Abstract

The present invention provides a three-dimensional cross-linked foam for uppers of shoes that comprises a cross-linked foam body having a shape corresponding to a last; at least one inner cavity structure formed in the cross-linked foam body, the inner cavity structure defined by an internally formed surface of the cross-linked foam body; and filler injected into the inner cavity structure. The cross-lined foam of the present invention can more effectively protect the feet and increase a fitting feeling and a supporting power without additional components added to the cross-linked foam. The cross-linked foam of the present invention may further have an air ventilation and waterproof function.

       33 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 29 , wherein the plural inner cavity structures form groups consisting of connected inner cavity structures.  
   
   
       34 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 33 , further comprises an air passage connected to at least one of the plural inner cavity structures.  
   
   
       35 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 33 , wherein at least one of the plural inner cavity structures is filled with gas.  
   
   
       36 . A three-dimensional cross-linked foam for uppers of shoes, comprising: 
 a cross-linked foam body having a shape corresponding to a last;    at least one inner cavity structure formed in the cross-linked foam body, the inner cavity structure defined by an internally formed surface of the cross-linked foam body; and    filler introduced into the inner cavity structure.    
   
   
       37 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 36 , wherein unevenness is formed on the cross-linked foam body.  
   
   
       38 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 36 , wherein the filler includes at least one material selected from gas, liquid and same material as or different material from the cross-linked foam body.  
   
   
       39 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 38 , wherein the filler is introduced into a housing that is put into close contact with the internally formed surface.  
   
   
       40 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 36 , wherein plural inner cavity structures are formed in the cross-linked foam body and at least one of the plural inner cavity structures is filled with the filler.  
   
   
       41 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 40 , wherein the filler includes at least one material selected from gas, liquid and same material as or different material from the cross-linked foam body.  
   
   
       42 . The cross-linked foam according to  claim 41 , wherein the filler is introduced into a housing that is put into close contact with the internally formed surface.
