Benefits of technology

[0006] It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a soccer shoe capable of improving the spin and curve of a ball by forming protrusions on the shoe upper contacting with the ball.
[0007] According to the present invention, there is provided a soccer shoe comprising a sole and a shoe upper, characterized in that a plurality of protrusions are formed on an inner side area of a toe portion and an outer side area of the toe portion, each protrusion embedding therein an elastic wedge-shaped object, to thereby increase a spin power of a soccer ball.

Problems solved by technology

However, it is not easy for a player to make the ball make an acute curve.
In order to make the ball curve, the player often strikes the ball with the foot distorted, which sometimes causes the kick to be inaccurate or even causes the ankle to break.
Though the sewed thread 12 might slightly contribute to preventing the ball from slipping on the surface 11, it may not be sufficient for the thread to contribute to making the ball spin and curve.

Embodiment Construction

[0016] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] FIG. 2 illustrates an exterior view of an inventive soccer shoe. FIG. 3 depicts a magnified view of cross section of one side the inventive soccer shoe.

[0018] The inventive shoe 20 has a shoe upper 21 and a sole 22. On the shoe upper 21, protrusions 23 are formed in almost parallel in step-like pattern. The protrusions 23 are formed at locations where players most often use their foot for handling and kicking a ball, i.e., the inner and outer side area of the toe portion of the shoe upper 21. The protrusions 23 are formed for the purpose of improving the spin, curve and speed of the ball. In order to efficiently achieve these goals, the cross section of each protrusion 23 is wedge-shaped as shown in FIG. 3. The wedge-shaped protrusions 23 give elasticity to the surface of the shoe upper 21 the instant when the shoe 20 impacts a ball.

Abstract

A soccer shoe improving the spin of a ball is provided. The soccer shoe comprises a sole and a shoe upper, and includes thereon a plurality of protrusions formed on an inner side area of a toe portion and an outer side area of the toe portion, each protrusion embedding therein an elastic wedge-shaped object, to thereby increase a spinning power of a soccer ball.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a soccer shoe, and more particularly, to a soccer shoe capable of improving the spin and curve of a ball by forming protrusions on the shoe upper thereon contacting with the ball.[0002] Soccer is a kind of sports that most of shooting, dribbling and passing are made by foot. Therefore, shoes that players wear play especially high role in performance of the players.[0003] That is, when a player makes a dribble oneself, makes a pass to a teammate or makes a shooting, it is often beneficial to give more spin to a ball when kicked, thereby creating more swerve or arc to the flight of the ball. Especially when a player tries passing, centering or shooting, swerve of the ball makes them easier, more accurate and even more workable. For instance, if a player makes the ball swerve, the ball may arc past opposing players on its way to an opposing player's goal.[0004] However, it is not easy for a player to make the ball make an acute curve. In order to...
