Benefits of technology
The present invention discusses a way to attach a fashion design attachment to a shoe without needing to stitch or buckle it on. The attachment is placed on a strip of material that runs from the ankle to the toe of the shoe, which prevents the attachment from moving or getting crimped when walking. This strip of material is called a shoe display strip. The invention improves the way this attachment is attached to the shoe display strip, making it easier and less expensive to make. The attachment can be directly attached to the shoe display strip, eliminating the need for a protective pouch or showcase. The invention also relates to a spray-on adhesive re-tackifying system that can be used to extended the life of the fashion design attachment.
Problems solved by technology
While there have been efforts in the past related to personalization by addition of decorative art on shoes, many of such efforts have been very limited in terms of amount of personalization which could be applied.
