Disclosed is a non-slip shoe wear having a non-slip part on each of an inner surface and an outer surface, particularly, a non-slip shoe wear that can prevent an injury to a skin while maintaining a non-slip function by alternately arranging a non-slip part of an inner surface and a non-slip part of an outer surface.

Disclosed herein are apparatuses and articles including an adhering portion comprising a textile having an integral surface adhering substrate, said adhering portion configured to releasably adhere to the surface using the integral surface adhering substrate. In one aspect, the adhering portion is configured to releasably adhere to a wearer's body surface and a garment body surface with friction, wherein the friction is sufficient to hold the apparatus and article in a fixed position without the need for adhesives or mechanical fasteners. Also disclosed herein method of using said textile having an integral skin adhering substrate and methods for making the disclosed apparatuses and articles.

A shoe liner shielding device for reducing soiling of an inner surface of a heel cap includes a first panel, which is flexible and shaped substantially complementarily to a heel cap of a respective shoe. A set of couplers that is coupled to a first face of the first panel is configured to selectively couple to a liner of the respective shoe so that the first panel substantially covers an inner surface of the heel cap. The first panel is configured to reduce soiling of the inner surface of the heel cap due to contact with a sock on a foot of a user that is positioned in the respective shoe.

One example embodiment in this disclosure provides an apparatus including a retainer, anchored at a heel position within a shoe. The apparatus also includes a heel strap having a first and second end and a mid-section, wherein the first and second end of the heel strap is anchored on a sole of a shoe, and wherein the mid-section of the heel strap is attached to the retainer. The apparatus also includes an adjuster associated with the heel strap configured to adjust length of the heel strap.

Stitching is applied to a shoe or shoe component and then printed. The stitching may be formed from a continuous thread. After printing, a portion of the continuous thread may have a different color or appearance from other portion(s) of the continuous thread.

The implementation improves in the best possible way the integration between the insole and a modified sock, different than those currently known. The present implementation describes an insole-sock type insert for shoes, which presents a novel configuration that consists of an insole, which has a short, medium, or modified sock attached to it, totally or partially, within the extension of the insole; a short, medium, or modified sock, partially attached to the insole, remaining loose or free in the front part where the toes go and/or part of the instep as well as the front part of the foot, and; an attachment mechanism between the insole and the short, medium, or modified sock, which allows for their attachment, where such mechanism is a seam, Velcro, adhesive, or any other type of method that has the same function.

An improved baby sock that will reduce the instance of the sock coming off the foot while in use and related applications to children's, women's, and men's socks. Application of the invention to improved in-place retention for hats, mittens, foot-less onesies, shoes, and bedding are presented.

A shoe includes an upper part, an outer sole, an inner sole configured between the upper part and the outer sole and abutting the outer sole, and a pad having a tear drop shape. The pad is configured between the outer sole and the inner sole to prevent the foot from forwardly slipping. The pad includes a first longitudinal end part having a first width and a first height, and a second longitudinal end part having a second width and a second height. The second longitudinal end part is configured opposite to the first longitudinal end part. The first longitudinal end part is closer to the medial side than the second longitudinal end part. The pad includes a middle part connecting the first and second longitudinal end parts. The first width is larger than the second width, and the first height is larger than the second height.
