Effect of rocker soles on plantar pressures1 David Brown, BS, CPed, Jacqueline J Wertsch, MD, Gerald F Harris, PhD, John Klein, PhD, Dennis Janisse, CPed  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 85, Issue 1, Pages 81-86 (January 2004) DOI: 10.1016/S0003-9993(03)00374-5

Fig 1 A diagram of the double, negative heel, and toe-only rocker soles. The double rocker is designed to have a double midstance, and because the midfoot does not touch the floor during foot contact, the ground reaction forces and plantar pressure would be theoretically reduced. The negative heel rocker shifts weight bearing posteriorly by placing the foot in more dorsiflexion, placing the heel below or at the same level as the metatarsal heads. The toe-only rocker is designed to lengthen midstance at the hindfoot and midfoot during walking, while increasing toe spring in late stance.
