Abstract

A multi-function shoe pad is composed of a main body for a user's human sole to tread. The main body includes a hollow bulge integrally protruding toward a top side thereof and from a bottom side in such way that a chamber is formed below the hollow bulge. The chamber is deformable between a compressed state and an uncompressed state, so the hot air inside the chamber can exhaust and the cold air can be sucked into the chamber to enhance the air convection inside the user's shoe. Besides, the hollow bulge can allow the user's foot to tightly cling to the shoe to enable the shoe pad to be skidproof.
