  • Patent number: 11882898
    Abstract: A plantar shaped shoe sole constituted by layers includes a mid-sole constituted by a body and elastically compressible protrusions protruding downward from a body lower surface, each having an axial cavity and first holes. An upper surface of the body has holes associated with first holes of each protrusion. First protrusions are arranged at a central area of the heel and forefoot of the body and have a greater protruding height than second protrusions. First and second protrusions have first and second apices, respectively, forming anatomically-contoured curved surfaces, formed at protrusion free ends, opposite the body lower surface. Each axial cavity extends from the upper surface to their respective apex. There are more forefoot region first holes of first protrusions than second protrusions. The sole includes a tread and an elastic plantar supporting structure, at least one seat on the upper surface wherein the apices are positioned on the seat.

  • Patent number: 11805851
    Abstract: A mid-sole, or insole, particularly for shoes, is constituted by a body which has an upper surface which has a plantar-like perimetric shape. From the lower surface of the body a first plurality and a second plurality of elastically compressible protrusions protrude downward, each one having an axial cavity. During walking or running, the protrusions adapt rapidly to movements and to the shape.

  • Publication number: 20170000213
    Abstract: A sole, particularly for sports shoes, which includes in succession from the bottom: a tread sole, a hollow mid-sole made of elastic material with a bottom that has through openings that face opposite faces thereof, and at least one upper border, which delimits a respective opening that is directed toward the bottom and is raised from it by supporting elements at least at the heel, which define a succession of lateral passages of the mid-sole that connect its internal cavity to the outside. The sole further includes a laminar support layer for the foot, which is associated perimetrically with the upper border so as to cover the opening. he laminar support layer has extensibility characteristics and the mid-sole has flexibility characteristics such that, in combination, the system returns a thrust in response to the pressure of the foot on the laminar support layer during sports activity.
