[0020] The present invention provides a structure of shoe, which is a structure of shoe that is integrally formed and comprises a woven structure and the structure of shoe comprises no sewing arrangement, provides excellent elasticity, and saves cost of material. For a throughout understanding of the present invention, details of steps and structures of the present invention will be descried. Any manufacturing process and specific steps for manufacturing the structure of shoe that are well known in the art will not be descried in order not to impose undue limitations to the present invention. However, details of preferred embodiments of the present invention will be given hereinafter and beyond these descriptions, the present invention is equally applicable to a variety of embodiments. The scope of the present invention is not to be limited by the descriptions and is only defined in the appended claims.
[0021] Referring first to Figure 1, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a shoe body. In Figure 1, the shoe structure 1 comprises a shoe body 10 and a reinforcement structure 12. The first shoe body 10 comprises an upper 112, a sole 114, an opening 118, and a rear section 120. The opening 118 receives the insertion of a foot of a wearer to allow the shoe to be worn on the wearer for walking. In the instant embodiment, the shoe body 10 comprises a woven structure that comprises a plurality of meshes. Thus, the shoe body 10 has excellent air permeability. Further, the shoe body 10 is of a woven structure and thus it retains hygroscopicity and elasticity to provide a comfortable feeling of being well suited to the foot, enable complete enclosure of the foot of the wearer, and totally comply with the skin of the foot of the wearer to have an effect of second skin.
[0022] Next, continuously referring to Figure 1, the shoe structure 1 further comprises at least one reinforcement structure 12. The reinforcement structure 12 is coupled to the shoe body 10 to support the shoe body 10 so as to prevent the shoe body 10 from being un-shapeable in the same way as socks do. In an embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcement structure 12 is provided on the inside surface 101 of the shoe body 10, as shown in the left side of the shoe in Figure 1. Since the reinforcement structure 12 is a woven structure, when the reinforcement structure 12 is set on the inside surface 101 of the shoe body 10, a wearer's foot, when put on the shoe structure, will not feel stabbing or uncomfortable. Further, in another embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcement structure 12 is arranged on an outside surface 102 of the shoe body 10, as shown in the right side of the shoe in Figure 1. Further, the reinforcement structure 12 can be made in the form of various patterns, characters, or signs and is attached to the outside surface 102 of the shoe body 10, whereby the shoe body 10 may use the various configurations of the reinforcement structure 12 to support the shoe body 10 and also to improve aesthetic appearance of the shoe structure 1. In another embodiment, the reinforcement structure 12 is arranged on an inside surface (not shown) or an outside surface (not shown) of a toe compartment 122 of a fore portion 126 of the shoe body 10 or both the inside surface and the outside surface of the toe compartment 122 are provided with the reinforcement structure 12. As such, the reinforcement structure 12 may provide protection to the toes against damage caused by a downward impact or hit. Further, the reinforcement structure 12 can be arranged on a flank 124 of the shoe body to prevent the foot of the wearer from shifting laterally inside the shoe structure 1 for reducing abrasion and protection of the foot from straining. In a further embodiment, the reinforcement structure 12 is provided on the rear section 120 for protecting the heel of the wearer from injury when the foot is moving longitudinally in the shoe structure 1. Further, the reinforcement structures 12 may be provided on the inside surface 101 or the outside surface 102 of the whole the shoe body 10 or provided on both the inside surface 101 and the outside surface 102. The arrangement of the reinforcement structure is not limited to what is described herein.
[0023] Next, referring to Figures 2 and 3, Figure 2 is an exploded view of a shoe structure that comprises an outsole structure, a tongue, a, and a counter and Figure 3 is an exploded view, taken from one side, showing the shoe structure that comprises the outsole structure, the tongue, and the counter. In the previously discussed embodiments, the shoe structure 1 is provided, ready for being put on the foot of a wearer. To further improve the ground contact characteristic and comfortableness of walking of the shoe structure 1 put on the foot of the wearer, in another embodiment, the shoe structure 1 is provided, on a bottom 114 thereof, with an outsole structure 14, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. In an embodiment of the present invention, the outsole structure 14 is integrally formed with the shoe body 10. Alternatively, the outsole structure 14 is bonded to the bottom 114 of the shoe body 10 by an adhesive layer (not shown).
[0024] The shoe structure 1 according to the present invention may be provided with additional components for functionality. Continuously referring to Figures 2 and 3, in the embodiment, the shoe structure 1 further comprises a tongue 16, which is arranged in a fore portion 126 of the shoe body 10 in such a way to expose a portion of the opening 118 for protection of the back of the foot. In an embodiment, the tongue 16 is integrally formed with the shoe body 10. In another embodiment, depending upon the application of the shoe structure 1, the tongue 16 is provided separate from the shoe 10.
Further, the tongue 16 can be made of a woven structure to provide air permeability when a wearer puts on the shoe.
[0025] Next, the shoe structure 1 may further comprise a counter 18, which is provided in the rear section 120 of the shoe body 10 and may be positioned on the inside surface 101, the outside surface 102, or both the inside surface 101 and outside surface 102 of the rear section 120. Providing the counter 18 helps improve the supporting force of a hind portion 128 and also protects the heel of the wearer from damage caused by walking or exercising.
[0026] Thus, according to the above embodiments, the shoe structure 1 that comprises the shoe body 10, the outsole structure 14, the tongue 16, and the counter 18 is obtained, as shown in Figure 4. In other embodiments of the present invention, the shoe structure 1 can be of various combinations of the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12, the outsole structure 14, the tongue 16, and the counter 18. For example, the shoe structure 1 may be only the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12. In another embodiment, the shoe structure 1 can be the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12 and the outsole structure 14. In a further embodiment, the shoe structure 1 can be the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12 and the tongue 16. In a further embodiment, the shoe structure 1 can be the shoe body 10 and the counter 18. In a further embodiment, the shoe structure 1 can be the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12, the outsole structure 14, and the tongue 16. In a further embodiment, the shoe structure 1 can be the shoe body 10 comprising the reinforcement structure 12, the tongue 16, and the counter 18. The outsole structure 14, the tongue 16, and the counter 18 can be integrally formed with the shoe body 10 that comprises the reinforcement structure 12 or separately provided on the shoe body 10. Further, depending upon the applications, the shoe structure 1 according to the present invention can be used as a mountain-hiking shoe, a water/ground dual-purpose shoe, various functional sports shoes, an outdoor shoe or an indoor shoe.
