Abstract: In an anti-slipping device for a shoe sole having an anti-slipping or anti-sliding component such as nails or spikes which are not secured to the sole but are secured on support elements which can be overturned to be hidden in slots made on the sole itself, each overturning support element is hinged at its ends on cubic blocks which are anchored to the sole due to a mushroom-shaped coupling element which is molded in once piece to the cubic block itself, made of the same thermo-polyurethane material as the support elements and which is snap-fitted in its seat arranged in the sole next to the slot where the overturning support element is accommodated after the overturning, without interfering with the integrity of the sole itself and thus allowing the replacement thereof without difficulty. Also included is a mechanism for avoiding the accidental loss of the support element when walking.

Abstract: A non-slip tread, applicable to the footwear sector, having in correspondence of the heel and the front half-sole, two areas with alveolar structure whose cells consist of walls converging on a hole to form a funnel-shaped surface. Each hole is a through hole, that is, it passes right through the thickness of the tread and communicates with a transverse channel for lateral outflow made inside the tread.

Abstract: A sole is provided in a single-moulding made of non-rigid but elastic material having one or more vertical elements folded over each other in such a manner that the horizontal extension thereof mechanically adapts the width of the sole to the different width of the assembly lasts of the upper of a shoe. This also allows adapting the width of the sole to the variation of the conformation of the feet generated by the daily swellings thereof leaving the normal flexibility and comfort of the shoe unaltered. The user may stabilize the width of the sole to the possible deformation of the foot by injecting, from outside into the widened internal cavity, a foamed two-component fluid material which, upon solidification within a few minutes, blocks any widened part of the sole to the conformation or to the deformation of the feet of the user.

Abstract: A method for naturally adapting the outline of a footwear sole made of a deformable material is described. A sole with modified profile obtained according to the method and a basic kit for partially carrying out said method are also described.

Abstract: The present invention concerns the footwear industry and more specifically it concerns a semi-finished monoblock for cold weather footwear. The monoblock is made with two or more materials and directly moulded to an internal insulating insole and subsequently glued or moulded to an external sole. The external sole is chosen according to the aesthetic and functional requirements of the user. The present invention produces a cold weather shoe with functional and aesthetic characteristics that are better than those currently available on the market and with the possibility for them to be moulded also with the accessories required by the relevant legislation covering the specific use designated for the particular cold weather shoe.

Abstract: A sole (6) for anti-slipping shoes of the type including foldaway anti-slipping elements (12) arranged in the face of the sole that will come in touch with the ground, characterized in that the anti-slipping elements to increase the adherence to the ground are secured to rigid or semirigid supporting members (10) that are hinged to the sole so as to be lifted from the same by rotation like a flag by at least 180° with respect to a symmetry axis other than the axis of hinge/lifting from the shoe sole and not parallel thereto. Each the supporting member being housed during the use of the sole in its own single recess or groove (8) arranged in the sole portions.

Abstract: A shoe has a flap (7) articulated to the uppe, which flap may take a non-operation condition (I), in which the outer surface of the flap (7) is adjacent to the shoe upper (T). A protection element (9) has a strip (90) forming at least a first wing (90a) and a second wing (90b) and taking an unfolded configuration (D), as a consequence of the definition of the non-o eration condition (I) of the flap (7), in which the strip (90) encloses the rear upper portion of the shoe (1), rising above the flap (7), and the first and secon wings (90a, 90b) enclose the shoe sides, to be overlapped above the opposite edges (K) of the fore central part of the upper (T), to protect this part from possible water penetration.

Abstract: A shoe sole (6) provided with a number of rigid spikes or nails (12) on its face in contact with the ground, said spikes or nails being not fixedly secured to the sole but being able to pass from a first extracted position in contact with the ground to a second retracted position not interfering with the trampling surface because of the combination of folding spike support means which can be overturned with first and second grooves or recesses (20) formed in the sole within which such spike support means can be accommodated in the extracted and the rest positions.
