Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of footwear, and in particular to a casual shoe that is easy to wear. Background Technology
[0002] Casual shoes are a type of footwear characterized by a simple and comfortable design philosophy, designed to meet the needs of everyday wear. The concept, connotation, and function of casual shoes are closely related to this new lifestyle ideal.
[0003] In the prior art, casual shoes include a sole and an upper set on the sole. The upper has a tongue located on the instep of the foot, and shoelaces are crisscrossed on both sides of the tongue. After the wearer's foot is inserted into the upper, the tightness of the upper can be adjusted by tying and tightening the shoelaces, so that the upper fits the wearer's foot better and improves wearing comfort.
[0004] However, in these types of casual shoes, the tightness of the upper is adjusted by shoelaces. This means that the wearer needs to tie the shoelaces when putting on the shoes and loosen them when taking them off. In addition, if the shoelaces are not tied tightly enough, they are easy to come loose during walking or exercise, requiring the wearer to re-tie them, which is quite cumbersome. Therefore, further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To improve the ease of wearing casual shoes, this application provides an easy-to-wear casual shoe.
[0006] The present application provides a convenient and wearable casual shoe with the following technical solution:
[0007] A casual shoe that is easy to wear includes a sole and an upper disposed on the sole. The upper has an opening for the human foot to enter. A first elastic band is disposed on the surface of the upper on the instep. Multiple first elastic bands are disposed at intervals along the length of the upper. The first elastic bands are elastically disposed, and the two ends of the first elastic bands extend to the two side edges of the upper.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple elastic bands are arranged at intervals along the length of the shoe upper. The elasticity of the elastic bands helps the shoe upper surface fit the wearer's foot, improving wearing comfort and eliminating the need to repeatedly tie shoelaces, thus improving the convenience of wearing casual shoes.
[0009] Optionally, the shoe upper is provided with a first support piece on both sides of the arch of the human foot, and one side of the first support piece extends to the surface of the shoe upper at the heel of the human foot; the shoe upper is provided with a second elastic band on the surface of the instep of the human foot, the second elastic band is elastically configured, and the two ends of the second elastic band are respectively connected to the two first support pieces.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the first support piece and the second elastic band are used to support the sides of the wearer's foot, reducing the possibility of ankle sprains during walking or exercise. The elastic second elastic band between the two first support pieces allows the two first support pieces to better fit the wearer's foot, improving the support effect. On the other hand, the second elastic band can further improve the binding effect on the shoe upper, making the surface of the shoe upper fit the wearer's foot and improving wearing comfort.
[0011] Optionally, the upper of the shoe is provided with a limiting strip on the surface of the instep of the human foot. The two ends of the limiting strip extend along the length of the upper, and the surface of the limiting strip is provided with a limiting groove for the first elastic band to pass through.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a limiting groove is opened on the surface of the limiting strip to allow the first elastic band to pass through, thereby limiting the first elastic band to a certain extent and reducing the possibility of a large positional shift of the first elastic band during the wearer's walking or exercise, thus ensuring that the first elastic band maintains a good binding effect on the shoe upper.
[0013] Optionally, the upper of the shoe has ventilation holes on the surface of the instep that connect to the inside of the upper, and the first elastic band covers the ventilation holes.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the ventilation effect of the shoe upper is improved by setting the ventilation holes, reducing the possibility of stuffiness inside the shoe upper; the first elastic band covers the ventilation holes, reducing the possibility of foreign objects (sand or rainwater, etc.) falling into the shoe upper through the ventilation holes.
[0015] Optionally, multiple vent holes are provided, and the multiple vent holes are distributed on both sides of the limiting strip.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the first elastic band passes through the limiting groove of the limiting strip, and the limiting strip can raise the first elastic band, so that there is a gap between the part of the first elastic band near the limiting strip and the surface of the shoe upper, thereby improving the ventilation effect of the ventilation holes.
[0017] Optionally, the two opposite sidewalls of the limiting groove are provided with anti-detachment posts, and the peripheral wall of the anti-detachment post abuts against the outer surface of the first elastic band.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip post is set so that its peripheral wall abuts against the outer surface of the first elastic band, thereby further limiting the first elastic band, reducing the possibility that the first elastic band will come out of the limiting groove during the wearer's vigorous exercise, and improving the limiting effect of the first elastic band.
[0019] Optionally, each of the anti-detachment posts has a docking post at its free end, and the surface of the first elastic band has a docking groove for the docking post to be inserted. There are two docking grooves, which are arranged corresponding to the two docking posts. The two ends of the docking grooves extend along the length direction of the first elastic band.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting the docking post and inserting the docking post into the corresponding docking groove, the first elastic band is further limited, so that the first elastic band is kept in the limiting groove.
[0021] Optionally, the inner surface of the first elastic band is provided with an absorbent layer, which covers the air vents.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a water-absorbing layer, the water absorption effect of the first elastic band is improved, reducing the possibility of external rainwater entering the shoe upper through the ventilation holes.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. By setting the first elastic band, multiple elastic bands are arranged at intervals along the length of the shoe upper. The elasticity of the first elastic bands causes the surface of the shoe upper to conform to the wearer's foot, improving wearing comfort and eliminating the need to repeatedly tie shoelaces, thus improving the convenience of wearing casual shoes.
[0025] 2. With the addition of a first support piece and a second elastic band, the two first support pieces provide support to both sides of the wearer's foot, reducing the likelihood of ankle sprains during walking or exercise. The elastic second band between the two first support pieces allows the two first support pieces to better conform to the wearer's foot, improving support. Furthermore, the second elastic band further enhances the binding effect on the shoe upper, ensuring the surface of the upper conforms to the wearer's foot and improving wearing comfort.
[0026] 3. By setting a limiting strip, a limiting groove is opened on the surface of the limiting strip for the first elastic band to pass through, thereby playing a certain limiting effect on the first elastic band, reducing the possibility of a large positional shift of the first elastic band during the wearer's walking or exercise, and thus ensuring that the first elastic band maintains a good binding effect on the shoe upper.

Detailed Implementation
[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0034] Example 1:
[0035] This application discloses a casual shoe that is easy to wear.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 A casual shoe that is easy to wear includes a sole 1 and an upper 2. The upper 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the sole 1. The upper 2 has an opening 21 for the human foot to enter. A first pull strap 23 is fixedly installed on the surface of the upper 2 on the instep of the human foot, and a second pull strap 24 is fixedly installed on the surface of the upper 2 on the heel of the human foot. Both the first pull strap 23 and the second pull strap 24 are located at the edge of the opening 21. In this embodiment, both ends of the first pull strap 23 and both ends of the second pull strap 24 are fixedly installed on the surface of the upper 2 by sewing.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The upper 2 of the shoe is provided with a first elastic band 3 on the surface of the instep of the human foot. There are two first elastic bands 3, which are arranged at intervals along the length of the upper 2. The two ends of the first elastic bands 3 extend to the two side edges of the upper 2, and the two ends of the first elastic bands 3 are installed on the surface of the upper 2 by sewing. In this embodiment, both first elastic bands 3 are elastic to bind the surface of the upper 2.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the upper 2 is fixedly installed with first support pieces 4 on both sides of the arch of the foot. The two first support pieces 4 are fixedly installed on the surface of the upper 2 by adhesive bonding. One side of the first support piece 4 extends to the surface of the upper 2 at the heel of the foot. The upper 2 is installed with a second elastic band 5 on the instep of the foot. The second elastic band 5 is located between the two first elastic bands 3. The second elastic band 5 is elastic. The two ends of the second elastic band 5 are respectively sewn and fixed to the two first support pieces 4. The upper 2 is installed with a second support piece 7 on the heel of the foot. The second support piece 7 is fixedly installed on the surface of the upper 2 by adhesive bonding.
[0039] The implementation principle of Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows: by setting a first elastic band 3 and a second elastic band 5, the elasticity of the first elastic band 3 and the second elastic band 5 is used to drive the surface of the shoe upper 2 to fit the wearer's foot, thereby improving wearing comfort and eliminating the need for repeated tying of shoelaces when wearing casual shoes, thus improving the convenience of wearing casual shoes; the two ends of the second elastic band 5 are respectively connected to two first support pieces 4, thereby having a pulling effect on the two first support pieces 4, so that the two first support pieces 4 fit the wearer's foot better and improve the support effect.
[0040] Example 2:
[0041] This application discloses a casual shoe that is easy to wear.
[0042] Reference Figure 2 The difference between the wearable casual shoe disclosed in this application and Embodiment 1 is that:
[0043] In this embodiment, a limiting strip 6 is fixedly installed on the surface of the shoe upper 2 on the instep of the human foot. The number of limiting strips 6 corresponds to the number of first elastic bands 3. The two ends of the limiting strip 6 extend along the length direction of the shoe upper 2. A limiting groove 61 is provided on the surface of the limiting strip 6 for the first elastic band 3 to pass through.
[0044] Reference Figure 3 The upper 2 of the shoe has ventilation holes 22 on the surface of the instep of the human foot, which are connected to the inside of the upper 2. There are multiple ventilation holes 22, which are distributed on both sides of the limiting strip 6. The first elastic band 3 covers all the ventilation holes 22.
[0045] The implementation principle of Embodiment 2 of this application is as follows: multiple ventilation holes 22 are provided to improve the breathability of the shoe upper 2 and reduce the possibility of stuffiness inside the shoe upper 2; the first elastic band 3 covers the ventilation holes 22 to reduce the possibility of foreign objects (sand or rainwater, etc.) falling into the shoe upper 2 through the ventilation holes 22.
[0046] In addition, the setting of the limiting strip 6 can limit the first elastic band 3, reducing the possibility of a large positional shift of the first elasticity during the wearer's walking or exercise, thereby ensuring that the first elasticity maintains a good binding effect on the shoe upper 2. On the other hand, the limiting strip 6 can raise the first elastic band 3, so that there is a gap between the part of the first elastic band 3 near the limiting strip 6 and the surface of the shoe upper 2, thereby improving the breathability of the ventilation hole 22.
[0047] Example 3:
[0048] This application discloses a casual shoe that is easy to wear.
[0049] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 The difference between the wearable casual shoe disclosed in this application embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that:
[0050] In this embodiment, anti-detachment posts 62 are fixedly installed on both opposite sidewalls of the limiting groove 61. Both anti-detachment posts 62 are elastically arranged, and the peripheral walls of both anti-detachment posts 62 abut against the outer surface of the first elastic band 3. One end of the anti-detachment post 62 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 61. For ease of description, the other end of the anti-detachment post 62 is defined as the free end of the anti-detachment post 62. A docking post 63 is fixedly installed on the free end of each anti-detachment post 62.
[0051] The surface of the first elastic band 3 is provided with a docking groove 31. There are two docking grooves 31, which are corresponding to two docking posts 63. Each docking groove 31 is used for the corresponding docking post 63 to be inserted. The two ends of the docking groove 31 extend along the length direction of the first elastic band 3.
[0052] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 The inner surface of the first elastic band 3 is fixedly installed with a water-absorbing layer 32. There are two water-absorbing layers 32, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the limiting strip 6. The two water-absorbing layers 32 respectively cover the air vents 22 on both sides of the limiting strip 6. In this embodiment, the water-absorbing layer 32 is made of cotton cloth.
[0053] The implementation principle of Embodiment 3 of this application is as follows: by setting the anti-slip post 62 and the docking post 63, the first elastic band 3 is further limited, so that the first elastic band 3 can be kept in the limiting groove 61, reducing the possibility that the first elastic band 3 will be separated from the limiting groove 61 when the wearer is exercising vigorously; in addition, by setting two docking posts 63, which are respectively inserted into the two docking grooves 31 of the first elastic band 3, the first elastic band 3 can be kept in the unfolded state, reducing the possibility of the first elastic band 3 wrinkling, thereby improving the overall aesthetics.
[0054] The above are preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
