Abstract: An article of footwear may include a sole assembly and an upper, positioned above the sole assembly, formed from a stretchable material such as a stretchable canvas. The upper may include stitching, with a stretchability of the stretchable canvas being maintained in an area of the upper where the stitching extends. The stitching may include, for example, double needle cover stitching.

Abstract: A moisture-permeable waterproof shoe includes an upper unit, an inner sleeve unit, and an outsole unit. The upper unit defines an inner space having a top open end and a bottom closed end. The inner sleeve unit is fixedly disposed in the inner space, and includes a moisture-permeable waterproof shoe-like inner sleeve and a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) sheet. The moisture-permeable waterproof shoe-like inner sleeve has an inner sleeve bottom surface and defines a wearing space having a top open end and a bottom closed end. The TPU sheet has a top surface fixedly connected to the inner sleeve bottom surface by a high-frequency welding method. The outsole unit is fixedly connected to an underside of the upper unit.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a protective device (100) for protecting a head from impact, the device 100 comprising a shell (110) substantially formed in a dome-shape and having a first outer edge (1101); an inner layer (120) substantially formed in the dome-shape disposed within the shell (110), having an second outer edge (1201) and arranged at a gap distance in a direction of in the surface normal of the shell (110), at least one connecting member (130) interconnecting the shell (110) and inner layer (120) by interconnecting the first outer edge (1101) and the second outer edge (1201), an intermediary structure (140) comprising a plurality of deformable elements (1401) arranged in a single layer, wherein each of the deformable elements (1401), in an undeformed state, is arranged in simultaneous contact with the shell (110), the inner layer (120) and at least one other deformable element of the deformable elements (1401).

Abstract: A sole structure for a shoe that can secure cushioning properties and obtain a ground surface information is disclosed. The sole structure includes a first midsole having a plurality of first protrusions on a foot-sole-contact side, an outsole having a plurality of second protrusions on a ground surface side, and a second midsole disposed at a part of a region between the first midsole and the outsole and having a lower compressive rigidity than the first midsole. At least a part of the plurality of first protrusions of the first midsole is located at a position corresponding vertically to at least a part of the plurality of second protrusions of the outsole.

Abstract: An inflatable garment accessory including a body assembly and a sleeve assembly is disclosed. The body assembly includes an inflatable member that is made of a cloth material and has an interior space therein. The inflatable member may be rectangular in shape and further includes a font end. A user may then place indicia and/or designs to be accentuated on the front end of the inflatable member. The sleeve assembly includes two sleeve members made of cloth material that are mounted to opposite perimeter sides of the inflatable member. The two sleeve members form a tunnel which receive air therein. The air then inflates the inflatable member which in turn accentuates the indicia and/or design located at the front end.
