Abstract:
A shoe sole, to which an upper member is joined, the shoe sole including a bottom receiving part corresponding to a bottom of the upper member, and a rising part that is formed to rise upwardly from an upper side of the bottom receiving part so as to cover an outer surface of a side of the upper member, wherein the bottom receiving part is formed with vent grooves each recessed in a thickness direction from the upper surface of the bottom receiving part, wherein the rising part is formed with vent holes each penetrating therethrough in a thickness direction of the rising part, and wherein the vent hole is formed to have a vertically elongated shape extending from an upper end side to a lower end side of the rising part, and to be in communication with the vent groove.
Abstract:
A sole includes a midsole body and a buffer member made of a material having hardness lower than that of a material constituting the midsole body. A mounting portion that mounts the buffer member is formed on a surface of a rearfoot region of the midsole body. The buffer member is mounted on the mounting portion in a non-adhesive state. One of the mounting portion and the buffer member includes a reference surface and a protrusion. The other of the mounting portion and the buffer member includes a recess. The recess includes a surrounding wall having a shape that entirely surrounds a periphery of the protrusion.
Abstract:
An upper of a shoe covering at least a part of a foot, the upper including: a medial portion covering a medial surface of the foot; a lateral portion covering a lateral surface of the foot; a plurality of panel portions provided in the medial portion and/or the lateral portion while being spaced apart from each other in a front-rear direction of the foot and extending in a foot girth direction crossing the front-rear direction of the foot; and a plurality of string portions formed from linear members extending in the front-rear direction, and arranged so as to extend between a pair of the plurality of panel portions that are adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction, wherein the panel portion and the string portion are formed from a single piece of fabric.
Abstract:
A shoe includes: a sole; an upper disposed above the sole and including a wearing opening; a first band including a first base end fixed to a boundary part between the upper and the sole, at a position in front of the wearing opening, the first band extending diagonally upward from the first base end to a position in the rear of the wearing opening of the upper; a second band including a second base end fixed to the boundary part, the second band extending frontward from the second base end to a position in front of the wearing opening, the second band bringing the first band into contact with the upper, at a portion where the second band intersects the first band; and a tightening part applying tightening force to the second band to tighten the upper.
Abstract:
A shoe sole includes: a sole body located to extend continuously from a forefoot portion to a rearfoot portion; and a highly rigid member fixed to the sole body, the highly rigid member being formed of a material that is higher in rigidity than a material forming the sole body. The highly rigid member includes a curved plate portion extending in a direction crossing a right-left direction corresponding to a foot width direction of a foot of a wearer. The curved plate portion has an inverted arch shaped portion that protrudes toward a ground contact surface of the shoe sole in a cross section taken along a line orthogonal to a direction in which the curved plate portion extends. At least a part of the curved plate portion is disposed in the forefoot portion.
Abstract:
A shoe includes: a shock-absorbing member formed from a foam body including a thermoplastic resin; a solid-form soft member including a polymer resin, having a greater weight per unit volume and a lower hardness than the shock-absorbing member, and having a smaller volume change per unit volume, than the shock-absorbing member, for a change in external pressure within a predetermined external pressure range; and an outsole including a thermoplastic resin, having a tread surface, and rolled up upward along at least a part of an outer edge thereof, thereby defining an accommodating portion to accommodate the soft member between the outsole and the lid, wherein: the shock-absorbing member forms the lid to lid the soft member from a side of an upper; and the soft member is wrapped in the accommodating portion, being in contact with at least a part of inner surfaces of the shock-absorbing member and the outsole.
Abstract:
A structure including hard bone portion extending to a sole side face outer side at a time of pressure reception, and elastic soft skin portion provided at an outer side of the hard bone portion, absorbs impact at a time of landing and the like, where at least part of the hard bone portion is along sole side face, and the elastic soft skin portion have a structure wherein at a time of pressure reception, the hard bone portion undergoes bending deformation in a vertical section to extend to the sole lateral side, and by receiving the deformation, the elastic soft skin portion undergoes elastic deformation to bulge to the sole lateral side to absorb a received pressure load, thereafter, with decompression, the elastic soft skin portion undergoes elastic deformation to contract to the sole inner side, and with this, the hard bone portion is restored to an initial state.
