<p>The present invention refers to a shoe sole which affords a resilient, shock-absorbing and gradual inpact of the foot with the ground.
<??>This result is obtained through a twin series of contrivances. Firstly, on the surface facing the foot, the insole is made up of a series of parallel, mobile blocks, supported by springs (preferably spiral springs) of varying stiffness (preferably in the ratio 9-4-5 corresponding respectively to the heel, the plantar arch and the metatarsus), housed inside cavities made in the rigid or semi-rigid sole. Secondly, facing the ground, is situated an outsole (integrated to the insole by glueing or molding), made of elastomer and having three protrusions connected transversely, the first beneath the joints, the second under the metatarsus and the third under the heel.
<??>The insole group containing cavities, springs and blocks is kept in reciprocal position, but mobile upwards, by an annular welt, obtained through molding and attached to the sole by means of polyamide screws which may be removed at will.
<??>On said sole one may fit any type of vamp, especially the open type suitable for sandals. </p> |
