Summary
This study looked at how carrying a school backpack on one shoulder versus both shoulders changes the pressure on the soles of the feet in 92 healthy teenagers. Researchers found that carrying a backpack on one shoulder increased the amount of foot touching the ground, but the overall pressure under the feet stayed the same. The takeaway: using both shoulder straps is best for healthy foot mechanics.
