Functional Socks

Abstract

Provided are functional socks including cushion members provided at center areas of bottom surfaces of a pair of left and right socks to maintain recessed areas of soles, and shock absorbing units provided at the cushion members and deformed by the weight transmitted to the recessed areas of the soles to attach the soles to shoes. The shock absorbing unit is formed at the bottom surface of the cushion member, and is selectively constituted by one of a honeycomb structure partitioned by a plurality of support ribs, a plurality of holes disposed parallel to a longitudinal direction of the sole, and a plurality of grooves disposed perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the sole. Side coating sections prevent the soles from being pushed outward, front and rear coating sections prevent slippage, and top coating sections attach toes and tops to shoes.

         2 . The functional socks according to  claim 1 , wherein the honeycomb structure ( 24 ) is formed in any one shape of a semi-circular shape, a circular shape, and a polygonal shape. 
     
     
         3 . Functional socks comprising:
 cushion members ( 20 ) provided at center areas of bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of a pair of left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B) to maintain recessed areas of soles; and   shock absorbing units provided at the cushion members and deformed by the weight transmitted to the recessed areas of the soles to attach the soles to shoes,   wherein the shock absorbing unit is formed at the bottom surface of the cushion member ( 20 ) and constituted by a plurality of holes ( 26 ) disposed parallel to a longitudinal direction of the sole.   
     
     
         4 . Functional socks comprising:
 cushion members ( 20 ) provided at center areas of bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of a pair of left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B) to maintain recessed areas of soles; and   shock absorbing units provided at the cushion members and deformed by the weight transmitted to the recessed areas of the soles to attach the soles to shoes,   wherein the shock absorbing unit is formed at the bottom surface of the cushion member ( 20 ) and constituted by a plurality of grooves ( 28 ) disposed perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the sole.   
     
     
         5 . The functional socks according to  claim 4 , wherein side coating sections ( 30 ) configured to prevent the soles from being pushed outward are provided at outer areas of the bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of the left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B). 
     
     
         6 . The functional socks according to  claim 5 , wherein the side coating section ( 30 ) is formed of at least two lines having a certain width and length parallel to the longitudinal direction of the sole. 
     
     
         7 . The functional socks according to  claim 6 , wherein front coating sections ( 40 ) configured to prevent slippage of big toes are provided at front areas of the bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of the left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B). 
     
     
         8 . The functional socks according to  claim 7 , wherein rear coating sections ( 50 ) configured to prevent slippage of heels are provided at rear areas of the bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of the left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B). 
     
     
         9 . The functional socks according to  claim 8 , wherein top coating sections ( 60 ) configured to attach toes and tops to shoes are provided at front areas of top surfaces ( 16 ) of the left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B). 
     
     
         10 . The functional socks according to  claim 3 , wherein side coating sections ( 30 ) configured to prevent the soles from being pushed outward are provided at outer areas of the bottom surfaces ( 12  and  14 ) of the left and right socks ( 10 A and  10 B).
