NO TIES SHOE INSOLE SYSTEMS

Abstract

The no ties shoe insole system provides a removable shoe insole having a storage compartment and method for retaining shoelaces therein. The no ties shoe insole may comprise a top portion, bottom portion, lace holes, and a plurality of hook and loop type fasteners strategically placed nearest the lace holes and inside the main shoelace storage compartment. The no ties shoe insole may be opened from the top, thereby revealing a convenient compartment for storing the original shoelaces inside the heel portion of the insole. This allows an efficient way for allowing shoes to have the ability to slide on and off without the need for tying the shoelaces.

Claims

1) A no ties shoe insole system to provide a shoe insole designed to hide the shoelaces in the heel portion of the insole essentially as described herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The present invention is directed to a no ties shoe insole system. In one embodiment of the present invention, no ties shoe insole systems may comprise a top, bottom, and plurality of hook and loop fasteners configured to create a storage compartment for the secure organization and retention of shoe laces.

[0017] Referring now to the drawings, there is shown in FIG. 1 a no ties shoe insole system including a top portion, bottom portion, lace holes, and lace holes fasteners. The featured lace holes may be small cutouts near the mid portion of the insole in between the top and bottom portions configured to allow an entry point for shoelaces to be threaded into the enclosed storage compartment. Nearest the entry to the lace holes there may be at least one lace hole fastener for securing the shoelaces through the lace holes. The lace holes fastener may be constructed from hook and loop fastener or another similar material fastener.

[0018] Referring now to FIG. 2 showing a back perspective view of a no ties shoe insole system including a top portion, bottom portion, lace holes, and lace hole fasteners. The lace hole fasteners may be small hook and loop tabs that hold the shoelaces in place after the shoelaces have been placed between the top and bottom portions through the included lace holes. Once the shoelaces have been placed through the lace holes with the top and bottom portions rejoined, this allows an efficient way for allowing shoes to have the ability to slide on and off without the need for tying the shoelaces.

[0019] Referring now to FIG. 3 is an opened rear perspective view illustrating the no ties shoe insole system according to an embodiment of the present invention showing the top and bottom separated for use along with the fastener assemblies included therein. The top portion is the area of the insole where the heal of the foot would rest. Upon lifting away the top portion, the storage compartment is revealed showing the lace holes fastener, hook and loop slab, U-shaped hook and loop male side, and U-shaped hook and loop female side. The hook and loop slab is a large portion of hook and loop type material that rests inside the insole compartment on the bottom portion for holding the laces in place. The top and bottom portions again feature U-shaped hook and loop strips that may be placed around the respective portions to help secure the top and bottom portions together once the shoe laces have been conveniently placed therein.

[0020] The exact specifications, materials used, and method of use of the no ties shoe insole system may vary upon manufacturing.

[0021] The foregoing descriptions of specific embodiments of the present invention have been presented for purposes of illustration and description. They are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the precise forms disclosed, and obviously many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching. The exemplary embodiment(s) were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the present invention and its practical application, to thereby enable others skilled in the art to best utilize the present invention and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.
