SHOES WEARABLE BY BENDING HEEL PARTS OF SHOES TO INSIDE OF THE SHOES

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide shoes wearable by bending heel parts of the shoes to the inside of the shoes that are wearable as sandals by trampling heel parts with heels and have a good foot comfort when a wearer steps on the heel parts without losing a shape of the heel parts.;SOLUTION: Shoes each include: a bottom part having a ground plane coming into contact with the ground; a body part formed to cover foot from a tiptoe to an instep thereof; a heel part formed to cover the heel of the foot, comprising two materials of an outer layer material and an inner layer material, and constituted by interposing a buffer material for absorbing impact and comprising a shape recovery material between the outer layer material and the inner layer material; and a bent part formed at a boundary line between the heel part and the body part. The heel part can be properly bent from the bent part to a first position positioned substantially vertical to the bottom part, and a second position positioned substantially horizontal to the bottom part. When the heel part is stepped on with the heel of the foot, the foot comfort is improved by the shock absorption of the buffer material, and is constituted so as not to lose a shape by the shape recovery force of the buffer material.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT
