AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing shoes with a belt-like foot enclosing band struggle to apply sufficient pressure to the sole of the foot, especially during dynamic movements, as they fail to flexibly follow the changing shape of the sole, thereby compromising the fit feeling.
Method used
A shoe design featuring an enclosure formed by combining multiple linear bodies, including a medial, lateral, and lower portion, connected via shoelaces, which allows for flexible adjustment and pressure application to the sole, enhancing the fit feeling.
Benefits of technology
The design effectively applies pressure to the sole, improving the fit feeling by flexibly accommodating the changing shape of the foot during movement, particularly in sports activities.
