Definitions

  • This invention relates to sports shoes and in particular sports shoes used in sports where the feet are used to control a ball.
  • suitable applications for the invention are in soccer boots and rugby football boots.
  • football boots are well known and have a tough upper surface suitable for handling the impact of a travelling ball or the force behind the wearer kicking the ball. Often the heel of the boot will also be of a toughened material to cope with impacts in back passing the ball.
  • the upper surface of the boot is provided with a ridged, relatively high friction surface. This added friction causes a ball approaching the surface of the boot from an oblique angle to slow down on contact with the surface giving the wearer greater opportunity to turn and direct the ball before passing it to another player. It may also make it easier for the wearer to stop a moving ball with his foot.
  • GB-A-2 286 517 and FR-A-2 365 972 disclose the features of the preamble of claim 1, and WO 96 32 856 discloses an extruded or casted pad containing a fluid.
  • the present invention aims to provide a boot which gives further control to the wearer in manoeuvring a ball.
  • the elasticated frictional surface is provided in the form of a plurality of pieces of frictional material fixed to an elasticated surface.
  • the frictional material is preferably a rubber or rubber like material having a grooved, castellated or otherwise roughened surface.
  • the pieces may be of any shape but are suitably square, rectangular or diamond shaped.
  • the pieces may be fixed to an elasticated material substrate by any suitable means such as stitching or chemical bonding.
  • Different pieces may, optionally, be provided with different types of frictional surface, for example, some may be grooved, others castellated.
  • the frictional surface may comprise raised figures or alphanumeric characters which may, for example, be indicative of the brand name of the shoe or the manufacture providing the shoe.
  • Suitable elastic materials include rubbers, or any fabrics incorporating an elastic material such as LycraTM or ElastaneTM. Preferable the material is durable and wear resistant.
  • the ball controlling surface further comprises a layer of confined fluid beneath the elasticated layer.
  • This fluid layer may conveniently be provided in the form of a gel such as a silicone gel. On impact by a ball, this fluid layer will give, absorbing some kinetic energy from the moving ball, again permitting the ball to be slowed down more quickly and effectively than with the prior art boots.
  • the ball controlling surface may be provided on the toe and upper front surface of the boot or the rear heel portion of the boot.
  • both surfaces may be provided with a ball controlling surface according to the present invention.
  • the basic shape of the boot 1 resembles that of known football boots. It has a sole 2 carrying a plurality of studs 3a, 3b, 3c, Vietnamese and an upper surface 4 comprising a tongue 5, a foot encapsulating portion 6 and laces 7 threaded through holes 8a, 8b, 8c,.... provided either side of a slashed opening 9 provided in the foot encapsulating portion 6.
  • the toe portion 10 of the foot encapsulating portion 6 is provided with a ball controlling surface in accordance with the present invention.
  • the upper surface of the ball controlling portion is provided with a plurality of diamond shaped pieces of rubber 11a, 11b, 11c, across affixed to underlying elasticated layer 12.
  • Each piece of rubber 11a, 11b, 11c,.... has a grooved surface to provide additional friction. It is to be noted that the pieces of rubber 11a, 11b, 11c,.... are slightly raised from elasticated layer 12 and are spaced slightly apart from each other, this in itself provides a frictional property to the ball controlling surface.
  • a fluid layer 13 in this case made up of a globular gel-like substance.
  • the heel portion 14 of the foot encapsulating portion 6 may also optionally be provided with a ball controlling surface in accordance with the present invention.
  • the letters A, B and C represent sequential steps in the manufacture of the embodiment illustrated.
