A shoe upper protector combines a tiptoe guard and medial region shield made of abrasion-resistant resin to cover high-wear foot areas.
A shoe body integrates a rack, gears, and spring buffer to drive an axial generator during walking.
Segmented shoe upper protrusions improve ball control by increasing friction and damping energy transfer across the entire surface.
Thermal joining of overlapping ribbon sections creates a durable footwear upper that reduces weight and manufacturing complexity.
A ski shoe tongue assembly with a flat tibia contact surface aligns with the lower leg to distribute forces over a larger area.
A shoe upper uses braided portions to generate elastic restoring force for a secure fit.
Integrally forming apertures through casting-off stitches eliminates post-knitting cutting waste while maintaining structural support and stability.
Stretched stretchable fabric integration eliminates upper wrinkles during exercise by accommodating dynamic foot shape changes.
