Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> This invention relates to a rider's boot having a protective pad that suppresses wear and tear due to contact between the boot and the road surface when riding a motorcycle.

<Conventional technology> Conventionally, rider boots have been formed with a wide toe area with a suitable amount of room for the toe, and generally the peripheral edge shape from the tip to the outer edge is curved and bulged. It was formed. In addition, in order to prevent wear and tear caused by contact between the boots and the road surface when the motorcycle rides on an incline on a curved road, a protective layer made of thick leather, etc. Pads were attached.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in rider boots with such a conventional structure, a protective pad is provided on the bulge from the tip of the boot body to the outer edge, and further protrudes above the bulge. Since the protective pad is attached to the motorcycle, the protective pad tends to come into contact with the road surface when the motorcycle rides at an incline, and therefore, the useful life of the protective pad is short. Therefore, if the protective pads were not frequently replaced or repaired, there was a risk that the upper would break.

<Means for solving the problem> This invention was made to solve the above problem, and the above-mentioned boot The main body has a cut portion in which the circumferential shape of the upper and the sole is formed with a linear notch from the vicinity of the tip to the outer edge, and the protective pad has a shape corresponding to the notch of the cut portion. This is a rider boot which is formed and attached to the cut portion.

<Function> This invention is constructed as described above, and the boot body is designed to prevent
The cut portion from the vicinity of the tip to the outer edge, which is most likely to come close to the road surface, is separated from the road surface by the length of the notch, and the upper of the cut portion is protected from the road surface by a protective pad.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of this invention will be shown in Figures 1 to 3.
This will be explained based on the diagram.

In the figure, 1 is a boot body, and the boot body 1 consists of an upper 5 and a sole 10, and a protective pad 15 is attached to a cut portion 4 on the periphery thereof.

The upper 5 is formed into a boot shape or a semi-long boot shape from natural leather, synthetic leather, etc., and its peripheral edge shape is closer to the upper end 6 than that of conventional rider boots. A cutout portion 8 is formed in a straight line from the top to the outside edge 7 of the upper 5, and has a substantially vertical surface in this portion of the upper 5.

The sole 10 is made of a thick flexible material such as a polymeric elastic material or synthetic leather, and its peripheral edge shape extends from the vicinity of the sole tip 11 to the outer edge 12 of the sole, similar to the upper 5. A notch is formed in a straight line,
A sole cut portion 13 having a substantially vertical surface is formed in this portion of the sole 10.

The upper 5 and sole 10 formed in this way are
The boot body 1 is integrally bonded together with the midsole. At this time, the upper cut part 8 and the sole cut part 13 are continuous, and are formed as a cut part 4 from the vicinity of the tip part 2 of the boot body 1 to the outer edge 3.

In the embodiment, the protective pad 15 is made of a synthetic resin with excellent abrasion resistance, such as polycarbonate reinforced with glass fiber, and its outer shape corresponds to the notch portion of the cut portion 4 of the boot body 1. In the embodiment, the thickness near the center of the upper shell 5 is approximately three times the thickness of the upper shell 5. One side of the protective pad 15 is attached to the cut portion 4 of the boot body 1 by adhesive, so that the other side of the protective pad 15 is attached to the above-mentioned upper 5 and the sole 10 before the notches are formed. It is formed to approximately match the peripheral shape of conventional rider boots.

According to the rider boots configured in this manner, the inward movement of the upper at the cut portion improves the feeling of fitting at the outer edge of the toe. Further, when the motorcycle runs on a slope on a curved road, the protective pad 15 of the boot body 1 on the inside of the curved road comes closest to the road surface. At this time, the cut portion 4 of the boot body 1 is separated from the road surface by the amount that forms the cutout, and even if the rider's boots come into contact with the road surface, the thick protective pad 15 has excellent abrasion resistance and remains in contact with the road surface. In contact, the boot body 1 is protected. To replace this protective pad 15, replace the worn protective pad 1.
5 from the cut part 4, and remove the new protective pad 1.
5 to the cut portion 4.

It should be noted that this invention is not limited to the configuration of the above-described embodiments, and the configuration of each part can be arbitrarily changed without departing from the technical idea of this invention. For example, although the cut portion is shown as having a straight cutout, the cut portion may be cut out in a curve with a large radius of curvature, that is, a curve close to a straight line.

<Effects of the invention> As explained above, the rider boots of this invention are rider boots in which protective pads are attached to the boot body consisting of the upper cover and the sole. The peripheral edge has a cut portion formed with a linear notch from the vicinity of the tip to the outer edge, and the protective pad is formed in a shape equivalent to the notch of the cut portion, and is attached to the cut portion. Because of the structure, the shape of the periphery including the protective pad is the same as the shape of the periphery of the boot body of conventional rider boots, and there is no protrusion like in the past. Therefore, there are fewer chances of the protective pad coming into contact with the road surface when the motorcycle is running on an incline.

Furthermore, since the upper of the cut portion is separated from the road surface by the length of the cut, wear and tear on the upper can be avoided.

Furthermore, compared to conventional protective pads, the protective pad can be made thicker by the amount corresponding to the cut portion, which has the effect of prolonging its useful life and reducing the effort required for replacement and repair.
