[0015] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0016] In the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0017] As shown in the accompanying drawings Figure 1As shown, an environmentally friendly degradable shoe, comprising a sole 3, a shoe upper cloth 9 in the shape of a shoe upper is fixedly connected to the top of the sole 3, the head end of the shoe upper cloth 9 is covered and fixed with a shoe circumference 6, the shoe circumference 6 is fixedly connected with at least two shoe circumference decorative strips 61, the shoe circumference decorative strips 61 extend from front to back on the outer surface of the shoe upper cloth 9, and the shoe circumference decorative strips 61 form holes exposing the shoe upper cloth 9; the middle part of the outer side of the shoe upper cloth 9 is covered with a front upper 4 and a middle upper 5 from front to back, the shoe circumference decorative strips 61 and the front upper 4 form holes exposing the shoe upper cloth 9, the middle upper 5 and the front upper 4 form holes exposing the shoe upper cloth 9, and the rear end of the shoe upper cloth 9 forms a shoe cylinder, the outer middle and lower part of the shoe cylinder is fixedly connected with a heel 7, the heel 7 extends from back to front and is fixedly connected with the front upper 4 and the middle upper 5 respectively, the front upper 4 extends forward and is fixedly connected with the shoe circumference 6, the top of the shoe upper cloth 9 is fixedly connected with a shoe tongue 8, the shoe upper cloth 9 is made of biodegradable fabric 2, the sole 3, the front upper 4, the middle upper 5, the shoe circumference 6, the shoe circumference decorative strips 61 and the heel 7 are made of degradable leather 1, the shoe tongue 8 is a structure fixed by two layers of biodegradable fabric 2 and degradable leather 1, and the outer surface of the biodegradable fabric 2 and the degradable leather 1 is provided with a degradable coating.

[0018] Further, the biodegradable fabric 2 is made of polylactic acid fiber, which is made of corn starch or wheat, etc., through fermentation to convert into lactic acid, and then through polymerization and spinning process to manufacture biodegradable polylactic acid fiber yarn; especially corn fiber yarn, which is an environmentally friendly synthetic fiber, using corn, wheat and other starch as raw material, through fermentation to convert into lactic acid, and then through polymerization and spinning to make. This fiber is also called polylactic acid fiber or PLA fiber. The main feature of corn fiber is biodegradability, its waste can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water under the action of microorganisms in soil and seawater, so it will not pollute the earth's environment. In addition, since its initial raw material is starch, its regeneration cycle is relatively short, about one to two years, which helps to reduce the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere, and it can be quickly degraded by biological enzymes, environmentally friendly, and can be completely degraded by microorganisms in nature after use, finally generating carbon dioxide and water, without polluting the environment.

[0019] Further, the degradable leather 1 is natural leather, which is mainly divided into pig leather, cow leather, sheep leather, horse leather, donkey leather and kangaroo leather according to its species, and a small amount of fish leather, reptile leather, amphibian leather and ostrich leather.

[0021] Further, the body of the tongue 8 is a biodegradable fabric 2, and a strip of degradable leather 1 is fixedly connected to the top middle of the biodegradable fabric 2, and the tail end of the degradable leather 1 extends to the tail end of the tongue 8. The strip of degradable leather 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the biodegradable fabric 2, and the purpose is to prevent the biodegradable fabric 2 from being easily stained when the hand pulls.

[0022] Further, the degradable coating is a polylactic acid (PLA) coating, which enriches the texture of the vamp material and can design different visual effects and textures.

[0023] Further, the inner bottom is arranged in the shoe formed by the vamp cloth 9 and the outsole 3, and the inner bottom is a paper midsole material, which is a prior art, specifically a paper midsole cloth / plate, and generally has good air permeability, flexibility and durability. These characteristics make it perform outstandingly in many fields. The paper material makes the cloth light and easy to process, and the structure of the midsole cloth provides good support and stability, so as to meet the sweat absorption and moisture absorption of the shoe cavity in daily wear, and can meet the requirement that the cloth is not torn seriously after 400 rotations.
