Definitions
- the present invention relates to a structure of a transpiring shoe for allowing the exchange of air stagnating inside the shoe through a perforated sole in order to achieve perfect transpiration of the foot.
- a structure of a sole which is the result of the assembly of a perforated tread with a transpiring arch-support, with a membrane which is selectively permeable to air but not to water placed in between.
- This solution in addition to complicating the standard procedure of manufacture of the footwear, may make the mechanism for expulsion of air towards the outside environment of little effect, most of the air to be expelled having to tackle a somewhat winding path before being able to be released externally.
- the object of the present invention is therefore that of providing a transpiring shoe which remedies all the disadvantages previously referred and complained of in traditional embodiments, and more particularly which is made without modifying the standard procedure of manufacturing the shoe itself.
- Another object of the present invention is that of providing a transpiring shoe without altering the line or appearance or area of intended use thereof.
- Yet another object of the present invention is that of providing a simple system for transpiration so as not to affect or affect slightly the cost of the end product.
- the present invention provides transpiring footwear which complies with the features of the claims attached hereinbelow.
- the footwear of the present invention is characterised by the possibility of allowing transpiration of the foot simply by applying to the internal surface of the perforated tread or sole an insole in a material which is impermeable to water but transpiring. In this way a more efficient mechanism of ventilation of the shoe is guaranteed, given that the simple transpiring sole structure designed in this way encourages a virtually direct exchange of air between the interior of the shoe and the external environment.
- the process of manufacturing the transpiring shoe of the present invention is virtually unchanged in relation to the normal process of fabrication of a shoe, given that it can be obtained from the waterproofed peripheral attachment between the perforated sole and an insole in a material which is selectively permeable to air but not to water, the latter insole being also integrated with an upper in a bag construction of the tubular or of the StrobergTM or CaliforniaTM type, or from the waterproofed peripheral attachment between the aforementioned insole and the sole whereon the upper is subsequently mounted.
- a first embodiment is shown of the present invention wherein the shoe 1 comprises a tread or sole 3 provided with vertical through holes 5 which open on the upper surface of the same sole 3.
- the through holes 5 form on the upper surface of the sole 3 a grid which is entirely covered by an insole 7 in a material which is selectively permeable to air but not to water, for example in GoretexTM.
- the insole 7 is attached peripherally to the sole 3 in such a position that the area of attachment (shown in heavy print in Fig. 1b) between the sole 3 and the insole 7 totally circumscribes the grid of holes 5.
- insole 7 Naturally attachment of the insole 7 to the sole 3 must be watertight, and in the present case is achieved by gluing.
- Other equally effective systems such as waterproofed stitching, sealing or injection can also be foreseen. It is also possible to replace the GoretexTM with another material having the same features.
- the construction of the shoe 1 is completed by attaching peripherally the upper 9 on the external edge of the sole 3.
- the shoe structure 11 is formed by a sole 33 provided with through holes 55, and an insole 77 in a material which is impermeable to water but transpiring, integrated with an upper 99 with a StrobergTM or CaliforniaTM bag construction.
- the insole 77 is already sewn on the lower edge of the upper 99 when it is glued to the perforated sole 33.
- the stitching 2 of the insole 77 on the upper 99 is not forced to be waterproofed given that gluing in a more internal position (shown in heavy print in Fig. 2b) between the insole 77 and the sole 33 is sufficient for avoiding any undesirable infiltration of water inside the shoe 11.
- FIG. 3a and 3b A shoe structure of another preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figs. 3a and 3b wherein, on the sole 333 provided with holes 555, an upper 999 is attached with a tubular bag construction in a material which is impermeable to water but not to air. From the external edge of the sole 333 a band 444 extends upwards, to whose internal side wall the upper 999 is attached, in this specific case glued but in general attached with one of the methods mentioned above which ensure watertightness.
- the base portion 777 which is superimposed on the holes 555 represents the insole which prevents the passage of water towards the interior of the footwear.
- the insole 777 gluing of the insole 777, not on the actual perforated sole but on the band 444, generates between the insole 777 and the sole 333 a large interspace of moist air to be expelled which is compressed by the foot during walking and consequently conveyed towards the inlet of the holes 555.
- the expelled air is preferably the air present below the foot which is notoriously that which is most full of perspiration and moisture.
- the present invention provides a shoe structure, comprising a perforated sole wherein an insole is attached in a material which is selectively permeable to air but not to water and an upper which can already be integrated with the insole according to a bag construction of the tubular or StrobergTM or CaliforniaTM type, or which alternatively is attached directly to the sole, said shoe structure being suitable for transpiration of the foot even if made without modifying or complicating the normal procedure of manufacture of a shoe.
- transpiring footwear can also be foreseen for the transpiring footwear to have a perforated sole wherein the number, distance and arrangement of the holes can vary as required.
- the distribution of the holes can involve the whole sole, or only one of its portions, for example a portion corresponding to the heel or to the sole of the foot.
