Description
- The disclosure relates to a sock-shoe, more particularly to a three-dimensional sock-shoe that is stiff.
- In recent years, woven shoes have gradually replaced shoes made of plastic or leather and have become trendy. In comparison with traditional shoes, woven shoes can provide better comfort feeling during wear thereof, and will not allow a wearer's foot to feel discomfort due to pressure and friction. However, the technical threshold and cost of the woven shoes are high. Thus, some industry has developed a one-piece sock-shoe with the sock as its main component, such as Taiwanese Patent Numbers
M473088 M522581 M526299 -
US 2013/232825 A1 discloses an article of footwear that has a liner material (20) comprising a waterproof, water vapor permeable functional layer and is secured to an upper material (10) i.e. leather. A stretchable insole (80) is attached to the liner material, and comprises a set of layers that comprises a textile layer and a polymeric layer. - However, the foregoing conventional sock-shoe, apart from being thin and cannot provide warmth, has a material that is not stiff so that it has to rely on the user's foot to form a three-dimensional shape. That is, when not in use, the conventional sock-shoe will collapse and has a creased appearance, which is unaesthetic and unattractive. Further, to wear the conventional sock-shoe is just like wearing an ordinary sock, that is, the user must first extend the fingers of his/her hands inside the conventional sock-shoe and then pull it outward to permit entry of the user's foot into the sock-shoe. Hence, use of the conventional sock-shoe is inconvenient.
- Therefore, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a three-dimensional sock-shoe that is easy to wear and that can be kept upright when not in use.
- The above objectives are achieved by an article according to appended independent claim 1. Preferred embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
- Accordingly, a three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure includes a shoe sole, a sock body having a bottom portion connected to the shoe sole, and a foam sleeve inserted into the sock body. The foam sleeve has a shape corresponding to that of the sock body, defines a three-dimensional foot space, and is made by stitching together at least two layered structures. The foam sleeve successively consists of an inner lining layer, an intermediate foam layer and an outer fabric layer. At least one adhesive layer is disposed between the outer fabric layer and the sock body to adhere the outer fabric layer to the sock body.
- Other features and advantages of the disclosure will become apparent in the following detailed description of the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, of which:

- Referring to
Figs. 1 to 4 , a three-dimensional sock-shoe according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown to comprise asole unit 10, ashoe pad 20, asock body 21, afoam sleeve 22, and anadhesive layer 23. - The
sole unit 10 includes ashoe sole 11. - The
sock body 21 has abottom portion 211 connected to theshoe sole 11. In this embodiment, thesock body 21 has a pattern, and is a one-piece woven sock. - The
foam sleeve 22 is inserted into thesock body 21, has a shape corresponding to that of thesock body 21, and defines a three-dimensional foot space 221. Thefoam sleeve 22 is made by stitching together twolayered structures 220, as shown inFig. 4 . Thefoam sleeve 22 successively consists of aninner lining layer 222, anintermediate foam layer 223 and anouter fabric layer 224. Theintermediate foam layer 223 is adhered between theinner lining layer 222 and theouter fabric layer 224 by adhesives. Theshoe pad 20 is disposed in the three-dimensional foot space 221 to absorb shock during walking of the user so that the user can feel comfortable during wear of the sock-shoe of this disclosure. Theinner lining layer 222 is made of a material that is soft to touch or has a fluffy structure, but is not limited thereto, and may be made of a non-woven material and may be integrally formed as one piece. Theintermediate foam layer 223 is a continuous open type porous structure, has excellent flexibility, and is able to maintain upright and not collapsed inward so as to retain the shape of the three-dimensional foot space 221. Theintermediate foam layer 223 has a thickness ranging from 1 to 15 mm. The main function of theouter fabric layer 224 is to protect theintermediate foam layer 223 and to permit an object to stably connect with an outer side of thefoam sleeve 22. - The
adhesive layer 23 is disposed between thesock body 21 and theouter fabric layer 224 so as to adhere theouter fabric layer 224 closely to thesock body 21. - During manufacture of this disclosure, inner and outer sides of the
intermediate foam layer 223 are first coated with adhesives, after which the inner side of theintermediate foam layer 223 is adhered to theinner lining layer 222 and the outer side thereof is adhered to theouter fabric layer 224 to form a layered structure. The layered structure is then cut into two pieces, each of which has the shape of a shoe half. The two layered structures are stitched together to form thefoam sleeve 22. Next, thefoam sleeve 22 is sleeved on a shoe last, and theadhesive layer 23 is coated on theouter fabric layer 224. Afterwards, thesock body 21 is sleeved on thefoam sleeve 22, and is fixed to theouter fabric layer 224 through theadhesive layer 23. Thefoam sleeve 22 and thesock body 21 together with the shoe last are then sent to an oven and are heated at a specific temperature for a certain period of time to cure theadhesive layer 23. After theadhesive layer 23 is cured, thefoam sleeve 22 and thesock body 21 together with the shoe last are removed from the oven and are cooled. After cooling, thebottom portion 211 of thesock body 21 is adhered fixedly to theshoe sole 11, and the shoe last is removed from thefoam sleeve 22 and thesock body 21, thereby completing the manufacturing process of this disclosure. - By virtue of the excellent flexibility of the
intermediate foam layer 223 of thefoam sleeve 22, the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure can be kept upright without collapsing inward when not in use, so that the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure is not only aesthetic, but also is easy for the user to wear. - Referring to
Figs. 5 to 7 , the second embodiment of the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure is shown to be generally identical to the first embodiment. However, the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this embodiment further comprises a moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 disposed between theouter fabric layer 224 of thefoam sleeve 22 and thesock body 21. Further, twoadhesive layers 23 are used in this embodiment. That is, one of theadhesive layers 23 is disposed between theouter fabric layer 224 and the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 to adhere the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 closely to theouter fabric layer 224, and the otheradhesive layer 23 is disposed between the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 and thesock body 21 to adhere the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 closely to thesock body 21. - The moisture-permeable
waterproof sleeve 24 can prevent water from the outside to seep into thefoam sleeve 22, but can permit moisture in thefoam sleeve 22 to expel therethrough. Hence, the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 can achieve moisture-permeable and waterproof effect. It should be noted herein that in other embodiment, the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 may be formed on thefoam sleeve 22 in many ways, for example, by a dipping process, in which thefoam sleeve 22 is dipped into a moisture-permeable waterproof resin solution; a spraying process, in which a moisture-permeable waterproof resin solution is sprayed onto an outer side of theouter fabric layer 224; or, by forming a moisture-permeable waterproof membrane on a fabric substrate using the dipping or spraying process, after which the moisture-permeable waterproof membrane is adhered to the outer side of theouter fabric layer 224. - The moisture-permeable
waterproof sleeve 24 is made of a material including one of the following resins: polyurethane (PU), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), latex, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene (PE), and polypropylene (PP). - The moisture-permeable
waterproof sleeve 24 can permit the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure to simultaneously have a moisture-permeable effect and a waterproof effect. In order to present the moisture-permeable and waterproof effect of the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure with specific data, two testing methods, namely, JIS L1092B and JIS L1099B1, were used to measure the waterproofing and moisture permeability of this disclosure. The results are: water pressure resistance of this disclosure is not less than 3000 mm H2O, and the moisture permeability thereof is not less than 3000 g/m2/24hr. - Hence, aside from achieving the same advantages of the first embodiment, the second embodiment further has moisture-permeable and waterproof effect.
- Referring to
Figs. 8 and9 , the third embodiment of the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure is shown to be generally identical to the second embodiment. However, the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this embodiment further comprises awaterproof strip 25 and a tighteningunit 30. Thewaterproof strip 25 is disposed between the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 and a stitching junction of the twolayered structures 220 of thefoam sleeve 22. The provision of thewaterproof strip 25 can further ensure that water may not seep through the stitching junction of thefoam sleeve 22. The tighteningunit 30 is disposed transversely on a vamp portion of thesock body 21, and is used to tighten the three-dimensional sock-shoe over the user's foot that is inserted into thefoot space 221. The tighteningunit 30 includes a pair of tighteningplates 31 respectively connected to left and right sides of the shoe sole 11, and three tighteningstrips 32 interconnecting the tighteningplates 31. Each of the tighteningplates 31 has a connectingend portion 311 connected to the respective left or right side of the shoe sole 11, and afree end portion 312 opposite to the connectingend portion 311. The tightening strips 32 interconnect thefree end portions 312 of the tighteningplates 31. The tighteningunit 30 can permit the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this embodiment to tightly cover the user's foot. - The advantages of the second embodiment can be similarly achieved using the third embodiment.
- The advantages of the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure can be summarized as follows:
- 1) Because the
intermediate foam layer 223 of thefoam sleeve 22 has excellent flexibility and is able to maintain upright and not collapsed inward so as to retain the shape of the three-dimensional foot space 221, the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure has a stiffness that can be kept upright to maintain a three-dimensional shape even when not in use. Hence, the three-dimensional sock-shoe of this disclosure is not only aesthetic, but also can be easily and quickly worn by the user. - 2) Through the provision of the moisture-permeable
waterproof sleeve 24, this disclosure has good waterproof and moisture-permeable effect. When the user's foot sweats, moisture inside the sock-shoe can be expelled through the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24. During rainy days, rainwater is prevented by the moisture-permeablewaterproof sleeve 24 to seep into thefoam sleeve 22 from thesock body 21, so that the user's foot can be kept dry and comfortable. - 3) In comparison with the traditional shoe having a hollow bottom portion, which is usually not waterproof, water can easily seep into the shoe through the hollow bottom portion thereof.
