Description

  The present invention relates to a foot cover that exhibits excellent moisture absorption / release properties by using a novel fabric.

  The foot cover is a type of modified sock used when wearing women's pumps shoes, men's slip-on shoes, and the like, and is for exposing the instep of the foot to make it look as if it were worn barefoot.

  As a material for the foot cover, cotton, polyester, and the like are generally used as in the case of socks. However, foot covers made of these materials have poor moisture absorption and desorption properties, so that when they sweat, they tend to be stuffy, and may give off-flavors or give an unpleasant feeling.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional foot cover, and has an object of excelling in moisture absorption and desorption, and does not generate an unpleasant odor even when sweating, and provides a comfortable feel. Is to provide a foot cover that holds the

  The inventor of the present invention has intensively studied the material of the fabric constituting the foot cover in order to solve the above-mentioned problem. We found that we could do it, and finally came to the present invention.

  That is, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the foot comprises a toe for accommodating the toe, a heel for accommodating the heel, and a sole connecting the toe and the heel, and does not cover the instep. In the cover, there is provided a foot cover, wherein a fabric constituting the foot cover is a mixture of silk yarn and polyurethane yarn.

  Further, according to the second aspect of the present invention, the toe comprises a toe for accommodating the toe, and a strap extending from both sides of the toe and extending around the upper part of the heel. A foot cover which does not cover the bottom and the lower part of the heel is characterized in that the fabric constituting the foot cover is a mixture of silk yarn and polyurethane yarn.

  The foot cover of the present invention is excellent in moisture absorption and desorption properties, and has an effect that a comfortable feeling can be maintained without generating an unpleasant odor even when sweating.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing a foot cover according to the first aspect of the present invention in a worn state, in which (a) is a side view, (b) is a top view, (c) is a bottom view, and (d) is a rear view. is there.

  As understood from FIG. 1, the foot cover according to the first aspect of the present invention includes a toe portion 1 for accommodating a toe, a heel portion 2 for accommodating a heel, and a sole portion 3 for connecting the toe portion 1 and the heel portion 2. ing. Further, since the foot cover does not cover the instep 4, the foot cover is not exposed from the pump or the like even when the pump or the like is worn.

  Such a foot cover can be manufactured by any conventionally known method.For example, two cloths, a cloth forming the upper part of the toe and a cloth forming the lower part of the toe, the sole and the heel, are prepared and these are prepared. To form a toe, and then grip and join the end corresponding to the heel of the latter fabric to form a three-dimensional structure suitable for accommodating the heel.

  Rubber (not shown) is provided on the periphery of the foot opening of the foot cover to enhance the wearability of the foot cover. Further, an elastic body (not shown) may be attached to the inside of the heel portion 2 to make it difficult for the foot cover to slide down from the heel. The elastic body may be a semicircular member formed of a thin sponge, urethane, or the like.

  The shape of the toe portion 1 can be changed depending on the shape of the shoe, and in the case of a shoe having an extremely large exposure of the instep, the covering area of the toe portion 1 may be made smaller than that shown in the figure. In the case of shoes having a small degree of exposure of the upper, the covering area of the toe portion 1 may be made larger than that shown in the figure. The point is that the foot cover should only extend beyond the shoes and cannot be seen.

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing a foot cover according to the second aspect of the present invention in a worn state, in which (a) is a side view, (b) is a top view, (c) is a bottom view, and (d) is a rear view. is there.

  The difference between the first and second aspects of the present invention lies in the area covered by the foot cover. That is, while the foot cover of the first aspect of the present invention covers all of the toe, sole and heel of the foot, the foot cover according to the second aspect of the present invention has a sole and a lower part of the heel after the arch. Do not cover. Specifically, as can be understood from FIG. 2, the foot cover according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a toe portion 1 for accommodating a toe, and a strap portion 5 extending from both sides of the toe portion 1 and orbiting the upper part of the heel. It does not cover not only the instep 4 but also the sole 7 and the lower part 8 of the heel behind the arch. Accordingly, the foot cover according to the second aspect of the present invention can minimize or minimize the exposure of the foot cover from shoes such as sandals, mules, etc. Can be. The foot cover having such a shape is provided for the first time by the present invention.

  Such a foot cover can be made by any method.For example, a part corresponding to the instep portion and the lower portion of the sole and the lower part of the heel after the instep portion and the arch portion is cut out from a circular knitted fabric having an appropriate diameter, and a It can be manufactured by suturing the tip of the part and the center of the strap.

  In the foot cover of the second aspect of the present invention, the shape of the toe portion 1 can be changed according to the shape of the shoe, similarly to the foot cover of the first aspect. Also, the shape of the strap portion 5 can be changed depending on the shape of the shoe. Further, in the foot cover shown in FIG. 2, the arch 6 is not covered, but of course, the lower side of the toe portion may be extended rearward to cover the arch 6. In short, it is only necessary that the foot cover protrudes from shoes such as sandals and mules and cannot be seen, or that the foot cover is minimal to protrude from these shoes.

  The greatest feature of the foot cover according to the first and second aspects of the present invention is that a so-called silk knit, which is a knitted silk yarn and a polyurethane yarn, is used as a fabric constituting the foot cover. With such a feature, the foot cover of the present invention can exhibit excellent moisture absorption and desorption while having sufficient expansion and contraction as a foot cover. The ratio between the silk thread and the polyurethane thread in the fabric is not particularly limited as long as it has a good fit as a foot cover, and may be, for example, 95% by weight of the silk thread and 5% by weight of the polyurethane thread. Further, as a knitting method, any conventionally known method used for knitting of socks or the like can be adopted, and for example, rib knitting (particularly, 1 × 1 rib knitting) or sheet knitting can be adopted.

  The foot cover of the present invention exhibits excellent moisture absorption and desorption properties because the fabric constituting the foot cover contains silk. Therefore, even if the foot cover of the present invention sweats, it immediately absorbs the sweat and releases it into the air, so that a comfortable feel can be maintained. In addition, since the water necessary for the growth of bacteria and the like is immediately diverted, the growth of bacteria and the like is suppressed, and no off-flavor is generated. In addition, since the foot cover of the present invention is made by knitting a silk thread with a polyurethane thread, it can have sufficient elasticity as a foot cover.

FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing the foot cover according to the first aspect of the present invention in a worn state. FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing the foot cover according to the second embodiment of the present invention in a worn state.
