  • the upper 102 is cut as a flat pattern comprising opposing halves, to which the lining 103 is then applied.
  • the panels 150A and 150B (for example, as shown in Figure 6) are then attached to the upper 102 and lining 103 (not shown) to arrive at the piece shown in Figure 7A.
  • panels 150A and 150B are identical and mirror images of each other, and are attached to medial and lateral sides of the upper.
  • the panels 150A, 150B may be attached by either gluing or stitching the panels 150A, 150B to the lining 103 or upper 102, or by a combination of gluing and stitching.
  • Figure 7A shows the panels 150A, 150B attached to the upper 102 by the stitch line 141, which sits along or adjacent to the second edges 156A, 156B.
  • Figure 7B shows an intermediate step in the assembly process, wherein the two panels 150A and 150B are brought towards each other (as indicated by the dashed arrows) to be connected by folding the piece of Figure 7 A along a longitudinal axis of the shoe 100.
  • the axis generally corresponds to the elongate axis of the wearer’s foot.
  • the panels 150A and 150B are connected along their first edges 151 A, 15 IB, and may be connected by stitching such as by a centre stitch 148 to form the reinforcing structure 140 and the shoe 100 as shown in Figure 1C.
  • the panels 150A and 150B may be further secured along and adjacent to their first edges 151 A, 15 IB by additional stitching on the inside of the shoe 100, and on the outside of the shoe 100 with the backstrap 107 to arrive at the embodiment shown in Figures 4A and 4B.
  • the outsoles 108, 109, insoles 118, 138, and straps 146 may then be applied.
  • the steps of the construction process disclosed herein may be performed in a different order; for example, the panels 150A and 150B may be assembled separately to the shoe upper 102 to form the reinforcing structure 140 of Figure 5, and then inserted through the opening 104 in the manner of an insole.
  • the reinforcing structure 140 is attached to the upper 102 by stitching and/or adhesive.
  • the stitch line 141 attaches the semi-rigid material starting at the top of the heel section, extending down and forward along a line through the side or back quarter of the shoe and extending into and through the arch section.
  • the stitch line 141 connects the reinforcing structure 140 to one or both of the upper 102 and the lining 103.
  • the backstrap 107 generally follows the longitudinal direction of the shoe 100.
  • the backstrap 107 runs along a centre-line of the shoe 100 from the top of the heel section 110 and into the arch section 120.
  • the reinforcing structure 140 continues through the arch section 120 and into the forefoot section 130 to join the front outsole 109 to form a semi-rigid, but flexible support structure for the shoe 100.
  • a suitable adhesive is a polychloroprene-toluene adhesive such as manufactured by Hung Li Resin Manufacturing Co. Ltd, which comprises 20-25% polychloroprene and 60-75% toluene.
  • Polychloroprene-toluene adhesives bond quickly, resist higher temperatures, and can provide strong adhesion between materials such as leather and neoprene.
  • a silicone-based adhesive may be used. Silicone adhesives have elastic properties across a wide temperature range which has advantages in the context of the frequent and robust movements that a dancer subjects their footwear to.
  • the reinforcing structure 140 may also provide proprioceptive effects where the wearer experiences improved tactile feedback, which may provide benefits such as an improved awareness of their foot position. This tactile feedback may help to remind the wearer to work their foot against the floor (improving muscle strength) and/or to remind the wearer to place their lower leg in a neutral alignment (reducing the likelihood of foot pronation and/or supination).
  • Figure 8 shows a section view of the assembled shoe 100.
  • the undulating profile of the first edges 151 A, 151B means that when the concave and convex edges are connected, the reinforcing structure 140 is biased to form the concave and convex surfaces in the heel portion 142, the arch portion 143, and the forefoot portion 144, without external support or structures.
  • the convex and concave edges provide curvature in both lateral and longitudinal directions around the back, bottom and sides of the heel so that the heel section 110 has a cupped shape that generally follows the contours of the wearer's heel without the need for moulds.
  • the convex and concave edges provide curvature in both lateral and longitudinal directions around the back, bottom and sides of the arch section 120, so that when the shoe 100 is assembled by stitching together the first edges 151 A, 15 IB, the arch section 120 is biased to have a concave shape.
  • the arch section 120 generally follows the contours of a dancer's arch without the need for moulds to shape the shoe beforehand.
  • the cumulative effect of integrating the cupping of the heel and the arch contour into the geometry of the panels 150A, 150B may, in some embodiments, at least reduce the need for an external support structure to achieve this shoe shape, particularly in the arch section 120, and may consequently reduce bulkiness.
  • a less bulky shoe may have advantages in lighter weight, improved foot flexibility, or in providing the wearer with an improved“feel” or“connection” to the floor which may have benefits regarding dancing technique and performance.
  • Each of the panels 150A, 150B may be formed from a single piece of material.
  • different pieces and types of material having different material characteristics may be used to form the semi-rigid material through the heel section 110 and the arch section 120, for example. In doing so, this may provide different levels of resistance in different parts of the shoe 100 and thus adjust the level of proprioceptive feedback.
  • the level of proprioceptive feedback through the arch section 120 may be adjusted through the addition of a further support or reinforcing structure, as shown in Figures 9A and 9B.
  • a small, thin, elongate flexible board 180 may extend through the arch section 120 and marginally into the heel and forefoot sections 110, 130, without extending through those sections.
  • the board 180 extends through the arch section 120 and through the heel section 110 wherein it may extend to the opening 104.
  • the purpose of the board 180 is to provide a supplement to the reinforcing structure 140 through the arch section 120, providing greater resistance to flexion of the foot and providing additional support to the arch.
  • the amount of resistance and the amount of arch support may be varied by varying the dimensions of the board 180.
  • the flexible board 180 may have a lateral width roughly the same as, or within about 20% of, the width of the semi-rigid material of reinforcing structure 140 through the arch section 120.
  • the flexible board 180 may be positioned along a longitudinal direction, such as a centre line, of the shoe 100 or slightly offset therefrom.
  • the board 180 may comprise a pulp board material, such as a“texon board” as is made by Texon International, or a similar board material.
  • the thickness of the board 180 may be around 0.5 mm to around 0.8 mm, and optionally around 0.6 mm.
  • Board 180 may be generally rectangular or slightly trapezoidal, or with slightly curved or flared ends.

  • the board 180 and/or the board 185 extends into the forefoot section 110, and may extend to be under the ball of the wearer’s foot.
  • the reinforcement provided by boards 180, 185 continues into the forefoot section 110 and is able to follow the contours of the wearer’s foot along most of its length. In particular, this provides support when the wearer’s foot is in pointe position.
  • Some embodiments may use the aforementioned polychloroprene-toluene adhesive or silicone adhesive to couple the second board 185 to board 180.
  • the second board 185 may be of similar material to board 180, and in some embodiments, the second board 185 substantially spans the length of the arch section 120, and may further extend into and/or through the heel section.

  • the boards 180, 185 may be positioned as an insert inside the shoe 100 and may be stitched or adhered between the upper 102 and the semi-rigid material of reinforcing structure 140, or between the semi-rigid material of reinforcing structure 140 and the lining 103.
  • boards 180, 185 may be stitched or adhered to one or both of lining 103 and outsole region 106 and sandwiched therebetween.
  • the boards 180, 185 may be glued in between the upper 102 and the reinforcing structure 140, before they are attached together.
  • the boards 180, 185 may be attached to each of the panels 150A, 150B, adjacent to or adjoining edges 151 A and 15 IB, as shown in Figure 9C, so that they resemble a single piece when edges 151 A and 15 IB are connected.
  • the board 180 and/or board 185 follows the contours of the wearer’s foot when the wearer points their foot.
  • the upper 102 and/or lining 103 is connected to board 180, this results in the upper 102 and/or lining 103 following the shape of the board 180, 185 and the shape of the wearer’s foot.
  • this may reduce wrinkling, puckering, bunching, or buckling of the upper/lining material in the forefoot section 130 and around the front outsole 109, particularly when the foot is pointed, creating a more streamlined, aesthetically pleasing appearance of the shoe 100.
