Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of matching cycling shoes, and in particular relates to an external shoe that makes cycling shoes convenient for walking. Background Art

[0002] In cycling, using cycling shoes with locking pedals can reduce exertion and prevent slipping during pedaling or acceleration, which can cause falls. Therefore, cyclists and more professional cycling enthusiasts often use cycling shoes that match their pedals for competitions or cycling training.

[0003] On long bike rides, carrying a separate pair of walking shoes adds weight and is difficult to carry. However, due to the nature of cycling shoes, which have an upturned forefoot, are higher in the middle, lower around the perimeter, and lower at the heel, walking in them directly can lead to instability in the front of the foot, which can easily cause sprains. This high forefoot and low back sole structure also places increased stress on the arch, ankle, and Achilles tendon, compromising lower limb health. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The utility model provides an external shoe which makes it convenient to walk with cycling lock shoes.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved in the following manner: an external shoe that makes it convenient to walk with cycling shoes, comprising a shoe body, the shoe body including an internal space in which the cycling shoes can be placed and prevent the cycling shoes from falling out; a downward groove is provided on the upper surface of the sole of the shoe body, and the groove is used to accommodate the protrusion on the lower surface of the sole of the cycling shoes.

[0006] The shape of the upper surface of the sole of the shoe body corresponds to the shape of the lower surface of the sole of the cycling shoe.

[0007] The groove is arranged at a position of the sole of the shoe body corresponding to the forefoot close to the center of the shoe; the size of the groove is not less than the size of the protrusion at the corresponding position, and the depth of the groove is not less than the height of the protrusion.

[0008] The height of the upper surface of the sole of the shoe body gradually decreases from the front to the position of the groove; the height of the upper surface of the sole gradually decreases from the heel at the rear to the position of the groove at the front.

[0009] The sole of the shoe body includes a midsole and an outsole located below the midsole; the groove passes through the midsole and the outsole; the shoe body includes an upper connected to the sole, and an adjustable strap connected to the upper; the material of the outsole is rubber EVA double density.

[0010] Compared to the existing technology, the external shoe of the present invention can accommodate cycling shoes. When walking, the user can simply wear the external shoe over the cycling shoes without removing them. This eliminates the need to change shoes frequently, and the need to carry the cycling shoes with them when walking. The present invention provides recesses corresponding to the protrusions on the soles of the cycling shoes to accommodate the protrusions. This allows the majority of the lower surface of the cycling shoe's sole to contact the upper surface of the external shoe's sole, reducing the required internal space and increasing the comfort of wearing the external shoe.
