Can you explain a bit more as to what you mean by "classification" please
...safety boots? the type of research you are wanting to carry out might help also?
I can't go into too much detail about the research project but the kind of classification I am looking for would be in relation to e.g. toe box shape, heel height, fastening, rigidity of upper/sole, that kind of thing. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

The old shoe fitters handbook had a classification system that included boot, oxford, pump, mule, sandal, moccasin and one other that I can't recall off the top of my head. Things like toe box shape are hard to categorize as there are many shades of gray. You will probably have to come up with your own classification system.
Regards,
Eric
