Abstract:
The invention concerns a sports shoe in which a section (6) of the upper covering the toe region has, running across it, a recess (8) under which is a soft, flexible material (9). This prevents compression folds being formed in the section (6) of the upper covering the toe region when the shoe bends during push-off.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a sole (1) for sports shoes, in particular for indoor sports, the sole having an edge support in the form of a bead (3) of approximately circular cross-section which projects out beyond the lateral surface (4) of the main body (2) of the sole. The bead is only connected to the sole by a part of its cross-section located above the lower surface of the sole. When the shoe is subjected to lateral stresses, the bead can therefore pivot to one side, thus producing a threshold effect against lateral bending (fig. 2).
Abstract:
A sports boot, especially a basketball boot, with an at least partly (at 33) flexibly extensible supination supporting strap (3), one end of which is secured to the outside of the shoe at the edge of the sole and/or the upper near the edge in a region (I) embracing the outer ball of the foot and the little toe; said supporting strap is taken obliquely rearwards over the instep to the inner side of the shoe and then back underneath the foot to the outside of the shoe in the region of the joint (II) and from there once again upwards to the part of the upper (11) surrounding the ankle, where it may be secured.
