Fighting Footguards {FOOT PROTECTION DEVICE FOR A FIGHT}

The present invention relates to a foot protector worn to protect the foot during martial arts practice / competition such as taekwondo. More specifically, the ankle protective cover is coupled to the outer shell, and the ankle protective cover comprises a coupling portion and a flap portion, the coupling portion is fixedly coupled to the ankle portion, and the flap portion is not fixedly coupled to the outer shell between the instep and the ankle. The present invention relates to a grappling foot protector that allows the foot to move freely with the ankle protection.

In general, martial arts such as kick boxing, karate, kung fu, judo, aikido and taekwondo can be divided into hand and foot techniques. In particular, the kicking technique is advantageous to attack the opponent and threatening attack can be a lot of technology has been developed and the amount of practice is also required a lot.

Martial arts including taekwondo as described above, wearing a uniform or protective gear on the body, it is common to practice and play barefoot without wearing anything on the feet. If you wear socks, it is too slippery, if you wear shoes can be shocked to the other side, and most of all, if you wear socks or shoes it is common to use bare feet because you can not learn the desired position. However, if you are barefoot, many injuries occur.

For example, in taekwondo, kicking techniques may be roughly classified into front kicking techniques, side kicking techniques, and rear kicking techniques. In particular, the forward kick technique that strikes the opponent's side with the instep among the front kick technique is the most used attack technique. At this time, the opponent will extend the arm to prevent the kick attack in the 'blocking' posture, in the process of injuring the instep of the player attacked with the forward kick hit the elbow of the opponent, such as severe swelling or bruises It often happens. Most of these injuries occur in front of large competitions where a lot of athletes are trained.

By the way, the protector to protect the arms and legs of the athletes are being developed a lot, but the protector to protect the foot is not developed and is simply replacing the Taekwondo shoes made lighter than ordinary shoes. In addition, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0199704 proposes an instep protector that is used to attach to Taekwondo shoes.

However, the taekwondo shoe according to the prior art and the foot protector used to be attached to the taekwondo shoe can protect the wearer's own foot, but there is a problem of injuring the other party due to weight and dull appearance. Above all, in martial arts practice that requires high agility because the movement of the foot, especially the movement of the toe, is not free within the taekwondo, there is a problem that the movement is not easy and the desired posture cannot be acquired.

Accordingly, the inventors of the present invention provide a foot protector that can protect the foot and prevent injuries during practice, while freeing the movement of the toes as in bare feet as possible, and having a high wits without slipping with the ground.
