Definitions

  • the present invention relates to footwear having a liquid waterproof, water vapor permeable component.
  • This object is accomplished by providing footwear having a liquid water impermeable, but breathable member inserted in the upper so as to provide transmission of water vapor from the inside of the footwear to the outside.
  • the member is protected by a protective layer in one or both sides.
  • the member and any protective layers are attached along their perimeter to a structure in the form of a molding, frame or a similar structure that can be easily attached to the upper by insertion into a socket provided in the upper.
  • This invention is useful for footwear having a thick upper which almost completely inhibits breathability, i.e., water vapor transmission.
  • a layer of a liquid water impermeable but breathable material e. g., a layer of stretched porous polytetrafluoroethylene, preferably enclosed between an inner abrasion resistant protective layer and an outer layer made of a material capable of providing an adequate protection against concussions.
  • the member may be made like a button or the like having a peripheral area for insertion and attachment in an appropriate socket of the upper.
  • the protective layers are of a breathable material also, and can be fixed to the perimeter of the member.
  • reference numeral 1 designates an upper of a piece of footwear
  • 2 is for an outsole of the footwear
  • 3 is for a liquid water impermeable, breathable member attached to the wall of the upper at socket 7. It is seen that member 3 covers a window, or zone, in the upper.
  • the breathable member is preferably covered by protective layers of different materials. These layers are joined in such a manner as to form a member that is adapted to be inserted into the upper for ensuring transpiration of the foot.
  • the breathable member shown at reference numeral 4 in Figure 2 is enclosed between an outer protective layer and an inner layer 5.
  • Outer layer 5 should possess enhanced mechanical properties and abrasion resistance. It should be highly breathable and protect layers 4 and 6 and the foot against concussions and against penetration of foreign bodies such as pebble stone, wood splinters, and the like.
  • Inner layer 6 is primarily designed to protect membrane 4 against abrasion caused by friction with the interior of the footwear, etc. It should be breathable also. It may possess good heat insulating properties and high mechanical strength, while being capable of absorbing external shocks.
  • Outer layer 5 is preferably made of such materials as a metal net, a synthetic net made of plastics, solid layers made of such plastics as silicone plastic, perforated rubber, etc., natural and synthetic leather.
  • Layer 6 can be felt, e.g., a polyester felt or felt made of another synthetic and/or natural fiber of an appropriate thickness, or the like.
  • layer 6 can be in the form of a layer of synthetic foam with open or closed cells, preferably perforated.
  • the various layers are attached to each other by conventional means known to those skilled in the art, e. g., by means of adhesive dots or by joining at the edges, etc.
  • the member can be attached to the upper of the footwear by gluing at the perimeter or by any other appropriate known method. It is preferred, yet not necessary, that the member have at its perimeter a molding defining a lip or a frame with raised edges 8 so that this structure having the appropriate transpirable layers could be inserted into a matching socket 7 of the upper .
  • footwear in which advantages of the thicker upper are combined with the advantages of having good breathability.
