Abstract: A sole structure is configured such that in a state where a ground surface of an outsole is in contact with the ground surface, when a planta support surface of a deformable part receives a load of a human body, the deformable part is flexurally deformed downward while being supported on a fixed end functioning as a supporting point, thereby allowing the planta support surface to be inclined downward such that a free end of the deformable part moves downward.

Abstract: A running form diagnosis system capable of automatically scoring a running form of a runner is provided. The running form diagnosis system obtains body motion information as to a test subject running on a treadmill, and calculate a running form score of the test subject by applying obtained characteristics to a given operation expression. The operation expression is generated based on correlation between characteristics of a plurality of test runners and comprehensive evaluation given by an expert with respect to the plurality of test runners.

Abstract: A ball catching tool for baseball or softball includes a thumb-stall receiving the thumb, an index-finger-stall receiving the index finger, a middle-finger-stall receiving the middle finger, a ring-finger-stall receiving the ring finger and a little-finger-stall receiving the little finger; wherein a ball catching assisting portion of at least 6.15 mm and at most 26.6 mm in height is provided on a ball catching side surface of the thumb-stall or its root portion.

Abstract: A glove of the present invention includes a stretchable member and protective members arranged on a side corresponding to a back of a hand, and when the glove is placed in a stationary state and viewed from the back side, the stretchable member forms two or more separate curve surfaces, and upper end portions thereof are located somewhere in lower half parts of finger covering parts, each of the curve surfaces formed with the stretchable member extends toward a wrist part, crossing a center line of at least one finger covering part selected from a second finger (forefinger) covering part, a third finger (middle finger) covering part, a fourth finger (ring finger) covering part, and a fifth finger (little finger) covering part, at least twice in a region from the upper end portions to a normal to the center line of the third finger (middle finger) covering part that passes an interdigit part between the first finger (thumb) covering part and the second finger (forefinger) covering part, and in regions between

Abstract: In a glove having finger covering parts, a finger covering part corresponding to at least one finger selected from the third finger (middle finger), the fourth finger (ring finger), and the fifth finger (little finger) is configured by arranging protective members (2a to 2e) on anterior and posterior sides of the same, and arranging stretchable members (4a to 6a) on both lateral sides of the same. An inner perimeter of each finger covering part is substantially equal to an outer perimeter of the finger corresponding thereto. The stretchable members on the lateral sides of each finger have stretching forces such that a stretching force of the stretchable member on the lateral side on the first finger (thumb) side is higher than a stretching force of the stretchable member on the other lateral side on the fifth finger (little finger) side. When the glove is bent from an opened state to a gripping state, the finger covering part is bent with a twist at a gripping angle toward the first finger (thumb) side.

Abstract: A glove comprises an outer leather member including an outer leather pocket portion and an outer leather back face portion, an inner leather member, inserted in the outer leather member, having a palm member provided along the outer leather pocket portion and a back member provided along the outer leather back face portion, finger portions formed between the palm member and the back member for receiving the fingers of a wearer of the catching tool and a reinforcing portion selectively provided on a specific position of the palm member.
