Benefits of technology

[0008]The outsole with an embedded fabric layer in accordance with the present invention comprises a fabric layer and an outsole. The fabric layer has a top surface and a bottom surface. The outsole has a bottom surface and multiple non-slip protrusions. The bottom surface of the outsole is attached to the top surface of the fabric layer. The non-slip protrusions are formed integrally on the bottom surface of the outsole, extend through the fabric layer and protrude out from the bottom surface of the fabric layer. With the non-slip protrusions, the outsole can provide excellent anti-slip effect and aesthetically pleasing decoration. Additionally, import tariffs on the outsole may be lowered because the shoe is a composite material.

Problems solved by technology

However, the conventional outsole may be slippery for lack of non-slip structures on the bottom surface of the conventional outsole.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]With reference to FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4, an outsole with an embedded fabric layer in accordance with the present invention comprises a fabric layer (20, 20A) and an outsole (10, 10A).

[0015]The fabric layer (20, 20A) is porous, allows melted plastic materials to pass through and has a top surface, a bottom surface, multiple ribbed protrusions and multiple ribbed recesses. The ribbed protrusions are formed parallelly on the bottom surface of the fabric layer (20) and may be straight lines or wavy lines. The ribbed recesses are defined in the top surface of the fabric layer (20) and correspond respectively to the ribbed protrusions.

[0016]The outsole (10, 10A) is plastic and has a bottom surface, an optional heel (11), multiple ribbed protrusions and multiple non-slip protrusions (12, 12A).

[0017]The bottom surface of the outsole (10, 10A) is attached to the top surface of the fabric layer (20, 20A).

[0018]The heel (11) is formed on and protrudes from the bottom surface of the outsole...

Abstract

An outsole with an embedded fabric layer has a fabric layer and an outsole. The fabric layer has a top surface and a bottom surface. The outsole has a bottom surface and multiple non-slip protrusions. The bottom surface of the outsole is attached to the top surface of the fabric layer. The non-slip protrusions are formed integrally on the bottom surface of the outsole, extend through the fabric layer and protrude out from the bottom surface of the fabric layer. With the non-slip protrusions, the outsole can provide excellent anti-slip effect and aesthetically pleasing decoration. Additionally, import tariffs on the outsole may be lowered because the shoe is a composite material.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of Invention[0002]The present invention relates to an outsole, and more particularly to an outsole with an embedded fabric layer.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]A conventional outsole is formed using plastics and rubbers. However, the conventional outsole may be slippery for lack of non-slip structures on the bottom surface of the conventional outsole.[0005]Additionally, because the conventional outsole is made of plastic materials, some countries may charge larger tariffs on the conventional outsole than other outsoles comprising different materials including a cloth cover.[0006]To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides an outsole with an embedded fabric layer to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0007]The primary objective of the present invention is to provide an outsole with an embedded fabric layer that can form multiple non-slip protrusions on the fabric layer.[0008]...
