Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to wet boots, and more particularly, to preventing slippage of feet in a water area such as a rocky area at a shore, a wet poolside, or a wet pavement, and a water field. The present invention relates to wet boots having a non-slip and step-on structure, which facilitates a stable walking and a re-establishment of a posture when slipping out of balance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Wet boots used in water places include diving wet boots, fishing wet tabi, work wet boots, beach sandals, and the like. At that time, if the outer bottom surface is flat, the outer bottom surface is very slippery and there is a danger of falling.Therefore, in order to prevent the feet from slipping, It is common practice to provide unevenness such as a plurality of grooves and depressions or to perform anti-slip processing.

[0003]

However, in the anti-slipping treatment by providing a plurality of grooves and depressions on the outer bottom surface of such footwear, a water area is simply formed. It is intended to improve the biting condition of the outer bottom surface against the walking road surface or walking floor surface, and to prevent the slipping of the feet by increasing the frictional force and the locking force, so that moss with slime It was impossible to cope with the presence of seaweed and the like.

[0004] Further, in the above-mentioned footwear, only the processing for preventing slipping of the feet is performed, so that if the feet are accidentally slipped, the stepping in the initial stage is not effective. In some cases, the vehicle suddenly fell down, and it was difficult to reestablish the stopping posture, which minimizes the slippage.

Further, in a wet boot used for diving, if the outer bottom surface has irregularities, the frictional force is increased as compared with a flat one, so that it is rather difficult to attach and detach the fin to and from the toe. Was something.

[0006] The present invention is intended to address such a problem, and by the completion of the invention described below, it is possible to not only hinder walking not only at a water place but also at normal walking, without any problem. It was able to achieve its purpose.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a member having a larger number of concave and convex engaging surfaces, and a member having a restoring force which is easily deformed by application of an external force, but immediately returns to an original state. Is provided on the outer sole of the footwear. And, by using two kinds of members having such different properties, it is possible to prevent slipping in a water area where the feet are slippery, and it is possible to step on to prevent slipping even if the feet slip. As a result, you can rebuild your posture and minimize the slippage.
Here, the wet boots referred to in the present invention include wet boots for diving, wet tabi for fishing, wet boots for work, beach sandals, and other wetsuits with boots that integrate wetsuits and wetboots, This means footwear mainly used in water places, including tights with boots that integrate tights and wet boots, and the like.

[0008]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION In the present invention, a non-slip member made of fibrous material and a stepping member having rubber-like elasticity are provided on the outer bottom surface of footwear. A felt material is preferable as the non-slip member, and a rubber material is preferable as the tension member. When the anti-slip member and the treading member are provided on the outer bottom surface of the footwear in this way, the anti-slip member made of fibrous material expands by absorbing moisture in a water place, and the surface becomes more three-dimensional. As a result, the unevenness appears remarkably and the anti-slip engagement will be reliably performed,
Since the tension member having rubber-like elasticity becomes flexible due to the absorption of moisture by the non-slip member made of fibrous material, reliable tension can be performed without affecting the deformation of the tension member due to the tension. Become.

[0009] It is preferable that the stepping member is formed at a portion corresponding to the tip and the base of the thumb, a portion corresponding to the little finger of the foot, and a portion corresponding to the heel of the foot on the outer sole surface of the footwear. In this case, the stepping member is located at each position where the center of gravity is most likely to be applied when the stepping is performed, so that the stepping can be performed more reliably.

Further, in the present invention, the stepping member may be formed integrally with the bottom of the footwear, and the entire surface of the bottom may be slid so that the stepping member formed integrally with the bottom is exposed to the surface. It is designed to be covered with a stop member. In this way, the stepping member which is easily loaded and the bottom of the footwear are not separated indiscriminately, so that the stepping member can withstand a larger load and the stepping member formed integrally with the bottom can be formed. The attachment of the non-slip member is facilitated with reference to the member.

In the present invention, the bottom of the footwear is tapered so as to become thinner from the heel to the toe. In this way, the center of gravity is slightly forward, and the load at the time of stepping on the portion corresponding to the base of the thumb of the foot and the portion corresponding to the base of the little finger of the foot is more easily applied. The load at the time of stepping on the part is more easily applied. Moreover,
Since the difference in thickness between the toe and the heel is increased, the fins can be easily attached without any gap.

Further, the invention of the present application is such that a non-slip member is detachably attached to the bottom of footwear. By doing so, it becomes possible to repair and replace only the non-slip member worn out by walking, and the footwear body can be used for a long time.
