Footwear system with readily interchangeable components

Abstract

A footwear with interchangeable components that includes, an interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper, an interchangeable mid-sole chassis, an interchangeable mid-sole foot bed interlocker, and an interchangeable lug-treading. The interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper is removably mounted to the interchangeable mid-sole foot chassis and interlocked with an interchangeable mid-sole interlocker so that interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper can be readily changed by user according to user preference. The interchangeable mid-sole chassis is removably mounted to the interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper and interlocked by the interchangeable mid-sole foot bed interlocker and interchangeable lug-treading so that the interchangeable mid-sole chassis can be readily changed by user according to user preference. The interchangeable mid-sole foot bed interlocker is removably mounted to both interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper and interchangeable mid-sole chassis so that the interchangeable mid-sole foot bed interlocker can be readily changed by user accordingly to user preference. And, the interchangeable lug-treading is removably mounted to the an interchangeable mid-chassis so that the interchangeable lug-treading can be readily changed by user according to user preference.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to footwear. More particularly, the present invention relates to footwear having interchangeable components such an interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper, an interchangeable mid-sole chassis, an interchangeable mid-sole interlocker, and an mid-sole interchangeable lug-treading system. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] In the field of footwear, wearers differ in individual tastes and physical requirements. Therefore there exists a need for people to customize their own footwear according to their individual needs. For example, individual persons prefer a wide range of styles and colors of footwear.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0022] A piece of footwear is designed by a user selecting an interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper, an interchangeable mid-sole chassis, an interchangeable mid-sole interlocker, and an interchangeable lug-treading from various options. The interchangeable mid-sole foot bed w / upper, an interchangeable mid-sole chassis, an interchangeable mid-sole interlocker, and an interchangeable lug-treading are then automatically selected based on the user's choice. The components are then assembled by fitting them together. The resulting shoe should prove lighter in weight, more durable and easier to repair.

[0040] Yet another feature of the present invention is that the entire footwear can be assembled, reassembled and disassembled in minutes which facilitates replacement of individual pans and requiring less space in luggage while traveling.

Problems solved by technology

Also, individual persons have unique physical characteristics and participate in different types of activities, which could cause footwear to wear in different places.

These different styles still may not fit every person's needs and tastes.
