Shoe and sole insert therefor

Abstract

The disclosure concerns a shoe which is characterized in that internal areas of the shoe that face the foot of a wearer which delimit a shoe interior have an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 5 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey to the wearer a soft sensation.

1 . A shoe, having internal areas of the shoe that face the foot of a wearer which delimit a shoe interior in closed shoes, comprising an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 5 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey to the wearer a soft sensation. 
     
     
         2 . The shoe of  claim 1 , wherein the flock fibers have a length of about 0.3 mm to about 3 mm. 
     
     
         3 . The shoe of  claim 1 , wherein the flock fibers are embedded at a depth of least about 0.1 mm, in the adhesive resin coating. 
     
     
         4 . The shoe of  claim 1 , wherein the flock fibers are formed from cotton, viscose, artificial silk, polyamide, polyester, or acrylic. 
     
     
         5 . The shoe of  claim 1 , having internal areas of the shoe that face the foot of a wearer which delimit a shoe interior in closed shoes, comprising an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 3 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey to the wearer a soft sensation. 
     
     
         6 . A sole insert for a shoe which at least partially delimits a shoe interior and has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 5 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey a soft sensation to the wearer. 
     
     
         7 . The sole insert of  claim 6  which at least partially delimits a shoe interior and has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 3 mm whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey a soft sensation to the wearer. 
     
     
         8 . An arch support insert for a shoe which at least partially delimits a shoe interior and has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 5 mm, contained therein, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey a soft sensation to the wearer. 
     
     
         9 . The arch support insert of  claim 8 , comprising a support layer of hydrogel material on which the adhesive resin coating is applied. 
     
     
         10 . The arch support insert of  claim 9  which at least partially delimits a shoe interior and has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 3 mm contained therein, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey a soft sensation to the wearer. 
     
     
         11 . A shoe comprising a sole insert which has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers contained therein having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 5 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey to the wearer a soft sensation. 
     
     
         12 . The shoe of  claim 11  comprising a sole insert which has an adhesive resin coating with flock fibers contained therein having a thickness of about 0.5 dtex to about 5 dtex and a length of about 0.3 mm to about 3 mm, whereby the flock fibers face the foot of a wearer and convey to the wearer a soft sensation.
