Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cross-linked foam, and more specifically a three-dimensional cross-linked foam for uppers of shoes that has a shape corresponding to a last and has at least one inner cavity structure therein.
  • the shoes that we usually wear for protecting the feet from the external circumstance mainly comprise soles and uppers.
  • the uppers of the shoes directly contact the feet and thus increases a feeling of unity.
  • the uppers play a primary role in protecting the feet from an external impact applied to the feet.
  • the uppers are usually formed using a last 10 that has a three-dimensional shape corresponding to completed uppers as shown in FIGS. 13 to 14 . Because the last 10 has a three-dimensional shape and the raw material for the uppers are planar, a measurement of each portion of the last 10 must be taken and then converted to a measurement that can be applied to the planar raw material for the uppers such as cloth, leather and various resins, etc. That is, the last 10 has a three-dimensional measurement as shown in the figures in alphabet “a”,“b”, “c”, “d” and “e” and these measurement must be converted to a planar measurement that can be applied to the raw material for the uppers.
  • the raw material is cut according to the converted measurement and then sewed or attached together. The sewed or attached material is put into close contact with the outer surface of the last 10 and then undergoes a heating and an ageing processes to obtain a completed uppers.
  • the completed uppers acquired by the above-mentioned method have following disadvantages.
  • many components of the completed uppers basically has a thin planar shape and is formed of soft material, a stability of a shape and a dimension is low compared with the soles of the shoes that is formed by a molding die.
  • planar raw materials once transformed into a three-dimensional shape, it is difficult to keep the completed uppers in a three-dimensional shape.
  • the uppers must primarily protect the feet from the external impact, it should have a supporting property and a good fitting.
  • the uppers of the related art has been usually made of the thin, planar and soft materials.
  • various shock-absorbing material or protector may be put into the uppers or attached to the uppers during a sewing process.
  • an applicable range of this method is very narrow considering that the upper is formed of thin planar material and has a smaller thickness than the soles of the shoe.
  • shock-absorbing materials having a relatively big volume are inserted or attached to a certain portion of the uppers, the fitting feeling between the uppers and the feet becomes bad and a naturally curved appearance of the shoes also becomes bad even though a shock-absorbing property of the certain portion of the uppers is improved.
  • the film or the sheet having the function of air ventilation and waterproof is attached to a surface of the uppers or additional built-in uppers formed of the film or the sheet having the function of air ventilation and waterproof are formed in a shape of the sewed uppers and then put into the sewed uppers.
