[0033] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0034] The following describes in detail, through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the overall structure, working principle, and technical effects of the shoe sole and shoe for relieving foot fatigue provided by this utility model.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This invention provides a sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue, applied to shoes. Through the embedded support member 400, it can provide effective arch support and cushioning, relieving fatigue and effectively protecting foot health. This shoe can be an athletic shoe, casual shoe, or hiking shoe, etc., and its structure specifically includes an upper and a sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue. The upper is connected to the sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue.

[0036] The shoe sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue includes an insole 100, an outsole 200, a sidewall 300, and a support member 400. The outsole 200 contacts the ground, the insole 100 contacts the foot, and the sidewall 300 connects the insole 100 and the outsole 200. The support member 400 is embedded in the sidewall 300 at a position corresponding to the arch of the foot, providing precise arch support, improving stability, relieving foot fatigue, and effectively protecting foot health.

[0037] Based on the above, the support member 400 includes a body 410, a first extension 420 and a second extension 430, and the first extension 420 and the second extension 430 are respectively connected to both sides of the body 410 and extend toward the side wall 300 for the position corresponding to the ball of the foot and the heel, so as to distribute pressure to the side wall 300 for the position corresponding to the ball of the foot and the heel, improve balance, further enhance the stability of the arch of the foot, and extend the service life of the sole.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, to further enhance the comfort and support of the arch, the body 410 extends in the thickness direction of the sole 10, which is used to relieve foot fatigue. It is understood that this design provides more even and stable support, and also helps to distribute foot pressure, improving overall stability and durability.

[0039] In some alternative embodiments, the support member 400 is made of TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane). Due to the high hardness and rigidity of TPU, the support member 400 not only improves stability but also prevents excessive twisting of the foot during exercise, thereby reducing the risk of sprains. Furthermore, since the support member 400 is embedded in the sidewall 300 and in the width direction of the sole, it also enhances the anti-rollover function of the sole.

[0040] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 The sidewalls 300 extend upward on both sides of the sole 10, which is used to relieve foot fatigue, to form a first protective part 310, so as to further reduce the risk of rollover during exercise.

[0041] Building upon the above, the sidewall 300 extends upward on one side of the sole 10, which is designed to alleviate foot fatigue, to form a second protective portion 330. This second protective portion 330 connects to the first protective portion 310 and serves to protect the heel. It should be noted that the second protective portion 330 stabilizes the heel and reduces heel movement, thereby providing a stable foundation for the user's entire foot and helping the arch maintain its normal shape and provide support.

[0042] Additionally, it should be noted that the second protective layer 330 better conforms to the contour of the heel, improving the shoe's fit around the foot and preventing heel slippage. It also enhances the anti-spine performance of the sole, increasing wearing comfort and safety.

[0043] Furthermore, the first protective part 310 is provided with multiple linear grooves 311 recessed at intervals along the thickness direction of the sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue. It is understood that the design of multiple linear grooves 311 can increase the flexibility and bending performance of the sole. In particular, the sole can better adapt to the bending and stretching of the foot during movement in the part corresponding to the arch, reducing discomfort caused by excessive rigidity, while also helping to distribute pressure to a certain extent.

[0044] To effectively absorb and disperse the impact force on the user's feet during exercise and reduce damage to the feet and knees, the sidewall 300 is provided with multiple shock-absorbing blocks 350 at intervals along the length of the sole 10 used to relieve foot fatigue. In addition, the shock-absorbing blocks 350 located under the support member 400 can maintain the shape of the sole when subjected to force, providing reliable support for the arch of the foot, helping to maintain the normal physiological shape of the arch, and reducing the risk of arch collapse.

[0045] Please see Figure 2 To improve the durability of the sole in high-wear areas, extend the lifespan of the shoe, and provide better grip and stability, the sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue also includes a first abrasion-resistant patch 500, which is attached to the outsole 200 at a position corresponding to the ball of the foot. Correspondingly, the sole 10 for relieving foot fatigue also includes a second abrasion-resistant patch 600, which is attached to the outsole 200 at a position corresponding to the heel. Optionally, both the first abrasion-resistant patch 500 and the second abrasion-resistant patch 600 are made of rubber.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, the end of the first abrasion-resistant patch 500 away from the second abrasion-resistant patch 600 is curved upward to form a forward-curved structure 550. Since the forward-curved structure 550 is located on the front side of the sole, it can effectively resist the impact of external forces, play a transitional cushioning role, and protect the toes.

[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, the end of the second abrasion-resistant patch 600 furthest from the first abrasion-resistant patch 500 also curves upward at a certain angle along with the outsole 200. It should be noted that this design guides the foot's trajectory during walking or running, making the gait more biomechanically sound, reducing the risk of injury due to abnormal gait, improving exercise efficiency, and lowering the likelihood of sports injuries. In particular, upon heel strike, this upward curve disperses pressure, preventing excessive localized pressure and distributing it evenly across the entire heel area, thereby reducing localized wear and foot fatigue.

[0048] In addition, the first wear-resistant patch 500 includes a first anti-slip portion 510 and a second anti-slip portion 530 connected to each other. The first anti-slip portion 510 is located away from the second wear-resistant patch 600 and has toothed grooves 710 thereon to prevent forward thrust; while the second anti-slip portion 530 is located close to the second wear-resistant patch 600 and has multiple anti-slip blocks 730 thereon to provide stable grip.

[0049] Similarly, the second wear-resistant patch 600 also includes a third anti-slip portion 610 and a fourth anti-slip portion 630 that are interconnected. The fourth anti-slip portion 630 is located away from the first wear-resistant patch 500 and has toothed grooves 710 thereon to prevent backward tilting; while the third anti-slip portion 610 is located close to the first wear-resistant patch 500 and has multiple anti-slip blocks 730 thereon to provide stable grip.

[0050] Understandably, the anti-slip blocks 730 on the second anti-slip section 530 and the third anti-slip section 610, with their different tread depths and shapes, can further withstand the frequent friction and compression during daily walking and high-intensity outdoor activities, effectively delaying wear, extending the lifespan of the sole, and maintaining long-term good performance. For example, on flat asphalt roads, these anti-slip blocks 730 provide stable grip; on soft mud, they can embed themselves into the ground like anchor points, providing strong propulsion; and on rough gravel roads, they can also ensure good adhesion, adapting to various terrains and usage scenarios.

[0051] Please see Figure 3 The insole 100 has multiple grooves 110 recessed at positions corresponding to the ball of the foot, and these grooves 110 are spaced apart along the length of the sole 10 designed to relieve foot fatigue. Based on these grooves 110, the sole 10 designed to relieve foot fatigue can deform with the bending of the toes, avoiding difficulty in bending due to material buildup, thus achieving a labor-saving walking effect.

[0052] It's also worth noting that the insole (100), outsole (200), and sidewalls (300) feature a one-piece molded design and are made of MD material (microporous foam). Because MD material has excellent cushioning properties, it effectively absorbs ground impact, reducing shock to the feet, knees, and other joints during exercise, providing a comfortable feel and protecting the joints. Furthermore, MD material reduces the overall weight of the sole, decreasing the burden on the wearer during walking and exercise, and improving flexibility. Further details will not be elaborated here.

[0053] In summary, this utility model provides a shoe sole 10 and a shoe for relieving foot fatigue. The shoe sole 10 includes an insole 100, an outsole 200, a sidewall 300, and a support member 400. The outsole 200 is in contact with the ground, the insole 100 is in contact with the foot, and the sidewall 300 connects the insole 100 and the outsole 200. The support member 400 is embedded in the sidewall 300 at a position corresponding to the arch of the foot, providing precise arch support, improving stability, relieving foot fatigue, and effectively protecting foot health. Based on the above, the support member 400 includes a body 410, a first extension 420 and a second extension 430, and the first extension 420 and the second extension 430 are respectively connected to both sides of the body 410 and extend toward the side wall 300 for the position corresponding to the ball of the foot and the heel, so as to distribute pressure to the side wall 300 for the position corresponding to the ball of the foot and the heel, improve balance, further enhance the stability of the arch of the foot, and extend the service life of the sole.

[0054] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
