Chain-Linked Insoles

Abstract

A protective insole, designed with a chain-linked layer or similarly virtually impenetrable layer, which is preferably placed within a shoe as an additional sole, meant to augment the original sole of a shoe, thereby preventing nails or other sharp objects from penetrating the entirety of the shoe and causing harm to the individual. The central portion of the insole is designed to be flexible, providing for the easy installation and removal of the insole within the shoe. The chain-links are preferably rubberized to provide comfort to the user, and are sized to fit the shoe they are designed to fit within.
