Title:
靴用中底および靴底
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5054270
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A shoe midsole ( 1 ) for shoes with exceptional walking comfort, eg hiking shoes. The shoe midsole is provided with a shock absorber ( 6 ) in its heel zone ( 4 ) and a bead ( 8 ) behind and adjacent the heel zone, said bead completely or partially following a U-shape and forming a side support for the heel of the wearer. The sole is flexible about at least two slightly curved bending lines ( 12,14 ), which are inclined relative to the longitudinal axis ( 10 ) of the sole, said lines being defined by channels or grooves ( 12,14 ) in the sole material. The bending lines do not intersect each other and their cavities face away from each other. The sole ( 1 ) has a particularly elastic portion ( 16 ) of a hand-like shape with at least two finger-shaped zones ( 18 a ,18 b ,18 c) pointing towards the toe end ( 30 ) of the midsole. As a result the shoe midsole offers a considerable degree of flexibility during the wearer's walking motion. More readily than known it conforms to the organic tissue of the wearer's foot in motion such that the shoe, of which the sole is to be part, is particularly comfortable to use for walking.
