A sockliner includes: a base layer portion formed of a three-dimensional mesh structure body; and an upper layer portion formed of a sheet-like structure body that covers an upper surface of the base layer portion. The upper layer portion includes a through-hole group including a plurality of holes, and each of the holes is located inward from a peripheral edge of the upper layer portion without reaching the peripheral edge. In a case where a surrounding region is defined as a region between the peripheral edge and a position offset by 4.0 mm inward from the peripheral edge, the through-hole group includes an outermost hole group including a plurality of holes located closest to the peripheral edge so as to overlap with the surrounding region and to align along the peripheral edge.

An article of footwear includes an upper member and a sole structure, with a sensor system connected to the sole structure. The sensor system includes a plurality of sensors that are configured for detecting forces exerted by a user's foot on the sensor. The sensor system also includes a port that is configured to receive a module to place the module in communication with the sensors. The port includes a housing with a chamber configured to receive the module and an interface engaged with the housing and having at least one electrical contact exposed to the chamber. Additional retaining structure and interface structure may be included.

The invention relates to a massage insole driven by intelligent sensing motor which includes a structurally symmetrical left insole and right insole. The left insole and the right insole each includes a massaging mechanism for massaging the sole of the foot, and a receiving pad body for receiving the massaging mechanism and a control mechanism. The control mechanism is arranged in the receiving pad body. The massaging mechanism includes a massage bead chain, a driving component for driving the massage bead chain to rotate, a reset component for driving the massage bead chain to be reset. Two ends of massage bead chain are respectively sleeved on the driving component and the reset component. The control mechanism includes a control chip, a timing component and a thermostatic component. The driving component, the timing component and the thermostat component are electrically connected to the control chip. For the massage insole driven by intelligent sensing motor, the massage beads can move, and avoids the soreness that exceeds the tolerance to emerge due to the foot stepping on the massage for a long time Feet can relax without taking off the shoes. It improves the use of massage insoles.

Provided are footbeds having multiple points of contact and varying compression rates for use in articles of footwear. In one embodiment, a footbed may include apertures (for example, ovals) arranged in a varying grid density. In another embodiment, a footbed may include a lattice having edges that define polygons arranged in a constant grid density. In another embodiment, a footbed may include a lattice having edges that define polygons arranged in a constant grid density and having protruding structures within each polygon.

A foot alignment adjuster for placement in a pointe shoe includes an adjustment pad having a top surface and a bottom surface and configured to fit in a dance shoe under a dancer's forefoot. The adjustment pad has a front edge shaped to be placed at a front of the dance shoe, a back edge, a first side, and a second side. The front edge defines a first front corner with the first side and a second front corner with the second side and the back edge defines a first back corner with the first side and a second back corner with the second side. A thickness of the adjustment pad may increase from the first side to the second side; and a thickness of the adjustment pad may change from the back edge to the front edge.

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.

An insole having a top sheet, a base layer, a forefoot pad, a heel cushion, and stability cradle. The forefoot pad can be made a blown EVA or other material, and the heel cushion can be made of a clear TPR, soft polyurethane or blown EVA. A heel cup surrounds the exterior back by a heel cup, and a heel pod opening and midfoot pod opening is located in the stability cradle for allowing placement of heel pads and midfoot pads in a replacement manner. There is also a soft metatarsal raised dome on the top (foot contact) surface of the insole which would be directly above the metatarsal midfoot area.

An insole is provided. This insole features a front end, a thickness, a top surface, a bottom surface, a heel receiving portion having a first end and a second end, a lateral longitudinal arch support section which has a width, and a medial longitudinal arch support section. Preferably, the medial longitudinal arch support section is made up of a partial spherical cap which has a radius and a height, and the medial longitudinal arch support section runs from the first end of said heel receiving portion to the lateral longitudinal arch support section.

An arch support may include a base plate having a base plate top surface. The arch support may further include a contoured arch plate attached to the base plate at a joint. The arch plate may include an arch plate bottom surface. The arch plate bottom surface may face and be separated from the base plate top surface, with an extent of the separation increasing toward a medial side of the arch support.

Device suitable for being integrated in footwears soles, acting as cushioning, energy dissipation and stabilization means, including: a cushioning element made of a first material having a viscoelastic behavior; a conditioning element positioned under the cushioning element and made of a second material having a viscoelastic behavior; and a containing element positioned above the cushioning element and covering also the conditioning element. The cushioning element having first empty regions that are first through holes and second through holes and channels to pushing out the air when the device is subjected to a compression load.
