Abstract: In order to provide an athletic shoe that does not get caught even when a strong effort to hold on is made when sliding sideways, and that allows for light footwork, the present invention provides an athletic shoe that has an undersurface of a midsole 22 that is formed with a raised portion 24, along a circumferential side edge thereof affixed with an outersole 30 that forms an outsole, and an extending portion 32 that extends up to a circumferential side surface of the midsole is formed at a perimeter edge of the outersole, wherein: at a portion along a little toe of the circumferential side surface 22a of the midsole, a bulged portion 29 having a thickness equal to or more than a thickness substantially corresponding to a thickness of the raised portion 24 of the midsole in a shoe width direction is integrally formed so as to protrude outward, and the extending portion 32 is formed extending from the perimeter edge of the outersole 30 toward a protruding surface of the bulged portion 29 and the extending po

Abstract: A protector that lightens a shock when a wearer falls, and reduces an unpleasant feeling given to a wearer when worn for a long period of time. The protector is substantially circular in a plan view and is disposed at a position to cover near a femoral-neck portion from a side portion of a wearer. The protector is curved in a thickness direction so that an outer surface, comprising a single-layer structure composed of a polymer-foam body, is convex, and an inner surface is concave. An amount of displacement in the thickness direction when a load of 20 N is applied at a central portion of the outer surface when placed on a flat surface is 3 mm-20 mm.
