Benefits of technology

[0007] The main objective of the present invention is to provide a ventilated shoe-pad that gives extended comfort and extends the useful life of the shoe pad.
[0009] The shoe-pad body is EVA material, and the soft ventilated bodies in the shoe-pad body breathe and absorb sweat. Consequently, the user's feet stay dry and comfortable, and the ventilated shoe-pad will not mildew easily and will not give off an offensive odor. The ventilated shoe-pad improves the extended comfort and practical durability of shoe-pads.

Problems solved by technology

Although EVA material is flexible and provides support, it does not breathe and does not readily absorb sweat.
After wearing shoes with EVA shoe-pads even for a short period of time, a user's feet will feel hot and sweaty because the shoe pads do not breathe, mildew grows oil the shoe-pads, and the shoe-pads give off an offensive odor.
All of the above restrict the practicability and comfort of the shoe-pads.

Abstract

A ventilated shoe-pad has a shoe-pad body, a ventilated layer and a heel cup. The shoe-pad body is a spongy material and has a heel, a top, a bottom, multiple holes, multiple soft ventilated bodies and a protective lip. The multiple holes are formed separately in the shoe-pad body. The soft ventilated bodies are formed from foaming emulsion respectively inside the holes. The protective lip is formed around and extends up from the heel. The ventilated layer is attached to the top of the shoe-pad body. The heel cup is attached to the bottom of the shoe-pad body around the heel. The shoe-pad body is flexible, and the ventilated bodies absorb sweat and resist the formation of mildew.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a ventilated shoe-pad, especially to a shoe-pad with multiple soft ventilated bodies that are ventilated and sweat-absorbable and have mildew-resistant properties. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004] Shoe-pads are make of flexible materials to provide appropriate flexibility and support inside shoes. The shoe-pads can improve comfort of the shoes and protect the feet from injury. [0005] Conventional shoe-pads are made of EVA material because the material is flexible and cheaper. Although EVA material is flexible and provides support, it does not breathe and does not readily absorb sweat. After wearing shoes with EVA shoe-pads even for a short period of time, a user's feet will feel hot and sweaty because the shoe pads do not breathe, mildew grows oil the shoe-pads, and the shoe-pads give off an offensive odor. All of the above restrict the practicability and comfort of the sh...
