Abstract

This invention relates to a highly engineered shoe sole developed to fit the natural structure of the human foot and walking gait. By inventing a shoe sole with the heightened outer part of the shoe heels and lowered on the inner part of the front portion of the sole, the shoe enables the triple-time stepping by maintaining his / her feet and the ankle aligned with the shoes when standing or walking. Also, by naturally shifting the center of the body inwards from the outer part of the shoes, thus distributing the body weight evenly to the entire area of the shoe soles, the shoes reduce fatigue on the foot by absorbing and mitigating the impact on the foot that supports the body weight, which prevents and corrects deformed walking habits such as out-toed gaits and also prevents slipping while walking.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a highly engineered shoe sole developed to fit the natural structure of the human foot and walking. To be more specific, by improving the shape of the bottom part of the sole, the shoe naturally shifts the center of the body inwards from the outside of the shoe area, disperses the weight distribution evenly to the entire area of the shoe soles, thus absorbs and mitigates the impact on the foot that supports the body weight while enabling the triple-time stepping which is most idealistic walking method for our body, and also preventing and correcting deformation of our vertebra that reduces fatigue from walking and enhances physical growth, at the same time that corrects out-toed gaits into a proper walking habit.

Embodiment Construction

[0034]The present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which preferred embodiments of the invention are shown.

[0035]This invention relates to a shoe sole that naturally disperses the center of the body from the outside of the shoe bottom to the inner areas that absorbs and mitigates the impact when walking, by improving the design of the shoe sole bottom.

[0036]The shoe sole refers to the part of the shoe that directly contacts the ground, and the shoe sole is variously formed according to each of its type.

[0037]For example, the bottom of leather shoes consists of the front portion and the staged rear portion which is heightened to form the shoe heel, whereas the bottom of shoes such as athletic shoes have are flattened from the front portion to the rear portion of the shoes.

[0038]In cases for the bottom of the athletic shoes, it is common that the surface of the shoe bottoms are embossed to prevent slipping.
