High top golf shoe

Abstract

The present disclosure generally relates to high top golf shoes. The high top golf shoes may include an upper portion that limits angle rotation in a first direction different than in a second direction. The high top golf shoes may include an upper portion that includes material which flexes when in compression and that resists stretching when a tensile force is applied. The high top golf shoes may include an upper portion having different material than a mid-portion.

1 . A pair of high top golf shoes, comprising:
 a right shoe including a right sole, a right mid-portion and a right upper portion, wherein the right upper portion includes first right material on a right inner side and a second right material on a right outer side;   the first right material on the right inner side limits right ankle rotation in a first direction to less than a first angle; and   the second right material on the outer right side limits right ankle rotation in a second direction to less than a second angle, wherein the first angle is different than the second angle;   a left shoe including a left sole, a left mid-portion and a left upper portion, wherein the left upper portion includes first left material on a left inner side and a second left material on a left outer side;   the first left material on the left inner side limits left ankle rotation in a third direction to less than a third angle; and   the second left material on the outer left side limits left ankle rotation in a forth direction to less than a forth angle, wherein the third angle is different than the forth angle.   
     
     
         2 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein the first angle is different than the third angle. 
     
     
         3 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein the second angle is different than the forth angle. 
     
     
         4 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first right material, the second right material, the first left material or the second left material flexes when compressive forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         5 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first right material, the second right material, the first left material or the second left material substantially resists stretching when tensile forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         6 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the right upper portion or the left upper portion further comprises a Velcro fastener to secure the respective upper portion around a respective lower leg of a user above a respective ankle. 
     
     
         7 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 6 , wherein at least one of the right mid portion or the left mid portion further comprises shoe string and lacing features to secure the respective mid portion to a respective foot of a user. 
     
     
         8 . The pair of high top golf shoes of  claim 1 , wherein the right upper portion includes a different material than the right mid portion and the left upper portion includes a different material than the left mid portion. 
     
     
         9 . A high top golf shoe, comprising:
 a sole, a mid-portion and an upper portion, wherein the upper portion includes first material on an inner side and a second material on an outer side;   the first material on the inner side limits ankle rotation in a first direction to less than a first angle; and   the second material on the outer side limits ankle rotation in a second direction to less than a second angle, wherein the first angle is different than the second angle.   
     
     
         10 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 9 , wherein at least one of the first material or the second material flexes when compressive forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         11 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 9 , wherein at least one of the first material or the second material substantially resists stretching when tensile forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         12 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 9 , wherein the upper portion further comprises a Velcro fastener to secure the upper portion around a respective lower leg of a user above a respective ankle. 
     
     
         13 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 12 , wherein the mid portion further comprises shoe string and lacing features to secure the mid portion to a respective foot of a user. 
     
     
         14 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 9 , wherein the upper portion includes a different material than the mid portion. 
     
     
         15 . A high top golf shoe, comprising:
 a mid-portion and an upper portion, wherein the upper portion includes first material on an inner side and a second material on an outer side;   the first material on the inner side limits ankle rotation in a first direction to less than a first angle; and   the second material on the outer side limits ankle rotation in a second direction to less than a second angle, wherein the first angle and the second angle allow a user to swing a golf club without ankle rotation limitation.   
     
     
         16 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 15 , wherein at least one of the first material or the second material flexes when compressive forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         17 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 15 , wherein at least one of the first material or the second material substantially resists stretching when tensile forces are applied linearly along the respective material. 
     
     
         18 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 15 , wherein the upper portion further comprises a Velcro fastener to secure the upper portion around a respective lower leg of a user above a respective ankle. 
     
     
         19 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 18 , wherein the mid portion further comprises shoe string and lacing features to secure the mid portion to a respective foot of a user. 
     
     
         20 . The high top golf shoe of  claim 15 , wherein the upper portion includes a different material than the mid portion.
