AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention relates to a shoe with a special design for reducing humidity and odor inside. It includes a package containing a small amount of a substance called a microporous desiccant material which absorbs moisture from the air and removes it through tiny holes in its structure. This helps keep the shoe dry and free of unpleasant odors. Additionally, there are other materials present in the package that can further help reduce or mask any remaining odors. Overall, this technology makes shoes more comfortable and provides better protection against dampness and stench.

Problems solved by technology

Athletiic shoes often get wet and smelly when used. To solve this problem, people created shoe inserts that can be placed inside the shoe to absorb moisture and remove odor. These inserts usually contain baking soda and activated charcoal to make them work better. However, they are heavy and sometimes lose their effectiveness with continued usage.
