Description

  The present invention relates to a shoe used by, for example, an infant.

The shoes for infants who are still unfamiliar with walking are provided with a belt for attaching / detaching the shoes, and a hook-and-loop fastener is formed on the belt. Specifically, male and female hook-and-loop fasteners are formed on the upper and belt of the shoe, respectively, and the belt is fixed to the upper by engaging them.
However, since it is difficult for a person requiring assistance or an infant who does not have sufficient finger functions to release such a hook-and-loop fastener, a gripping part is provided on the belt, and the infant or the like holds the gripping part to operate it. By doing so, what has the structure which is easy to release the hook-and-loop fastener of a belt and an upper is proposed (for example, patent document 1 thru | or patent document 3).
Utility Model Registration No. 3053587 (FIG. 1 etc.) Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-097498 (FIG. 4 etc.) JP 2004-121739 A (FIG. 3 etc.)

However, the grip portion provided on the shoe belt as shown in Patent Document 1 or the like is formed in the direction in which the belt extends and toward the shoe bottom. When formed in this way, there were the following problems.
For example, in the case of shoes for infants, the upper is small, but the belt is formed large. Therefore, if the grip provided on the belt protrudes toward the shoe bottom, the grip is There is a problem that it involves dangers such as obstructing walking.
On the other hand, if the gripping portion is made small so as not to hinder walking, there is a problem that an infant or the like cannot only grasp the presence of the gripping portion but is difficult to grip.

  Then, an object of this invention is to provide the shoes which have a holding part which is easy to hold | grip and is easy to recognize the presence, without hindering walking.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a shoe sole portion for arranging a sole side of a user's foot, and an upper body formed so as to stand up from the shoe sole portion and wrap the user's foot. And a heel portion for placing a heel of a user's foot, wherein the upper main body portion includes a mouth portion for inserting the user's foot, and the foot portion. A foot insertion opening formed in a toe side direction by cutting away a part of the tongue, a tongue-like contact portion disposed corresponding to the foot insertion opening, and the tongue-like contact portion And a fixing belt portion disposed with respect to the foot insertion opening, and the fixing belt portion is disposed so as to protrude at least in one direction from the tongue-like contact portion. A bell on the inner surface of the fixing belt portion facing the upper main body portion of the fixing belt portion A hook-and-loop fastener is disposed, and an outer side fastener that is engageable with the belt hook-and-loop fastener is disposed on the outer surface of the upper main body, and one of the belt hook-and-loop fastener and the upper side fastener is the fixing belt portion. The fixing belt portion is formed with a gripping portion that protrudes toward the toe side and is not provided with the belt surface fastener. Achieved with shoes.

According to the above configuration, since the grip portion is formed at the tip portion of the fixing belt portion so as to protrude toward the toe side, the grip portion does not protrude toward the shoe sole portion of the fixed belt portion. . Therefore, when the user walks while wearing shoes, the gripping part does not come into contact with the ground or the like on the shoe bottom side, thereby preventing the walking.
In addition, since the grip portion is not arranged so as to extend toward the front end portion side of the fixing belt portion, the user can easily recognize the presence of the grip portion, and the belt surface fastener is not disposed, so that the belt The shoe is lifted from the upper body by the thickness of the hook-and-loop fastener, making it easy to grip.
In addition, since one of the belt surface fastener and the upper surface fastener is formed larger than the other in the longitudinal direction of the fixing belt portion, the engagement position of the upper surface fastener with respect to the belt surface fastener can be changed. Thus, the fixing belt portion can be adjusted to an appropriate fixing position according to the size and shape of the user's foot.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a shoe sole for arranging a sole side of a user's foot, and an upper body formed so as to stand up from the shoe sole and wrap the user's foot. And a heel portion for placing a heel of a user's foot, wherein the upper main body portion includes a mouth portion for inserting the user's foot, and the foot portion. A foot insertion opening formed in a toe side direction by cutting away a part of the tongue, a tongue-like contact portion disposed corresponding to the foot insertion opening, and the tongue-like contact portion And a fixing belt portion disposed with respect to the foot insertion opening, and the fixing belt portion is disposed so as to protrude at least in one direction from the tongue-like contact portion. A bell on the inner surface of the fixing belt portion facing the upper main body portion of the fixing belt portion A hook-and-loop fastener is arranged, and an upper side fastener that can be engaged with the belt hook-and-loop fastener is arranged on the outer surface of the upper main body, and the belt hook-and-loop fastener in the fixing belt portion is more than the upper side fastener. A grip portion protruding toward the toe side is formed at the distal end portion of the fixing belt portion, and when the belt surface fastener is engaged with the upper side fastener, the grip portion This is achieved by a shoe characterized in that at least a part of the shoe is disposed out of engagement with the upper body.

According to the above configuration, since the belt surface fastener in the fixing belt portion is formed larger than the upper side surface fastener, the relative positions of the upper side surface fastener and the belt surface fastener are not accurately aligned. Can be fixed together.
In other words, even if the relative position between the upper side fastener and the belt surface fastener is slightly shifted, the upper side fastener remains in the larger belt surface fastener, so that the belt surface fastener is reliably engaged.
Further, according to the above configuration, when the belt surface fastener is engaged with the upper side fastener, at least a part of the gripping portion is disposed in a non-engaged state with the upper body, so that a shoe user or the like can operate it.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The embodiments described below are preferred specific examples of the present invention, and thus various technically preferable limitations are given. However, the scope of the present invention is particularly limited in the following description. Unless otherwise stated, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

(First embodiment)
(About the outline of the overall configuration of the infant shoe 100 according to the first embodiment.)
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view showing an infant shoe 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
An infant shoe 100 as shown in FIG. 1 is a shoe for an infant of about 1 year 6 months to 2 years 6 months, for example. At this time, infants begin to become better at walking, and not only stop running on their own, but also want to wear their own shoes.

As shown in FIG. 1, the infant shoe 100 has a shoe sole portion 110 for placing a sole of a foot of an infant who is a user, for example. The infant shoe 100 also has an upper main body 120 formed so as to stand up from the shoe sole 110 and wrap the infant's foot, and a heel part 130 for placing the foot of the infant's foot. .
Further, the upper main body portion 120 of the infant shoe 100 has a wear mouth portion 140 and a tongue-like contact portion 150 for inserting an infant's foot. The tongue contact portion 150 will be described later.

FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view showing a state where the tongue-like contact portion 150 of FIG. 1 is opened on the toe side of the infant shoe 100.
As shown in FIG. 2, the footwear opening 100 is formed in the infant shoe 100 by cutting away a part of the mouthpiece 140 and forming toward the toe side.
The tongue-like contact portion 150 is fixed to the toe side of the foot insertion opening 160.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, when the foot insertion opening 160 is widened and the tongue-like contact portion 150 is opened, the wearing mouth portion 140 of the infant shoe 100 opens sufficiently wide, and the infant opens his / her foot. The shoe is easy to put in and take off. In addition, it is easy for children to wear their shoes, and it is easy for them to remove their shoes.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tongue-like contact portion 150 corresponds to the foot insertion opening 160 and is disposed so as to cover the foot insertion opening 160. It is fixed to the upper main body 120 on the side.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the infant shoe 100 includes, for example, a belt portion 170 that is a fixing belt portion disposed with respect to the tongue-like contact portion 150 and the foot insertion opening 160. Yes. The configuration of the belt unit 170 will be described later.
As shown in FIG. 1, the infant shoe 100 is provided with at least a counter portion 131 for increasing its rigidity, as shown in FIG. 1.
Specifically, the hatched portion in FIG. 1 is the counter portion 131 and is formed inside the collar portion 130. The counter unit 131 is made of, for example, rubber or nonwoven fabric having a thickness of about 1.2 mm.

(About belt part 170 etc.)
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the belt portion 170 is formed integrally with the tongue-like contact portion 150. Further, the belt portion 170 is disposed so as to protrude from both sides of the tongue-like contact portion 150.
Specifically, an inner foot side belt portion 171 that is an inner foot side of the upper main body portion 120 of the infant shoe 100 and an outer foot side belt portion 172 that is an outer foot side of the upper main body portion 120 are disposed.
In the present embodiment, the belt portion 170 is formed on the outer foot side and the inner foot side. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the belt portion 170 may be disposed only on the outer foot side. Only the belt portion 170 may be disposed.
By the way, as shown in FIG. 2, for example, a female side surface fastener 173, which is a belt surface fastener, is provided on the inner surface side of the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the outer foot side belt portion 172 (the side in contact with the upper main body portion 120). 173 are formed (portions indicated by hatching in FIG. 2), and thus the foot insertion opening 160 can be largely exposed.
Further, the corresponding upper main body portion 120 of the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the outer foot side belt portion 172 has an upper side surface fastener that can be engaged with the female side surface fastener 173. It is arranged at a place (the portion indicated by the oblique lines in FIG. 2).
The belt 170 is fixed to the upper main body 120 by the female side fastener 173 and the male side fastener 121 on the upper main body 120 being engaged with each other on the belt 170 side.

In addition, one of the female side fastener 173 and the male side fastener 121 is formed larger than the other in the longitudinal direction of the belt portion 170. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. In the longitudinal direction of 170, it is formed larger than the male side fastener 121 of the upper main body 120.
That is, since the female side surface fastener 173 on the belt portion 170 side is disposed in a wide range in the extending direction of the belt portion 170 as shown by the hatched portion in FIG. 2, the male side surface fastener of the upper main body portion 120 according to the foot. The position of the belt portion 170 with respect to the upper main body portion 130 can be changed by adjusting the engagement position with 121.
Specifically, the engagement position between the female side fastener 173 of the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the male side fastener 121 of the upper main body portion 120 is deepened or shallowed, The relative position with respect to the upper main body 120 is changed.
Similarly, the outer foot side belt portion 172 can also make the engagement position between the upper main body portion 120 and the male side surface fastener 121 deeper or shallower. These inner foot side belt portion 171 and the outer foot side belt portion 172 can be made shallower. The portion 172 is configured to be able to independently and independently change the position of the upper main body 120 according to the difference in the shape of the foot.

In this way, the relative position between the tongue-like contact portion 150 and the upper main body portion 120 can be adjusted only by attaching and detaching the belt portion 170, so that the contact strength of the tongue-like contact portion 150 with the infant's foot is increased. Can be easily adjusted.
Further, by adjusting the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the outer foot side belt portion 172 of the infant shoe 100 separately and independently, it is always possible to adjust to the foot regardless of the shape of the foot or the size of the foot. On the other hand, since the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the like are arranged at an appropriate position, the tongue can be held by the tongue-like contact portion 150.

Thus, in the present embodiment, the belt portion 170 and the upper main body portion 120 are engaged by the female side surface fastener 173 and the male side surface fastener 121, and the position of the belt portion 170 relative to the upper main body portion 120 can be changed. It has become.
Therefore, the foot can be fixed and released only by attaching and detaching the female side surface fastener 173 and the male side surface fastener 121, and can be operated very easily compared to the case where the foot is fixed by a string or the like.
As described above, since the position of the belt part 170 with respect to the upper main body part 120 can be easily adjusted, the infant's foot can be easily attached without distorting the infant shoe 100 corresponding to the difference in the size or shape of the infant's foot. It can be held by the infant shoes 100.

By the way, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a belt gripping portion 176 is formed on the front end side of the outer foot side belt portion 172 of the belt portion 170 so as to protrude from the outer foot side belt portion 172 toward the toe side. ing. In the present embodiment, the belt gripping portion 176 has an arcuate outer shape as a whole, and the female side surface fastener 173 that is substantially a belt side surface fastener is not disposed so that it is separated from the upper main body portion 120. It is supposed to be floating.
For this reason, when the infant or a guardian of the infant operates the outer leg side belt portion 172, the operation is facilitated by gripping the belt grip portion 176. In other words, in the case of an infant or the like that is difficult to operate with a fingertip or the like, the object tends to be held using the entire palm and protrudes toward the toe side below the belt portion 170 and slightly floats. It is possible to operate by grasping the entire palm using the belt gripping part 176 arranged at the position.
Further, since the belt gripping portion 176 is not disposed so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the outer leg side belt portion, the belt gripping portion 176 does not protrude toward the shoe sole portion 110 side. For this reason, when the infant walks while wearing shoes, the gripping portion does not come into contact with the ground or the like on the shoe sole side, and the belt gripping portion 176 does not prevent the infant from walking.

Further, the belt gripping portion 176 is not disposed so as to extend from the distal end portion of the outer foot side belt portion 172 in the longitudinal direction of the outer foot side belt portion 172, but is disposed so as to protrude toward the toe side.
For this reason, the infant shoe 100 is easy to recognize the presence of the belt gripping portion 176 and easily grips the belt gripping portion 176. Note that the outer surface of the belt gripping portion 176 may have a different color or texture so that it can be more easily recognized.

By the way, as shown in FIG. 1, the end portion of the outer leg side belt portion 172 is disposed close to the heel portion 130. That is, it is disposed in the vicinity of the counter unit 131 in the collar unit 130. The same applies to the inner foot side belt portion 171.
FIG. 3 is a schematic side view showing a state in which the outer leg side belt portion 172 of FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, female side fasteners 173 are disposed at least at the ends of the outer foot side belt portion 172 and the inner foot side belt portion 171. And as shown in FIG. 3, the male side surface fastener 121 is arrange | positioned in the counter part 131 vicinity of the corresponding upper main-body part 120 at least.
Therefore, since the outer foot side belt portion 172 and the inner foot side belt portion 171 are disposed near the counter portion 131 of the heel portion 130, the belt portion 170 and the upper portion 120 ensure that the infant's foot is directed toward the heel side. Can be held and held.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, since the flange portion 130 and the belt portion 170 are not directly fixed, the rigidity between them is lower than that of the counter portion 131.
By being configured in this manner, the space between the heel portion 130 and the belt portion 170 can be slightly deformed according to the deformation of the foot when the infant walks, and the foot is easily deformed and walks easily when the infant walks. Infant shoes 100 are provided.

Thus, by arranging the counter part 131, the rigidity of the heel part 130 of the infant shoe 100 is increased, and the heel of the infant's foot is accurately fixed to the heel part 130 and is easily held.
That is, when the tongue-like contact portion 160 and the belt portion 170 act so as to fix the infant's foot toward the heel portion 130 of the infant shoe 100, the infant's foot is directed toward the counter portion 131 with increased rigidity. Since the heel is pressed against the heel portion 130 of the infant shoe 100 and a force is applied in this direction, the foot heel is more reliably held by the heel portion 130 of the infant shoe 100, and the foot holdability is significantly improved.
In addition, since the rigidity of the counter portion 131 is high, it is possible to prevent the heel portion 130 from being deformed when the infant shoe 100 is worn, so that the child can easily attach and detach the shoe.
As described above, the infant shoe 100 of the present embodiment is a shoe that is easy to walk because the infant's foot is firmly fixed in the infant shoe 100 and is also easily bent when necessary.

As shown in the enlarged view of B, the female side surface fastener 173 of FIG. 3 has a large number of relatively flexible loop-shaped female members 173a. On the other hand, the male side fastener 121 of FIG. 3 has a male member 121a that is substantially J-shaped by cutting a part of the substantially U-shaped material having rigidity as shown in the enlarged view of C. Many are formed.
The substantially J-shaped projecting portions of the plurality of male members 121a are disposed along an obliquely downward direction (a direction toward the flange portion 130) in which the male side surface fastener 121 is disposed. And the front-end | tip part of the substantially J-shaped curved part 121aa (refer C of FIG. 3) of the male member 121a is curved and arrange | positioned with respect to the direction where the male side surface fastener 121 is arrange | positioned, for example. .
And when the female side surface fastener 173 and the male side surface fastener 121 of FIG. 3 engage, the loop-shaped member of the female member 173a will engage with the curved part 121aa of the male member 121a.

As described above, when the male member 121a and the female member 173a are engaged, when the infant peels the outer leg side belt portion 172 along the longitudinal direction of the male side surface fastener 121, it is the most difficult state to be peeled off. It becomes. That is, conversely, the belt portion 170 is most strongly fixed along the longitudinal direction. For this reason, it is the structure which can maintain the state which hold | maintained the infant's leg to the shoes more reliably.
Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the belt gripping portion 176 is disposed obliquely downward so as to protrude from the end portion of the outer foot side belt portion 172 toward the toe side. Therefore, when the infant grasps the belt gripping part 176 with the entire palm and tries to remove the outer leg side belt part 172 so as to be lifted upward, the outer leg side belt part 172 has the longitudinal direction of the male side surface fastener 121 of FIG. It is made to peel in an oblique direction with respect to the direction.
That is, since the above-described male member 121a and female member 173a are peeled away while avoiding the direction in which they are most strongly engaged, the female side surface fastener 173 and the male side surface fastener 121 are easily peeled off.
As described above, the belt gripping portion 176 according to the present embodiment is formed at a position where an infant or the like can easily remove the outer leg side belt portion 173.

  By the way, as shown in FIG. 2, the belt portion 170 is provided with an expansion / contraction portion 174 so as to connect the inner foot side belt portion 171 and the outer foot side belt portion 172. The stretchable part 174 is made of, for example, rubber.

In the present embodiment, since the expansion / contraction part 174 is disposed, even when the belt part 170 securely holds the infant's foot (for example, the state of FIG. 1), the infant takes off himself / herself. By applying a force to pull out the foot from the mouth portion 140, the stretchable portion 174 slightly extends, the tongue-like contact portion 150 moves obliquely upward, and the mouth portion 140 slightly expands, so that the infant shoes 100 can be easily expanded. Can be taken off.
Conversely, even when the infant wears the infant shoes 100 by himself / herself, the expansion / contraction part can be applied by applying a force to insert the foot into the mouth part 140 without loosing or removing the belt part 170 from the upper body part 120. 174 extends slightly and the tongue-like contact portion 150 moves obliquely upward, and the mouthpiece portion 140 slightly expands, so that the infant shoe 100 can be easily put on.
In addition, it is good also as a structure which does not form the expansion-contraction part 174 and uses only the belt part 170 which does not have a stretching property. In this case, it is configured that the instep is securely held by the tongue-like contact portion 150 on the assumption that the assistant wears it reliably.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a heel-side projecting piece that is extended so as to protrude from the mouthpiece part 140 and can be folded back and temporarily fixed on the upper part of the collar part 130 of the mouthpiece part 140 of the infant shoe 100. 132 is formed.
Engagement means such as a hook-and-loop fastener (not shown) are formed on the heel-side outer surface of the heel-side protruding piece 132 and the upper body 120, respectively.
As shown in FIG. 1, the heel-side protruding piece 132 is folded back and can be fixed to the outer surface of the upper main body 120 by adjusting its position. When temporarily fixed so as to be pulled toward the separated position (the buttock side), the opening of the wearing mouth portion 140 is deformed and spreads outward.
For this reason, when the infant wears or removes the infant shoes 100 by himself / herself, the structure is easy to put on and take off.
Further, when the tip of the heel-side protruding piece 132 is temporarily fixed at a position that does not deform the cuff portion 140 and the heel-side protruding piece 132 side of the upper main body 120 is raised, a high position above the heel of the foot The heel side of the cuff part 140 comes into contact until the foot hold ability is higher. In addition, it is configured so that the infant's guardian can easily put the infant's shoes on and off by releasing the temporary fixing of the heel-side protruding piece 132 and holding the tip.

(Second Embodiment)
FIG. 4 is a schematic perspective view showing an infant shoe 200 according to the second embodiment. Since many configurations of the infant shoe 200 of the present embodiment are the same as those of the infant shoe 100 of the first embodiment, description thereof will be omitted with the same reference numerals and the like, and the following description will be focused on differences.
As shown in FIG. 4, the infant shoe 200 is the same as the first embodiment in that it has an upper main body portion 220, a wear mouth portion 240, and the like. However, the tongue-like contact portion 250 is arranged inside the foot insertion opening 260 and is configured to open and close the belt portion 270 that is a separate body. Further, the belt portion 270 is configured to be attached and detached on the inner leg side of the upper main body portion 220 of the infant shoe 200.
That is, as shown in FIG. 4, a female side fastener 273 is formed on the inner surface (upper main body portion 220 side) of the inner leg side end portion of the belt portion 270.
On the other hand, a male side fastener 221 corresponding to the female side fastener 273 is formed on the upper main body 220 side.
For this reason, the belt part 270 can be fixed on the inner leg side of the upper main body 220 by engaging the female side fastener 273 and the male side fastener.
In addition, since the belt gripping portion 276 is formed at the end of the belt portion 270, as in the first embodiment, an infant or the like grips and lifts the belt gripping portion 276. The engagement between the female side fastener 273 and the male side fastener is easy to peel off.

(Third embodiment)
FIG. 5 is a schematic perspective view of the infant shoe 300 according to the third embodiment of the present invention in a state in which the tongue contact portion 350 is opened.
Since many configurations of the baby shoes according to the present embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted, and the differences will be mainly described below.
The infant shoe 300 has a tongue-like contact portion 350 integrally formed with the upper main body 320 along the outer leg side of the foot insertion opening 360 that is connected and extended from the mouth portion 360, The belt portion 370 extends so as to protrude from the side edge of the tongue-shaped contact portion 350 toward the inner foot side.
That is, the tongue-shaped contact portion 350 is configured to open from the inner foot side toward the outer foot side.

When the infant operates the belt portion 370 by himself, it is difficult to operate and adjust the belt portions 170 on the inner foot side and the outer foot side, so in the first embodiment, the helper such as a mother takes off. Although each belt portion 170 is operated when putting on, in the present embodiment, the belt portion 370 is formed only in one place, and is formed only on the inner foot side. ing.
By the way, when the inventor observed a state in which the belt portion was operated when wearing a pair of infant shoes with belts arranged on both sides for a plurality of infants, there were many infants who operated only the inner belt portion. It was. This is because infants often operate in the sitting position when the belt is operated, and since the hip joint is naturally open, it is easy to recognize the belt on the inner foot side and the inner side of the knee. This is because when the hand is extended from the outside, the distance is short compared to the outside of the knee, and the operation can be performed while visually recognizing.
For this reason, in the present embodiment, the belt portion 370 is disposed only on the inner foot side, and the engagement position on the outer foot side is not shifted by adopting a single-open structure in which the outer foot side cannot be adjusted. The infant shoes 300 are easy for infants to operate on their own.
In addition, the belt holding portion 376 disposed so as to protrude from the belt portion 370 can be operated with the entire palm, not the fingertip, and the belt portion 370 can be easily removed by an infant.

In the present embodiment, although the heel-side protruding piece 332 is formed, the upper main body portion is not temporarily fixed but is fixed so that the heel side of the cuff portion 340 extends to a position along the outside. It is fixed to the outer surface of the heel side of 320, and is configured only to be easily worn off by infants.
Since many of the other infant shoes 300 have the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, the ease of taking off and the holdability of the foot are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment. ing.
The tongue-like contact portion 370 and the upper body portion 320 are not integrally formed along the outer leg side of the foot insertion opening 360, but the tongue-like contact portion 370 as in the first embodiment. May be formed and stitched to the outer leg side of the foot insertion opening 160 of the first embodiment.

(Fourth embodiment)
FIG. 6 is a schematic perspective view showing an infant shoe 400 according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Since many configurations of the infant shoe 400 according to the present embodiment are common to the above-described embodiment, the description of the same configuration will be omitted, and the differences will be mainly described below.
The infant shoe 400 according to the present embodiment has substantially the same configuration as the infant shoe 300 shown in FIG. 5, and the tongue-like contact portion and the fixing belt portion are integrated as shown in FIG. The belt-integrated tongue contact portion 490 is formed.
FIG. 7 is a schematic perspective view showing a state in which the belt-integrated tongue contact portion 490 of FIG. 6 is opened.
As shown in FIG. 7, among the portions corresponding to the fixing belt portion of the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490, the inner surface facing the upper main body 420 is a belt surface fastener, for example, a female side surface fastener 473. Is formed.
On the other hand, on the outer surface of the upper body 420, for example, a male side fastener 421 that is an upper side fastener that can be engaged with the female side fastener 473 is formed.
Therefore, the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490 can be fixed to the upper main body 420 by bringing the female side surface fastener 473 into contact with the male side surface fastener 421.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the area of the female side fastener 473 is formed larger than the area of the male side fastener 421. Here, the longitudinal directions of the hook-and-loop fasteners 421 and 473 are substantially the same length, but in the width direction, the female side fastener 473 on the belt-integrated tongue contact portion 490 side is slightly more than the male side fastener 421. It may be formed large. Further, a region of a belt gripping portion 476 described later may be formed larger than that in FIG. Further, the lengths of the surface fasteners 421 and 473 in the longitudinal direction may be configured such that the female side surface fastener 473 is larger than the male side surface fastener 421.
Therefore, when the user abuts the female side fastener 473 against the male side fastener 421, the male side fastener 421 remains within the larger female side fastener 473 even if the relative positions of the two are slightly shifted. It is the structure which can be made to engage with. In other words, even a user who is immature with finger operation, such as an infant, can easily engage and fix both without accurately aligning the relative positions of the two.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the tip of the portion corresponding to the fixing belt portion of the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490 is a gripping portion formed to protrude toward the toe side. For example, a belt A grip portion 476 is formed.
As shown in FIG. 7, a female side surface fastener 473 is also formed on the inner surface of the belt gripping portion 476 (a portion where hatching in FIG. 7 intersects).

FIG. 8 is a schematic explanatory diagram showing the positional relationship between the belt gripping portion 476 of FIG. 6 and the upper main body 420 and the like.
As shown in FIG. 8, when the female side surface fastener 473 and the male side surface fastener 421 are engaged, at least a part of the belt gripping portion 476 is disengaged from the male side surface fastener 421 and the surface of the upper main body 420. It is in a state slightly lifted from.
Therefore, when the user holds the belt gripping portion 476 and opens and closes the belt-integrated tongue-like contact portion 490 in order to attach and detach the infant shoe 400, the belt gripping portion 476 becomes a cause of gripping. The structure is easy to hold. Therefore, the infant shoe 400 is easy for the user to operate.

By the way, as described above, the female side fasteners 421 and the like are formed only on the inner foot side (inner side) of the infant shoe 400 and are not formed on the outer foot side (outer side). Yes.
That is, the outer leg side of the belt-integrated tongue contact portion 490 is formed integrally with the upper main body 420 and is fixed to the upper main body 420.

As described above, only the inner foot side of the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490 is detachable, and the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490 is configured to open from the inner foot side toward the outer foot side. There are the following advantages.
The inventor who observed how an infant or the like attaches or detaches shoes discovered the fact that an infant attaches or detaches shoes by looking at the inner foot side from the outer foot side of the shoe. In other words, when attaching and detaching a shoe, the infant looks at the inner foot side of the shoe to operate with the crotch open.
Moreover, the hand used for attaching and detaching tends to use the hand on the same side as the foot (for example, the right hand in the case of the right foot). Given an infant shoe with a hook-and-loop fastener for attachment and detachment, such as a tongue-like contact portion, on the outer foot side of the shoe for an infant with such habits, and the infant tries to operate the hook-and-loop fastener of the belt , Legs and hands cross. Moreover, the operation | movement which opens a belt forces the motion (pronation operation) which moves a wrist, applying force toward the inside from the outer side of a body.
In general, an infant is difficult to perform such a pronation operation, and even if such a movement is forced, it is difficult to apply force.
For this reason, when a hook-and-loop fastener for attachment and detachment such as a tongue-shaped contact portion is arranged on the outer foot side of a shoe for such an infant with habit, the infant does not operate the hook-and-loop fastener in that state, I often wear shoes with the side with the hook-and-loop fastener on the inside where I can easily see it.
Then, the infant wears the shoes in the opposite direction. Infants wearing shoes in the opposite direction were more common than before, but the cause was found to be due to this behavior.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the male side surface fastener 421 of the belt-integrated tongue-shaped contact portion 490 is disposed only on the inner foot side of the infant shoe 400, thereby It is configured to be easy to wear while visually checking the infant shoes 400.
Moreover, by arranging in this way, it is possible to prevent an infant from wearing the infant shoes 400 in the opposite direction.

  The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. For example, a cushion part may be provided not only at the mouth part 170 but also at the mouth part side of the tongue-like contact part 150 so that the ankle is surrounded by the cushion part. The above-described embodiments may be configured in combination with each other.
