Shoe insert pad

Abstract

A shoe insert pad is disclosed. The shoe insert pad includes a first planar surface and a second planar surface, wherein the first and second planar surfaces are defined by a shoe insert pad, comprising: a first planar surface; a second planar surface; and an edge defining the first planar surface and second planar surface substantially in the shape of a human foot; wherein the shoe insert pad is formed of a polyethylene vinyl acetate material having a density between 8 and 9 pounds per cubic foot.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to insert pads for shoes, and in particular to a foam shoe insert that is long lasting and provides increased comfort. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Over time, the kinetic force of daily walking plus just standing and shifting one's weight from one foot to the other places the human frame into a compromising position. The human frame is referred to here as the “carriage system” The carriage system is comprised of the soft pads of the heels and soles of the feet, hips, lower back, spine, knee joints, arches, toes, small bones and ankles. As a result without any kind of long term protection the carriage system must go through a constant ritual of collapse and repair. This quite naturally contributes to the aging process of this system and to the early break down of weak points within the system due to personal genetics. Also persons who must work while constantly on their feet can suffer possible random long term injurie...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0013] It is an object of the present invention to provide a shoe insert pad that provides comfortable support for the carriage system of a human body.

[0014] It is a further object of the present invention to provide a shoe insert pad that has a relatively high useful life.

[0015] It is a further object of the present invention to provide a shoe insert pad that can reduce the expense of costly shoe replacement and / or frequent shoe repair.

[0016] It is yet a further object of the present invention to provide a shoe insert pad that can be custom cut to the foot size of a wearer and one that when subjected to heat and pressure applied by the foot, conforms to the topographical contours of the foot, and sustains such, even after prolonged applied usage.

[0018] In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, a novel shoe insert pad providing increased comfort and an extended useful life is provided. The novel shoe insert pad includes a first planar surface, a second planar surface, and an edge defining the first planar surface and second planar surface substantially in the shape of a human foot, wherein the shoe insert pad is formed of a polyethylene vinyl acetate material having a density between 8 and 9 pounds per cubic foot.

[0019] In accordance with yet another aspect of the present invention, a novel shoe insert pad providing for ample protection for shoe heels, soles and threads so as to reduce the expense of costly shoe replacement and / or frequent shoe repair is provided. The novel shoe insert pad includes a first planar surface, a second planar surface, and an edge defining the first planar surface and second planar surface substantially in the shape of a human foot, wherein the shoe insert pad is formed of a polyethylene vinyl acetate material having a density between 8 and 9 pounds per cubic foot.

Problems solved by technology

As a result without any kind of long term protection the carriage system must go through a constant ritual of collapse and repair.

Also persons who must work while constantly on their feet can suffer possible random long term injuries to parts of the carriage system. when the spine itself is the affected part the end results can be far reaching.

The problem with many of these products is that they lose their resilience early on and cease to offer effective resistance to impact providing only limited support to the carriage system in the long term.

Additionally, some products can be very expensive.
