FIELD OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates generally to footwear. More specifically, the present invention is an odor-eliminating insole that increases comfort, eliminates odor, and reduces moisture.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThere are various types of footwear worn by individuals in present time. These types of footwear can range from sneakers to oxfords to boots. There is a common theme between those examples in where the footwear covers a large portion of the foot of the individual. There is a lack of breathability when the footwear covers a large portion of the foot of the individual. Due to the lack of breathability, issues with odor and moisture can occur and are difficult to overcome if the individual wears the footwear for long hours in a day.
It is therefore an objective of the present invention to provide an odor-eliminating insole that eliminates odor and reduces moisture. The odor-eliminating insole includes an ergonomic shoe insert that houses a quantity of odor-eliminating material and a quantity of desiccant. The quantity of odor-eliminating material is preferably charcoal that also reduces moisture. The quantity of desiccant is used to further reduce moisture within footwear. Another objective of the present invention is to increase comfort for when an individual wears the footwear for long hours in a day. This is accomplished with the ergonomic shoe insert preferably being made of a foam material. Another objective of the present invention is to provide an aesthetic aspect to the odor-eliminating insole. This is accomplished with a decorative cover that is used to enclose the ergonomic shoe insert.
All illustrations of the drawings are for the purpose of describing selected versions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
