Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sole (inner sole) used as an insole of a fishing boot worn by a fisherman when fishing on a rocky place.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Some conventional fishing boots have a felt sole attached to the bottom surface of the boot body. This felt sole is a synthetic fiber felt processed into a shoe sole shape, and is attached to the boot body so as to be attached or detached. In this way, the felt sole attached to the sole of the shoe has a sufficient anti-slip effect even in a slippery environment such as the deck of a wet fishing boat or a wet mossy rocky place, and the fisherman can walk safely. Become.

The boot body of such a fishing boot has a certain stylized shape for fixing the felt sole. In addition, such a boot body is waterproof
It is often made of a relatively hard rubber material for water-resistant processing, and has a certain stylized shape. For this reason, conventional fishing boots are not of a type that fits snugly on the feet of the fisherman wearing the boots, and play (a gap between the wearer's feet and the boots) may occur inside. There are many. And, because of such play, when a fisherman wears boots and fishes, he often slips in his boots.

This type of foot movement is not a serious problem in general boots, but is a major problem in fishing boots. That is, when wearing the fishing boots used in places where the footing is poor such as on a rocky place, the angler puts a heavy load on the foot because the footer steps on the footing, and heavier weight is applied to the front part for operating the fishing rod. Therefore, the foot moves to the toe side in the fishing boot, and a great deal of weight is applied to the toe. If such a load is applied to the toes for a long time, the toes will hurt,
Furthermore, it is possible for the nails to crack.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional fishing boots and solves them. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a fishing boot in which the toes do not become tired and cause no pain even when worn for a long time.
