Dynamic pressure controlling footwear

A dynamic pressure controlling footwear is disclosed and includes a main body, a control box and plural dynamic pressure controlling components. The main body includes a vamp disposed on an airbag. The control box includes a microprocessor and is disposed on a top surface region of the vamp. Each dynamic pressure controlling component is positioned on the airbag and includes an actuating pump and a pressure sensor packaged on a substrate by a semiconductor process. The substrate is positioned on the airbag and electrically connected to the microprocessor of the control box through a conductor. The actuating pump is in fluid communication with the airbag for inflating the airbag. The pressure sensor detects an inner pressure of the airbag to generate a pressure information. The microprocessor enables or disables the actuating pump according to the pressure information, so that the inner pressure of the airbag is adjusted.
