Embodiment Construction

[0052] see first figure 1 , the sole shown in the accompanying drawings is generally indicated as 1. In the preferred and illustrated embodiment, sole 1 represents a midsole sandwiched between an upper sole and an outer sole. The sole 1 comprises five elongated elements 2a-e arranged longitudinally along the horizontal plane of the sole. The elongate members 2a-e comprise thin strips of non-elastic material secured to the sole 1 at a point 3 corresponding to the anteromedial area of ​​the heel knuckle and extending forwardly along the sole towards the front of the foot in a generally parallel manner. As the elongated members extend forwardly beyond the center of the sole, they diverge towards their final anchorage points 5a-e at the base of the toes. The elongate members 2a-e are secured to the sole 1 by molding at the anchor points 3 and 5a-e, so that they have a certain degree of freedom of movement between their anchor points relative to the surrounding structure of the s...

Abstract

A sole adapted to provide improved leverage during the toe-off stage of gait comprises elongate elements (2a-e) along the horizontal surface of the sole. The elongate elements (2a-e) are adapted to tauten in response to longitudinal forces on the sole, increasing the rigidity of the midsection of the sole and providing effective propulsive assistance to the athlete.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the manufacture and construction of soles and sports shoes with such soles. In particular, the present invention relates to a shoe sole having improved performance by providing improved leverage during the toe-off gait phase. Background technique [0002] Athletic shoes have been developed to minimize the negative impact of the foot out of its natural environment. However, to date these shoe designs have not been able to assist the foot in its natural performance and improve gait. [0003] The plantar fascia is a bundle of fibrous connective tissue that runs along the sole of the foot. The human plantar fascia originates in the anterior-medial aspect of the heel tubercle and bifurcates medially and laterally as it progresses anteriorly toward the front of the foot. Next, the fascia divides into 5 bundles in the plantar region and continues forward toward the 5 toes. As a fascicle near the metatarsal head, they divid...
