THREE LAYER SHOE CONSTRUCTION WITH IMPROVED CUSHIONING, FLEXIBILITY, AND SHOCK ABSORPTION
A three-layered shoe construction having a mating relationship between an outsole, an midsole, and an insole. The outsole having a shoulder portion and a plurality of non-linear grooves, the grooves creating flow channels to guide liquid off the outer surface of the outsole and providing additional flexibility; the dual density midsole having an angled portion and a first density in the forefoot area and a second density in the hind foot area, the second density being greater than the first density, the angled portion of the midsole mating with the shoulder portion of the outsole; and the insole having a plurality of curved grooves that cover the top face. The specific construction associated with the outsole, midsole and insole enhance traction, flexibility, cushioning, comfort, breathability and water displacement.
THREE LAYER SHOE CONSTRUCTION WITH IMPROVED CUSHIONING, FLEXIBILITY AND TRACTION
A shoe construction having an outsole wherein the exterior face includes a forefoot section, a midfoot section, and a heel foot section, the forefoot and midfoot sections including a stair step pattern, the heel foot section including a plurality of projections, the interior face of the outsole including a forefoot cavity having a plurality of wavy rib members and a hind foot cavity having a plurality of straight rib members, a dual density midsole having a first density in the forefoot area and a second density in the hind foot area, and an insole receivable within the midsole and having a top face which includes a scored geometric pattern forming a plurality of non-linear grooves and projections some of which spiral outwardly from around the arch area and some of which extend into the forefoot and hind foot areas, and a pair of cushioning members receivable respectively within the forefoot and hind foot cavities of the outsole.

Half shoe accessory for a foot brace boot
The half shoe accessory for a foot brace boot is configured for use with a controlled motion boot. The controlled motion boot is further defined with an upper, a sole, a vamp a quarter, and a toe guard. The toe guard is a perimeter structure that: 1) protects the interior of the vamp section of the half shoe accessory for a foot brace boot from impact injuries; and, 2) follows the perimeter of the sole. The half shoe accessory for a foot brace boot comprises a sleeve, an impact cushion, and a plurality of hook and loop fasteners. The sleeve is a covering placed over the toe guard. The impact cushion is a pad that attaches to the superior side of the sleeve. The plurality of hook and loop fasteners: 1) attach the sleeve to the toe guard; and, 2) attach the impact cushion to the sleeve.
Unitless activity assessment and associated methods
A system assesses activity and displays a unitless activity value. A detector senses activity of a user. A processor reads sensed activity data from the detector. A display displays the unitless activity value. An enclosure houses the detector and the processor. The processor periodically reads the sensed activity data from the detector and processes the data to generate an activity number, the number being used to generate the unitless activity value based upon a maximum number and a display range.
