Benefits of technology

The present invention aims to provide running shoes that overcome the shortcomings of prior art designs. The new design prevents additional stress and strain on the wearer's lower extremities due to adverse resistance caused by the shoe's sole at the metatarsophalangeal joint area. This results in a more comfortable and efficient shoe for runners.

Problems solved by technology

A problem existing with conventional athletic shoes is that their design fails to take into account that different shock loads are applied to different areas of the sole of the foot of a participant during various forms of athletic endeavours, as for example during running, playing basketball, tennis, etc.
Athletic shoe constructions to date, however, have not included any separate shock-absorbing elements in those areas of the sole portions of the shoes subject to greater shock loads where the shock-absorbing properties of the elements at those areas differ from any shock-absorbing properties of the remaining areas of the sole portions.
For example, the pressure points on the foot may be different for different individuals and hence a common design might not work for everyone.

Embodiment Construction

[0023]In the following description of the embodiments of the invention, reference is made to the accompanying drawings that form a part hereof, and in which are shown by way of illustration specific embodiments in which the invention may be practised. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, and it is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limited sense.

[0024]In the present disclosure, Rail Cushion Tracts are moulded rubber tracts from acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA) also called acrylic styrene-acrylonitrile, which is a thermoplastic developed as an alternative to acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). The advantage of ASA in comparison to ABS is that ASA is much more weather resistant. Herein, the acrylate rubber differs from the b...

Abstract

The present invention is referred to as a Lego-style system for football or other athletic sports footwear. The Lego style system may join, snap, combine, and connect to form limitless options based on individual footing profiles. The tracking system may snap to the railing tracts molded underneath the athletic shoe that they utilize.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 62 / 930,578, filed May 11, 2019, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates generally to sporting equipment. More particularly, the present invention is related to shoes with specially designed shoes for improving the stability, performance, and durability of the shoes.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]A problem existing with conventional athletic shoes is that their design fails to take into account that different shock loads are applied to different areas of the sole of the foot of a participant during various forms of athletic endeavours, as for example during running, playing basketball, tennis, etc. It is known that in most athletic endeavours the heel and forefoot areas of the foot receive more intense shock loads than other areas of the foot including the arch and toe areas. For example, in runni...
