Abstract: Provided is a brassiere allowing for selecting a plurality of types of pads. A brassiere (1) includes a first pocket (70) that holds a pad (90 to 95) inside a cup portion (2), and further includes a second pocket (80) inside the cup portion (2). The first pocket (70) includes a first pocket opening (72) through which the pad (90 to 95) is taken in and out, and a first opening portion (73) communicating with the first pocket opening (72). The first pocket opening (72) is covered with the second pocket (80). The second pocket (80) includes a second pocket opening (82) through which the pad (90 to 95) is taken in and out, and a second opening portion (83) communicating with the first pocket opening (72).

Abstract: A sole structure for an article of footwear comprises a unitary midsole having a first portion and a second portion rearward of the first portion. A bottom surface of the unitary midsole defines a groove extending from a medial side to a lateral side of the unitary midsole, and a top surface of the unitary midsole defines a slit disposed over the groove and extending from the medial side to the lateral side. The unitary midsole forms a living hinge at the groove and the slit, with the living hinge connecting the first portion to the second portion so that the first portion and the second portion are selectively pivotable relative to one another at the living hinge between a first orientation and a second orientation. The groove is wider in the first orientation than in the second orientation, and the slit is wider in the second orientation.

Abstract: An article of footwear includes an upper extending from a first end in a forefoot region to a second end in a heel region. The article of footwear also includes a sole structure attached to the upper and including a posterior end extending beyond the second end of the upper. The sole structure includes a bladder having a portion disposed between the second end of the upper and the posterior end of the sole structure.

Abstract: Foot support systems include a fluid flow control system that facilitates movement of fluid into, out of, and/or within a sole structure and/or article of footwear, e.g., to change and/or control pressure in fluid filled bladder(s). Aspects of this technology may relate to one or more of: (a) footwear structures in which such systems are incorporated; (b) valve stem based fluid flow transfer systems; (c) solenoid based fluid flow transfer systems; (d) user input button features; (e) air filter features; (f) fluid tube to fluid distributor connection features; (g) fluid distributor to footwear connection features; (h) valve position sensor features; (i) valve transmission features; (j) pressure control algorithm features; (k) electronic communication features; (l) system sealing features; and/or (m) pressure sensor mounting features.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to shoe accoutrements and methods of making and using the same. A shoe assembly for a shoe, can include an inner layer of first material; a support layer of second material, and the support layer including a slit, and a pocket being provided between the inner layer and the support layer. The shoe assembly can further include a first attachment plate attached to the inner layer; a second attachment plate, and the second attachment plate being magnetically attracted to the first attachment plate and positioned on the first attachment plate, and the second attachment plate being slidably removable out a top of the pocket, and the slit running along a back side of the pocket; a connection assembly attached to the second attachment plate; and an accoutrement, and the accoutrement supported by the connection assembly.

Abstract: Provided is a size measurement system for measuring the size of a user's foot, said system characterized by comprising: a size measurement instrument which is formed from a stand for the user to place the foot thereon, and a plurality of markers which are positioned in the periphery of the stand; and a measurement terminal which captures an image of a state in which the user has placed the foot on the stand in the size measurement instrument such that the plurality of markers can be recognized from a plurality of directions, and which computes size data for the foot from contour information for the foot obtained through the image capture from each of the directions

Abstract: A wallet apparatus has a first side plate and a second side plate, preferably made from metal. Further, the first side plate and second side plate may both receive a printed graphic, such as a family portrait, painting, or geometric lines, through a dye-sublimation printing process, which allows the transfer of high-resolution graphics onto the wallet.
