enhance the push off phase of gait.

A built-in or added-on extension is situated upon a side of a shoe so as to minimize or prevent injury caused by inversion of a foot/ankle during athletic or other activities. The extension protrudes laterally out from the side of the shoe and has a substantial horizontal component, with an outer surface portion(s) adapted in shape, size, and/or placement so that said portion(s) will impact the floor/ground upon inversion of the foot/ankle but that none of the extension impacts, rubs, slides, or otherwise contacts the ground/floor during normal activities of the wearer. Said impact/contact only occurs when there is significant ankle/foot inversion, that is, enough to potentially cause a mild lateral ankle sprain. The preferred extension cushions and/or stops inversion at an angle of inversion and/or at a time during the inversion wherein the wearer may recover and straighten his foot/ankle before serious injury to the ankle.
