MISCELLANEOUS | 3 |
| 20080263893 | Apparatus for use in footwear and the like - An apparatus for use in footwear and the like, the apparatus having a primary body adapted to be mounted on a work object operable to perform a task; and at least two secondary bodies mounted on the primary body and adapted selectively to be moved by the work object in the performance of the task. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090019725 | ELECTROMAGNETIC FITNESS SHOES WITH A CONDUCTOR STRUCTURE AND INSOLES - The present invention provides electromagnetic fitness shoes with a conductor structure and an insole. The shoes include a vamp, an inner space, a heel portion and a sole. The sole includes a big sole body, a middle sole and an insole. The insole is provided with conducting members, and the conductor structure electrically connects to a conducting member. The conducting member includes a conductive terminal and electric wire. The conductive terminal fitted with an electric connecting portion. The conductive terminal is assembled into the interleaving space formed by the heel portion and arranged along the interleaving space. The electric connecting portion is exposed upwards, and the conducting member of insole is made of conductive fabrics. The robustness is improved, and the service life of the electromagnetic fitness shoes is prolonged with better comfort and applicability. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20110265344 | STIMULUS TRAINING METHOD AND APPARATUS TO EFFECTUATE THERAPEUTIC TREATMENT - The invention provides a compactly contained multiple-component sensing device for detecting toe-walking and other physical conditions and providing repetitive positive reinforcement stimuli to correct the same. A comprehensive software system enables therapeutic management of the sensing and stimulus device and easy changes in therapy, stimulus content, stimulus frequency and other factors. A variety of circuit and housing arrangements allow adaptability to manufacture, user, and treatment professional demands. | 11-03-2011 |

FOOT ELEVATORS | 2 |
| 20130192089 | NESTING MODULAR ELEVATORS FOR FOOTWEAR - The nesting modular elevators for footwear are a plurality of tapered, progressively wider units that assemble sequentially to one another and attach to the shoe of the wearer. Each unit has a generally oval planform and a hollow interior, permitting each successively smaller unit to be stored compactly within the next larger unit for storage. The base unit has a wide footprint that provides good stability for the assembly when in use. The larger or lowermost unit(s) may be omitted from the assembly when less than maximum height is required. In one embodiment, the units have mating laterally opposed channels and tracks respectively along the upper and lower edges thereof. In another embodiment, the units have mating opposed fore and aft tabs and slots respectively in the upper and lower edges thereof. These systems provide positive engagement of the units with one another, and preclude slippage between units. | 08-01-2013 |
| 20160081430 | Height Enhancing Assembly - A height enhancing assembly for increasing the apparent height of a user includes a pair of pads that may each be coupled to a shoe. The pads provide additional height for the user. A pair of adhesive layers is provided. Each of the adhesive layers is coupled to an associated one of the pads. The adhesive layers each engage the shoe. The pads are retained on the shoe. | 03-24-2016 |

SHANKS | 2 |
| 20120000096 | Shank Guard - A novel removable boot attachment for protecting workboot shanks and soles. | 01-05-2012 |
| 20140000131 | FLEXIBLE SHANK FOR AN ARTICLE OF FOOTWEAR | 01-02-2014 |

INTERFITTED SOLE AND HEEL | 2 |
| 20150013181 | Happy Heelz--An Anatomically Designed Heeled Shoe - An anatomically designed heeled shoe having an insole/midsole combination and a recessed cavity at the heel articulates the natural shape of a foot. The design of the heeled shoe manages defects in the natural shape of the foot, reducing any pain and the exacerbation of podiatric conditions and problems incurred from use of improper footwear. The insole/midsole combination broadly disperses the weight bearing across the entire base of the foot and takes pressure away across the metatarsals and toes, providing a comfort-level equivalent to a flat shoe. While disguising the insole/midsole combination and imitating the height and appearance of a higher heeled shoe, the anatomically designed heeled shoe ensures additional height, optimal comfort and health for the wearer. | 01-15-2015 |
| 20150089833 | SHOE SOLE AND INTERCHANGEABLE HEEL - A shoe sole and heel assembly includes a sole, an interchangeable heel removably connected with the sole, and at least one locking device for fixing the heel to the sole. The sole includes a wall extending from the heel area of the lower surface of the sole to define a cavity. The inner surface of the wall contains a channel. The heel includes a track extending from the side and rear portions of the heel. The heel is arranged adjacent to the sole with the heel track entering the sole channel. As the heel is displaced rearwardly, the track enters the channel of the sole and prevents vertical and lateral movement of the heel relative to the sole. A latch on the lower surface of the sole engages a notch on the upper surface of the heel to prevent longitudinal displacement of the heel. The sole and heel contain aligned threaded openings for receiving screws to secure the heel to the sole. | 04-02-2015 |

WITH HEEL PLATE | 1 |
| 20110167674 | Rearfoot Post for Orthotics - A rearfoot post comprises a stop segment and an elastic segment operatively coupled along an axis of rotation. The stop segment is fabricated from a firm or rigid material. The elastic segment compresses and expands in response to foot motion. The elastic segment can include an elastomer or a spring. In some embodiments, the stop segment and the elastic segment are operatively coupled by a hinge, and the axis of rotation coincides with the axis of the hinge. Depending on service applications, a plate can be attached to the bottom of the stop segment and to the bottom of the elastic segment. Embodiments of the rearfoot post also include a heel cup. A heel cup with a flat bottom is advantageous for controlling stability of the foot and reducing shock on the heel. | 07-14-2011 |

PREFORMED, EXTERNALLY APPLIED, WEAR-CONNECTING ATTACHMENTS | 1 |
| 20160113356 | Shoe Lasts For Use With Conformable Booties, Shoe Inserts, Footwear Assemblies and Waterproof Breathable Socks - Waterproof, breathable socks, booties, shoe inserts, and footwear assemblies containing the shoe inserts are provided. The booties and shoe inserts include a laminate of a seamless ePTFE membrane and at least one textile. The bootie is conformable over a range of sizes and shoe shapes, and may be shaped to fit numerous sizes and shapes of asymmetrical shoe lasts. The bootie may shrink to fit, or, alternatively, be stretched to fit, an asymmetrical last having a desired size to form a shoe insert. Such a conformable bootie eliminates the need to have multiple sizes of shoe inserts correlating to particular shoe sizes. In embodiments where the ePTFE is seamless and continuous, the shoe insert eliminates the need for a waterproof seam tape, which is conventionally used to make shoe inserts waterproof. Methods of forming the socks, booties, and shoe inserts are also provided. Unique lasts and sock constructions are also provided. | 04-28-2016 |

COUNTER STIFFENERS | 1 |
| 20150296922 | Article of Footwear with Dynamic Support - An article of footwear with a dynamic support system that controls arrays of tiles in the upper of the footwear to adjust the level of support provided in different regions of the upper. Sensors in the sole of the footwear, in the upper of the footwear and/or in an article worn by the wearer of the footwear measure the level of stress or other characteristics and provide input to one or more microprocessors that control motors located in the sole or in the upper of the footwear. When the motors are activated, they may compress or loosen arrays of tiles to adjust the stiffness of the upper in one or more regions of the upper. | 10-22-2015 |
