Asymmetrical upper of shoe
Abstract
An asymmetrical shoe upper is combined in a shoe body. The shoe upper at a medial side of a foot dorsum inclines to a lateral side of the shoe upper and to a front end of a foot sole so as to form an asymmetrical design. Accordingly, when wearing the shoe body, muscles of the foot dorsum are constrained by the shoe upper. At this time, the shoe upper affects pressures applied onto the medial and lateral sides of the foot dorsum. Thereby, based on the lever principle, the foot can be automatically adjusted so as to form a specific angle such that a heel has a medial side not constrained by the shoe upper at the medial side of the heel, and an inverted ankle can be avoided.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An asymmetrical shoe upper combined in a shoe body, wherein the shoe upper at a medial side of a foot dorsum inclines to a lateral side of the shoe upper and to a front end of a foot sole so as to form an asymmetrical design, wherein when wearing the shoe body, muscles of the foot dorsum are constrained by the shoe upper, wherein the shoe upper affects pressures applied onto the medial and lateral sides of the foot dorsum, wherein based on the lever principle, the foot is automatically adjusted so as to form a specific angle such that a heel has a medial side not constrained by the shoe upper at the medial side of the heel, wherein the lateral side of the shoe upper over the foot dorsum inclines to the foot sole such that the foot sole has a lateral side not constrained by the lateral side of the shoe upper.
2 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 1 , wherein the shoe body has no shoelaces, wherein the shoe upper corresponding to the foot dorsum has an inclined stop surface, wherein a shoe opening has an apex defined as a base point set with a horizontal line at an angle between 5 and 50 degrees to the shoe upper close to a medial side of the shoe upper.
3 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 2 , wherein the shoe body comprises a leather shoe.
4 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 2 , wherein the shoe body comprises a boot.
5 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 2 , wherein the shoe body comprises a sandal.
6 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 1 , wherein the shoe body comprises a shoelace, wherein the shoe upper comprises medial and lateral eyelet stays and a shoe tongue, wherein the medial eyelet stay and a medial side of the shoe tongue have more projection in a direction towards the shoe opening than the lateral eyelet stay and a lateral side of the shoe tongue.
7 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 6 , wherein the shoe body comprises a sneaker.
8 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 6 , wherein the shoe body comprises a casual shoe.
9 . The asymmetrical shoe upper of claim 6 , wherein the shoe body comprises a running shoe.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
