Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a platform shoe with a structure that overcomes the problem of discomfort and hurt caused by front rushes of the foot. By arranging troughs in the midsole and setting soft pads to correspond with the troughs, the shoe provides support to the arch of the foot and alleviates front rushes of the foot. This improves safety and comfortableness of the foot wearing the platform shoe.

Problems solved by technology

Such a condition readily causes damages to the foot 2.
This, together with the platform shoe 1 not supporting the arch 23 of the foot 2 of the user, would lead to excessive twist and deformation of the arch 23 of the foot 2 in walking and thus cause extreme discomfort of the foot 2, or in a worse condition, causing damage to the arch 23.
Thus, it is a challenge of the shoe manufacturing industry to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional platform shoe 1.

Abstract

A platform shoe includes an upper, a midsole, and an outsole. The upper is attached to the midsole and has a wearing opening. The midsole is attached to the outsole and includes a midsole bed and a front pad. The midsole bed has a posterior portion that is recessed to form a first trough. The front pad is mounted to an anterior portion of the midsole bed and is recessed to form a second trough and a third trough. The outsole includes a supportive section, a bottom section, and a shoe heel. The supportive section has a posterior portion to which the shoe heel is fixed. The bottom section is provided at an underside of the supportive section and the shoe heel. The bottom section has an anterior portion on which the bottom platform is formed. The troughs each receive and retain therein a corresponding soft pad.

Description

(a) TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention generally relates to a structure of a platform shoe, and more particularly to a structure of a platform shoe that alleviates front rushes of a foot in the platform shoe so as to improve the safety and comfortableness of the foot wearing the platform shoe.(b) DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART[0002]To enable an “instantaneous” increase of the body height of a consumer to a predetermined level, the footwear business provides a platform shoe 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the platform shoe 1 comprises an upper 11, a midsole 12, and an outsole 13.[0003]The upper 11 comprises a wearing opening 111. The upper 11 is attached, by means of adhesives or sewing, to the midsole 12. The combination of the upper 11 and the midsole 12 is then fixed to the outsole 13 to form a unitary structure by means of adhesives or sewing.[0004]The outsole 13 is generally manufactured in a unitary form through injection molding. The outsole 13 comprises a bottom...
