Adjustable shoes

This creation is related to shoes; in particular, an adjustable shoe.

For almost all sports athletes or professional athletes, a pair of shoes can not only reduce the risk of injury, but also help improve the overall performance of the sport. Take the bicycle-specific shoes as an example. Only when the shoes are fully fitted, the single-handed force can be transmitted to the pedals most efficiently, and in this case, the riding experience is the most comfortable, the single rider's double The feet are also best protected. However, not everyone can easily find a pair of shoes that suits them, because some people's feet may be just between two sizes. In addition, each person's left and right feet are actually more or less difference. Although such differences are usually small enough to be uncomfortable, in order to pursue better athletic performance, athletes will certainly want the shoes on their feet to fit as much as possible, whether during cycling, skiing, snowboarding, mountaineering, etc. Of course.

At present, sporting goods manufacturers have introduced thermoplastic shoes to solve the above problems. The shoes can be shaped under high temperature to adjust to the athlete's foot shape and size. However, once the thermoplastic shoes have been shaped, they are only suitable for a single athlete and cannot be adjusted again during exercise. In other words, thermoplastic shoes are not instantly shaped when needed, and are quite limited in use. More importantly, the production cost of thermoplastic shoes is high, which is not conducive to the promotion of this type of products.

In view of this, the purpose of this creation is to provide an adjustable shoe that can be quickly adjusted in length and width according to different situations. The adjustment method is simple and instant, and is suitable for the foot wearing about the same size but different lengths and lengths. .

In order to achieve the above object, the adjustable shoe provided by the present invention comprises a shoe body, a wing piece, and a control device. The shoe body has an outsole and an upper, wherein the upper is disposed on the outsole. The flap has a movable portion and a fixed portion, wherein the movable portion is connected to the fixed portion, and the wing is disposed on the shoe body by the fixing portion. The control device connects the shoe body and the movable portion of the airfoil, and can drive the movable portion to swing in the direction of the upper to press the shoe body.

Thereby, the length and width of the adjustable shoe can be adjusted to a limited extent, so that it can perfectly match the size of the user's foot.
