A shoe sole includes a sole body, and a reinforcing structure portion made up of a first reinforcing member and a second reinforcing member that are made of different members from each other. The first reinforcing member includes a first bar, and the second reinforcing member includes a second bar. The first bar is located on a medial foot side from the second bar. A portion of the first bar disposed in a midfoot portion extends along an oblique direction crossing both a front-rear direction and a left-right direction, and a portion of the second bar disposed in the midfoot portion extends crossing the left-right direction. The portion of the first bar disposed in the midfoot portion and the portion of the second bar disposed in the midfoot portion are located at least in part with a distance therebetween.

Shoe sole and shoe

A shoeincludes a twist allowance partand a medial reinforcement member(bend restraining part). The twist allowance partis provided in a medial part of a midfoot portion in a shoe soleserving as a bottom portion and allows medial twisting of the heel side with respect to the toe side. The medial reinforcement memberis disposed on the twist allowance partand restrains upward bending of the heel side in the medial part.

Shoe

A shoe sole includes a midsole and an outsole. The midsole has a first protruding portion at a location on a medial foot side and a rear end side of the shoe sole, and the outsole has a first cover portion covering the first protruding portion. The first cover portion includes a first bottom wall portion prescribing a ground contact surface, and a first side wall portion erected from a peripheral edge of the first bottom wall portion on the medial foot side. A first ridgeline that is a boundary between the first bottom wall portion and the first side wall portion is located so as to separate from a first outline of the first cover portion prescribed by the first side wall portion from a front side specific location toward a rear side specific location, in a case when seen along a normal direction of the ground contact surface.

A shoe is provided with a first forming portion provided on a medial side and a second forming portion provided on a lateral side across a central opening formed forward from a foot insertion portion of an upper on each of which a string passing portion is formed; a first support member a tip end of which is fixed to the second forming portion, including a first string passing structure provided at the tip end, and extending downward so as to abut a medial side of a foot; a second support member a tip end of which is fixed to the first forming portion, including a second string passing structure provided at the tip end, and extending downward so as to abut a lateral side of the foot; and a shoelace which passes through the string passing portion and continuously passes through the first and second string passing structures.

A reinforcement structure is disposed on a midsole of a shoe. A first bar extends from a first point in a medial side of the midsole to a second point in the medial side of the midsole. The second point is closer to a toe of the shoe than the first point. A second bar extends from a third point in the medial side of the midsole to a fourth point in a lateral side of the midsole. The fourth point being closer to the toe of the shoe than the third point. A third bar extending from a fifth point in the medial side of the midsole to a sixth point in the lateral side of the midsole. The sixth point being closer to the toe of the shoe than the fifth point. The third bar extending further toward the toe of the shoe than the second bar.

Shoe sole structure with reinforcement device

Described is sports upper clothing which as an improved cooling function and which includes a front body, a back body, and sleeves. In embodiments, each sleeve has a front portion located on a same side as the front body and a back portion located on a same side as the back body. The back portion is made of a fabric having a breathability value and the front portion has breathability value that is greater than the breathability value of the back portion.
