The shoeincludes the outer solebrought in contact with the road surface, the midsolearranged on the outer sole, and the uppercovering the foot from the upper side. The midsoleincludes at the middle foot portion the cut-out portionand the like opened to the outside and closed at the middle portion in the width direction.

Shoe

In the present invention, a shoe sole member is composed of a foam that has a non-foamed film having a thickness of 50 μm or more on a lateral surface of the foam constituting at least a part of an outer peripheral surface of the shoe sole, in order to provide the shoe sole member composed of the foam having both stiffness and shock absorbing properties and provide a shoe excellent in shock absorbing properties.

Shoe sole member and shoe

A shoe sole includes a rear bottom surface part and a toe portion. The rear bottom surface part is formed to extend from a rearfoot portion to a midfoot portion and, when the shoe sole is placed on a flat virtual surface, the rear bottom surface part is in contact with the virtual surface. A height of the toe portion from the virtual surface is set to 170% or greater and 250% or less with respect to a thickness dimension in the rear bottom surface part.

Shoe sole and shoe

A fastening structure of the present upper includes: an upper that defines a left eyelet row and a right eyelet row arranged along a longitudinal direction of a shoe; and a shoelace inserted through eyelets of the left and right eyelet rows, wherein: the left and right eyelet rows each at least include a first eyelet on a tip side, and a second eyelet, a third eyelet and a fourth eyelet that are arranged in this order from the first eyelet toward a posterior side; Dis defined as a first average interval between eyelets; Dis defined as a second average interval; Dis defined as a third average interval; and Expressions (1) and (10) below are satisfied:&#x2003;&#x2003;(1)1.0*()&#x3e;&#x3e;0.6*()&#x2003;&#x2003;(10).

Fastening structure of upper of shoe and shoe

A midsole includes an upper layer and a lower layer made of a foamed material; the upper layer is a low-hardness foamed material; the lower layer is a high-hardness foamed material; the low-hardness foamed material of the upper layer is a low-hardness, high-resilience material that has a higher specific gravity than the high-hardness foamed material, that has a low hardness that is lower than the hardness of the high-hardness foamed material, and that has a higher speed at which to recover to an original shape after being deformed than that of the high-hardness foamed material.

Shoe sole including laminate-structured midsole

Provided is a shoe sole, wherein ventilation grooves recessed in the thickness direction of the shoe sole are formed in the upper surface part, the shoe sole has a forefoot portion that has an air intake port formed in at least one of a medial side wall and a lateral side wall in the side wall part to be in communication with the ventilation grooves and draw air from outside into the ventilation grooves, the shoe sole has a midfoot portion that has an air outlet port formed in at least one of the medial side wall and the lateral side wall to be in communication with the air intake port through the ventilation grooves and discharge air in the ventilation groove to the outside, and at least a part of the ventilation grooves constitutes an air intake groove extending obliquely rearward from the air intake port.

Shoe sole, and shoe including shoe sole

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.

Shoe upper

An object of the present invention is to provide a shoe having excellent comfort. The present invention provides a shoe including an upper material that is partially or fully formed of a fiber sheet, wherein the fiber sheet exhibits specific tensile characteristics at least in one direction.

A shoe sole includes an outsole having a contact surface, and a midsole arranged over the outsole, contacting with the outsole. The midsole defines a tunnel-shaped or groove-shaped hollow extending in a front-rear direction of a shoe. At least a part of the hollow is formed in a tunnel shape.

Shoe sole

Provided is a shock absorber formed by a resin composition and provided in a shoe, the shock absorber satisfying all formulas (1) to (4) below when changes in storage elastic modulus between 20&#xb0; C. to 50&#xb0; C. are linearly approximated by a least-squares method: Y=aX+b . . . (1); &#x2212;0.1&#x2264;a&#x2264;&#x2212;0.02 . . . (2); 1.0&#x2264;b&#x2264;16.0 . . . (3); and R&#x2265;0.75 . . . (4), where X represents a temperature (unit: &#xb0; C.) of the shock absorber, Y represents a storage elastic modulus of the shock absorber, and R represents a correlation coefficient in the least-squares method.

Shock absorber and shoe sole

A plurality of rubber-made medial cleats project from a base surface of an outsole in a medial portion of a forefoot portion, and a plurality of rubber-made lateral cleats project from the base surface of the outsole in a lateral portion of the forefoot portion, wherein a first engaging surface of each of the medial cleats faces toward a posterior direction or an obliquely posterior direction and a second engaging surface of each of the lateral cleats faces toward an anterior direction or an obliquely anterior direction.

Shoe sole with improved grip capacity

A flexible member includes a reinforced area reinforced by first and second reinforcement portions, wherein: the area is defined by the posterior edge of a first reinforcement portion and the anterior edge of a second reinforcement portion; the first and second reinforcement portions are smoothly continuous with each other without gaps; the perimeter of the area is completely surrounded by the first and second reinforcement portions; the virtual first center line of the area extends obliquely forward and upward; and the angle formed between the first center line and the tread surface of the sole is about 40&#xb0; to 55&#xb0;.

Shoe having upper and sole

A low rigidity region being more stretchable and bendable than a high rigidity region, includes a main portion, and a medial first flexible portion and a lateral first flexible portion extending from the main portion in the medial and lateral directions. The main portion covers a portion of the area from the shaft of the first proximal phalanx to the shaft of the second proximal phalanx, the medial first flexible portion covers a portion of the area from the shaft of the first proximal phalanx to the head of the first metatarsal bone, and the lateral first flexible portion extends to the lateral side of the foot from the main portion. When pushing off the foot onto the medial/lateral side in a diagonally forward direction, the upper bends along the diagonal bend lines. Therefore, the diagonal portions and the main portion serve as the bend lines.
