Increasing prevalence of plantar fasciitis is expected to boost orthopedic footwear market growth. For instance, in October 2018, National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) stated that plantar fasciitis occur in around 10% of the global population, with 83% of these patients being active working adults between the age of 25 and 65 years old. Plantar fasciitis is a common foot condition that involves inflammation of the plantar fascia.
