Description

AUSTRALIA
Patents Act 1990 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION INNOVATION PATENT INTERCHANGEABLE FOOTWEAR The following statement is a full description of this invention including the best method of performing it known to me: INTERCHANGEABLE FOOTWEAR From the first invention of footwear 3 the basic concept has remained much unchanged, excepting the variety of design. This invention breaks tradition by having interchangeable covers that simply Snap-On over the base shoe, thus giving unlimited design prospects on the same pair of base shoes.
The present invention allows the wearer to quickly and easily change the cover on his or her base shoe to meet specific needs. The present shoe allows the person the ability to own a number of covers, thereby eliminating the need to purchase multiple numbers of different design shoes.
Figure 1 shows a view of the interchangeable cover, which attaches to the base shoe figure 2, which is available in all sizes and a variety of colours and designs. The covers can be made from traditional footwear material such as canvas or leather in the form of different types of shoes.
Figure 2 shows a view of the shoe base, which is available in all sizes to accommodate the attachment of interchangeable covers figure 1. The base shoe can also be made from tradtional footwear material such as leather and canvas. The sole that is attached to the base shoe can also be made from traditional footwear material such as rubber or leather.
Figure 3 shows a cross-section of the male and female attachment mould. The male insert mould is attached to the entire surround of the cover. The female receptacle mould is attached to the entire surround of the base shoe, which snaps tightly together to secure the cover firmly onto the base. The moulded attachment also allows for waterproofing by an overlap on the male insert over the edge of the female receptacle mould. The laces being inserted through the cover and base eyelets further secure the cover.
It is also noted that the detachment of the cover is made easier by the pull-tab I11 shown in figure 1.
While the preferred method of attaching the base and cover is shown in figure 3, other types of attaching such as zippers or hook and loop fasteners could also be utilised.
The preferred embodiments of the invention described herein are exemplary and numerous modifications, dimensional variations, and rearrangements can be readily envisioned to achieve an equivalent result, all of which are intended to be embraced within the scope of the appended claims.

Claims (4)

1. The Interchangeable Footwear comprises a Base pair of shoes with interchangeable covers.
2. Covers are attached and detached to the Base shoe via a Snap-On mould attached to the seam of the Cover and around the entire base shoe.
3. The Snap-On mould is made up of one or more resilient materials on both the Cover and the Base and is a pair interacting as a Male and Female mould section designed to snap tightly together.
4. The Snap-On mould system has an overlapping section for waterproofing purposes as part of the Male mould section. Interchangeable footwear substantially as herein before described with reference to figures 1-3 of accompanying drawings. DARREN BRUCE MARX LIVINGSTONE. 9AC-20 9 MARCH 2002
