Latest Patent Applications

Xiao Jun's notable patent application is titled "Article of Footwear Having Increased Torsional Stiffness." This innovative shoe design comprises a sole, an upper secured to the sole, and a welt. The welt is a separate piece from the sole and upper, positioned adjacent to both and secured to at least one of them. The sole features a 3-D printed structure made up of a plurality of interconnected cells. Each cell is connected to at least one adjacent cell, creating a unique design. The shoe boasts a torsional stiffness that is at least 100% greater than that of a first comparison shoe, which is identical in design but lacks a welt. The torsional stiffness is defined as the torque required to rotate the heel-widest portion ten degrees from an un-torqued condition while the ball-widest portion remains stationary.

Conclusion

Xiao Jun's innovative approach to footwear design highlights her potential to impact the industry significantly. Her focus on increasing torsional stiffness in shoes represents a meaningful advancement in performance and comfort.
