Combined Shoe

Abstract

A combined shoe formed by a selected vamps and soles with different functions and appearances at any time, comprises a sole, a vamp and attaching means used to quick-connect the vamp and the sole for forming a whole shoe. The attaching means includes a front cap located in front of the sole for buckling the tip of the vamp; a hind cap located in the hind of the sole for buckling the heel of the vamp; two pairs of matched anti-slide plates located in half-soles / heels of both vamp and sole for preventing relative sliding between the vamp and the sole; and a plurality of pressing means used for pressing the vamp on the sole tightly. The combined shoes provide a multitude of combinations and reduce the shoe purchasing cost. Since the vamp and the sole can be disassembled and assembles quickly, when the wearer enters a room, he needs only remove the sole for keeping the cleanliness of the room and still can keep his feet warm and / or prevent the diffusion of foot odor.

Description

FIELDThis disclosure relates to footwear. More particularly, it relates to a combined shoe which is freely combined from different soles and vamps (uppers) for getting different functions and appearances.BACKGROUNDUntil now, shoes have had a single function and appearance. For example, people wear tennis shoes when they play tennis, people wear dancing shoes when dancing, people wear overshoes when it is raining, etc. Each pair of shoes is combined by soles and vamps, these two parts are fixed together so that they are integrated and can not be separated.As the development of the science and the improvement of the manufacturing technology, people find that prior shoes have many shortcomings. One of the shortcomings is the waste of materials and work-hours. For example, dancing shoes have hard leathered half-soles so they easily glide on waxed floors, while the heel is made of rubber for easy stopping. The vamp is preferred to match the dress. So, there must be numerous dancing shoes...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

A technical problem is to address the above mentioned shortcomings, and to provide a kind of combined shoes which is matched by selected soles and vamps with different functions and appearances at any time. The disclosed shoe not only increases the number of combinations, but also is less expensive. For example, since the vamps and the soles can be separated and combined quickly, when a person enters a room, he only needs to remove the soles, the cleanliness of the room and the warmth of the feet can be kept and any foot odor will not diffuse.

In the above mentioned construction, the sole and the vamp are manufactured independently. They are combined to form a whole shoe just prior to using. The combined shoes have such an advantage for a user that he only needs to buy dozens of pairs of vamps of dancing shoes and one pair of soles for a dancing shoe, and dozens of pairs of soles of sport shoes and one pair of vamps for a sport shoe. Thus, the cost may be reduced in half while the functions remain unchanged. At the same time, it saves a large amount of materials and work hours.

When the wearer enters a room, he should only remove the soles and still wear the vamps which now only have thin soles. In so doing, dirty soles will never enter the room while people still have shoes on their feet. Therefore, in the winter, the wearer has warm feet; in the summer, the diffusing of foot odor is avoided. To the whole society, public indoor use shoes are saved and a good traditional Japanese habit is revived. To compare the combined shoes with prior art, this combined shoe has the advantages of ease of use, large numbers of combinations and a cost reduction to as much as half.

Problems solved by technology

A technical problem is to address the above mentioned shortcomings, and to provide a kind of combined shoes which is matched by selected soles and vamps with different functions and appearances at any time.
