Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved sports shoe for a gliding sport, such as skiing, skating, snowboarding and the like.
- a sports shoe for a gliding sport generally comprises a rigid shell to which a partially pivoting cuff is mounted.
- the shell and/or the cuff of the sports shoe generally comprise a pair of flaps closable by means of fastening buckles, which are mounted transversely to these flaps, approximately at the upper surface of the foot and/or the lower portion of the leg.
- some known sports shoes comprise safety mechanical devices which include some blocking elements, which can be positioned manually by the user into suitable seats arranged on the fastening buckle. These blocking elements are able to prevent any accidental and unwanted opening of the fastening buckle during the sports activity.
- a drawback of such conventional solutions consists in that positioning of such blocking elements entails a remarkable increase of the time which is required for closing the fastening buckle. This drawback is somehow worsened by the fact that the positioning of such blocking elements must often be performed in a very precise manner, which cannot be accomplished easily when the user is wearing gloves, as it often happens.
- fastening buckles which comprise these known safety mechanical devices are often relatively unaestethic, cumbersome, difficult to use and complex in fabrication. This leads to an increase in design and production times and costs; as a matter of fact, it is well known that the fastening buckles comprising these safety mechanical devices are much more expensive than the traditional ones.
- the practice has shown that, often, the increase of the structural complexity of the fastening buckles implies a decrease of their structural sturdiness and resistance to stress or accidental impacts.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe, which allows to achieve an effective protection of the fastening buckles against accidental opening and, at the same time, a high level of ease of use without complicating the structure of the fastening buckles.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe, comprising one or more protection elements for preventing the fastening buckles of the sports shoe from accidental openings, which are particularly easy to manufacture and quick to handle for any user, even when wearing gloves.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe, which comprises one or more protection elements that are able to increase the overall aesthetic appearance of the sports shoe.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe, which comprises one or more protection elements that do not to increase the structural complexity of the fastening buckles.
- Still a further object of the present invention is to provide a sports shoe, which comprises one or more protection elements that are structurally simple and can be designed and manufactured at relatively low cost.
- a sports shoe for a gliding sport which comprises: an upper and/or a shell and/or a cuff, which are provided with at least a first flap and a second flap, which are closable over each other by means of at least a fastening buckle; and at least a protection element, which is associated to the fastening buckle for preventing the fastening buckle from accidental openings, characterised in that such protection element comprises at least a strap, which is associated to the upper and/or shell and/or cuff and which is arranged, so as to wrap around and/or cover, at least partially, the fastening buckle.
- the first portion 15a has a width, which is approximately equal or greater than the width of the fastening buckle 11, so as to cover it entirely.
- the width of the first portion 15a is approximately equal or greater than the extension given by the sum of the width of the fastening buckle 11, the width of each of the additional fastening buckles and the intermediate distances between the fastening buckle 11 and/or the additional fastening buckles.
- the protection elements 14 can be used in a very easy and quick manner.
- the user by opening the fastening buckle 11, may pull apart the first and second pairs of flaps 9 and 10 of the liner 6 and the cuff 7, thus being able to introduce the foot into the sports shoe 5.
- the fastening buckle 11 allows closing over each other the first flap 10a and the second flap 10b of the cuff 7.
- the protection of the fastening buckle 11 may be guaranteed by positioning the first portion 15a over the fastening buckle 11 and temporarily connecting it to the second portion 15b.
- the interconnection of the portions 15a and 15b can be achieved by simply overlapping, at least partially, the outer surfaces 16a and 16b.
- the protection element 14 provides an effective protection against accidental openings of the buckles 11 and, at the same time, can be operated by the user in an extremely easy and quick manner, even wearing gloves. It should be noticed that the protection element 14 is also effective from an aesthetic point of view, since the protection strap 150 may be easily used as a base for decorative, graphic elements or for trade or advertising signs, thus obtaining additional, highly visible space for decoration. Moreover, since it is completely separated from the fastening buckles 11, the protection element 14 does not influence at all the structural complexity of the fastening buckle 11, which maintains its structural sturdiness and complexity and its overall size substantially unchanged. Thus, also the production times and costs of the fastening buckle 11 do not change in relation to the presence of the protection element 14. Finally, the protection element 14 is structurally simple and can be manufactured at relatively low costs.
