Definitions

  • This invention relates to waterproof breathable footwear, and it's method of production. More particularly it relates to footwear that is water proof, but is water vapor permeable, and is desired to be close fitting as would be required for dress, casual and other similar footwear applications.
  • the invention concerns footwear with an upper, provided at least partially with a durably waterproof and preferably water vapor-permeable layer, which is hereinafter refered to as "functional layer”, and with an outsole, especially a glued-on outsole, and the use of a spacer strip and a gasket for sealing.
  • sock-like inserts also called booties in technical circles
  • booties have been used between the upper and sole structure, on the one hand, and an inner lining, on the other.
  • the use of booties is quite costly in manufacture, if the booties are to correspond to some extent to the corresponding shoe shape and achieve the desired fit.
  • Another known method consists of sealing the bottom of the footwear and the insole and the lower region of the upper, covered with the functional layer and optionally stitched to an insole, with outsole material of a molded-on outsole.
  • the spacer strip represents a barrier to water which has penetrated to below the region of the end of the upper on the sole side covered by the outsole, especially when a monofilament spacer strip is involved, so that such water cannot penetrate to the cut edge of the functional layer on the sole side and thus not reach the inner lining of the footwear.
  • Shoe designs are known, in which the -functional layer also has a projection beyond the outer material in the end region on the sole side, in which, however, no spacer strip is present.
  • the outsole material is molded directly onto the functional layer in the region of the projection. This method is also suited only for footwear with molded-on outsoles.
  • Shoe designs are known, in which the functional layer also has a projection beyond the outer material in the end region on the sole side, and in which the sole may be attached by cementing. In these designs, however, no spacer strip is present. In this case, the outer material and the functional layer are lasted to an insole board and the water proof seal is made with the use of a gasket or sealant.
  • These constructions require expensive manufacuture in that, in a first step, the functional layer is lasted to the insole board and, in a second step, the outer material is lasted to the functional layer, by way of a lasting machine. This two-step process required in the lasting machine provides a bottleneck in the footwear manufacturing process and greatly enhances the manufacturing costs.
  • the described invention overcomes these problems and still allows durably waterproof seals to be formed with the use of a gasket followed " by conventional application of the outsole including but not limited to either glueing on or molding on techniques of the outsole.
  • footwear is made available in which the upper end region on the sole side can be made permanently waterproof irrespective of the typ of outsole.
  • the invention is footwear comprising an upper, an insole and an outsole in which: the upper comprises an outer material layer having an outer side and an inner side, and a waterproof functional layer which is contiguous with at least a portion of the outer material layer inner side, and having an upper end region on the sole side that comprises an outer material layer end region and a functional layer end region, said functional layer end region having a projection extending beyond the outer material layer end region; a spacer strip connected on one side to the outer material layer end region and on the other side to the end of the functional layer end projection, such that it is contiguous with the projection; said functional layer end region and said spacer strip are located at the underside of the insole and the functional layer end region is attached to the underside of the insole by lasting adhesive; a gasket adhered to the underside of at least a part of the spacer strip in a manner which results in a waterproof sealing zone at the functional layer at least in a part of the spacer strip; and said outsole overlaps the underside of said gasket
  • Footwear according to the invention has an upper, an insole material, a spacer strip, and an outsole, in which the upper is constructed with an outer material and with a waterproof functional layer which is contigous with at least a portion of the outer material on its inside, and has an upper end region on the sole side with an outer material layer end region and a functional layer end region.
  • the functional layer end region has a projection that extends beyond the outer material layer end region.
  • a spacer strip is located between the outer material layer end region and the end of the functional layer end region.
  • Said functional layer end region, said spacer strip and possibly said outer material layer end region are folded around the outer perimeter of the insole so as to overlap the underside of the insole and are attached to the underside of the insole by a lasting adhesive.
  • a sealing zone is provided along the inner perimeter of the upper end region and comprises a part of the functional layer end projection which at least partially overlaps the spacer strip.
  • the gasket covers at least the sealing zone and possibly also the insole and/or the entire spacer strip and possibly also the outer material layer end region.
  • the presence of the spacer strip allows a durably water proof seal to be formed between the functional layer end region and the gasket, while it also allows a reliable attachment of the outer material layer end region to the insole without lasting the outer material layer end region to the underside of the insole and the functional layer, respectively. By doing so, the relatively large lasting overlap of the outer material layer over the underside of the insole is avoided. Consequently, the corrugations or wrinkles are substantially reduced or no longer present at all.
  • the outsole can be any type of outsole, for example a molded-on outsole or conventional glued-on outsole. With a conventional glued-on outsole, it is preferred to have the upper end region extending at least a short distance in parallel to the underside of the insole.
  • the upper end region may end perpendicular to the bearing surface of the outsole, i.e. without being folded to the underside of the insole.
  • the outsole is attached to the underside of the gasket and/or the insole and/or the outer material layer end region and/or a filler material.
  • the spacer strip has to be permeable for the gasket adhesive or the molten gasket material (in the broadest meaning the term "gasket material” should include the gasket adhesive as well as the meltable gasket material).
  • the spacer strip is an open mesh material formed from thermoplastic mesh materials, or a textile material or of any other materials. It could take any form including, staples, large loop or long stitches, or similar structures.
  • the key attributes are to allow sufficient flow of the gasket material to allow a durably waterproof seal to be formed and to allow the transfer or sharing of load between the outer material and the functional layer.
  • a net or mesh of monofil fibers is particularity prefered.
  • One suitable form of the spacer strip is a mesh obtainable from Gebr. Jaeger GmbH.
  • a gasket is applied to cover the sealing zone, and optionally the entire insole area which is not covered by the functional layer end region, and to form a waterproof seal to the functional layer end region (sealing zone) through the spacer strip and to create durable waterproofness.
  • the outsole is then joined to the upper end region.
  • a waterproof outsole and alternatively a waterproof insole is used to complete the waterproofing of the shoe.
  • the insole and the outsole, respectively can be made of a waterproof material.
  • its surfaces facing in the completed shoe towards the other of outsole and insole, respectively, of the shoe can completely or partially, i.e. in the relevant portions thereof for ensuring waterproofness of the shoe, be covered with a functional layer. It is also possible to use a waterproof adhesive for attaching a non-waterproof outsole to ensure waterproofness of the shoe.
  • a gasket in a preferred embodiment consists of or comprises a solid polymer resin on at least the side facing the sealing zone.
  • the gasket is heated, e.g. by microwave radiation or in an IR flash activator (infrared heater) or heat tunnel, such that the side with the polymer resin becomes tacky or molten.
  • the gasket is then placed over the spacer strip.
  • the gasket in the desired location is then placed into a press with the shoe so that the gasket attaches itself to the functional layer projection.
  • the gasket can comprise a multitude of backer materials that are coated with a polymer resin coating (gasket adhesive) preferably having a lower melting point than the backer.
  • the backer may, for example, comprise a felt, woven or other type of textile material or a higher melting polymer.
  • the backer should not flow during the pressing step, but the polymer resin (gasket adhesive) should flow to be able to provide a waterproof barrier.
  • the backer should have some level of puncture resistance such that it does not get damaged during the pressing step.
  • the polymer resin softens and flows during the pressing step and forms a seal to the functional layer projection by penetrating the spacer strip. The purpose of this step is to make the resin flow through the spacer strip and seal to the functional layer projection.
  • the resin preferably also flows to some extent between the functional layer and the upper material layer end region to form a seal therebetween and additionally to attach the outer material to the functional layer.
  • the footwear is removed from the press. If the gasket covers the entire insole area as defined above or if the insole is waterproof, the footwear is now waterproof because the waterproof gasket (possibly in combination with the waterproof insole) seals off the bottom of the footwear.
  • the outsole is applied over this construction and attached to any of the underside of the gasket, the insole, the outer material layer end region and a filler material. If, however, the construction of the shoe without the outsole is not yet waterproof, it is necessary to attach a waterproof outsole to the underside of at least the gasket.
  • the gasket adhesive need not be thermoplastic and could be a curing material that is capable of flow, but solidifies on curing, but thermoplastic materials are the preferred method of application.
  • the adhesive can be polyurethane, polyethylene, silicone, epoxy, acrylic, latex, or thermoplastic elastomers or rubbers, provided they can form a seal to the projection and are flexible enough for this application.
  • the sealing function which was achieved in ordinary footwear of the aforementioned type with the outsole material, can be produced in the footwear according to the invention by heating or infra red (IR) flash activating the gasket material and flowing it through the spacer strip and bonding to the projection of the functional layer end region on the other surface side of the spacer strip, and leads to reliable waterproofness in the final shoe.
  • the adhesive or sealant that is part of the gasket is preferably a PU or thermoplastic urethane that is infra red (IR) flash activated or heated to be flowable, but can be any variety of materials that will function as adhesives and sealants.
  • the waterproofness of the sole structure of waterproof footwear can thus be achieved in extremely simple fashion and with extremely simple process steps.
  • the method according to the invention therefore leads to lower manufacturing costs for waterproof shoes.
  • Bonding and sealing of the gasket to form a seal is particularly intimate, if the activated (molten) material of the gasket is pressed mechanically against the sole using a pressing device like a sole press that is preferably suitable for this purpose and available from USM,

  • a sealing zone is defined in the outsole peripheral direction between the outer material layer end region and the functional layer end region, which leads to waterproofness around the sealing zone and the perimeter of the insole when the gasket is fastened to the functional layer end region through the spacer strip in the sealing zone. If the gasket material covers the entire insole material, the shoe is waterproof at this point. If the gasket chosen is of a nature that it is waterproof and non wicking, and can form a waterproof seal with the sole during the cementing of the sole, then it may not be necessary to cover the entire insole material. It can be sufficient to seal the sealing zone around the entire periphery of the shoe, and then to form a durably waterproof seal to a waterproof outsole through the use of outsole cement and the use of a waterproof outsole.
