- The present invention relates to footwear, and more particularly, to a removable cushion for shoes, for combating fatigue and enhancing comfort.
- People who work on their feet in relatively confined spaces, such as staffing cashier stations, toll booths, and the like frequently experience fatigue of the legs or feet or related ailments. This may arise from ordinary general purpose footwear not having characteristics conducive to providing for effective support and comfort for the feet. In particular, repetitive impacts may take their toll on foot comfort.
- There exists a need to improve ergonomic performance of general purpose footwear to enhance comfort for the legs and feet for those working on their feet, especially in confined spaces.
- The present invention sets forth a removable cushion for supplementing footwear of a user to mitigate discomfort over prolonged periods during which people work on their feet in confined spaces. The removable cushion may include a resilient sole, a heel pocket, a closure encircling the footwear or body of the user proximate the heel pocket to retain the removable cushion on the footwear at the heel, and a front closure encircling the front of the foot to retain the removable cushion on the front of the footwear at the front of the foot. The closures may comprise encircling straps bearing hook and loop fastener.
- The heel pocket provides support for the foot in that twisting or torsional movements of the foot will not dislodge the heel from the novel cushion. The resilient sole may have a low wall projecting upwardly at an open toe area and between the heel pocket and the front closure. These low walls may also act to prevent the footwear from sliding laterally along the novel cushion.
- The resilient sole may comprise closed cell foam and may have treads and an elevated heel.
- The present invention provides improved elements and arrangements thereof by apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable, and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes.
- These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
- Various objects, features, and attendant advantages of the present invention will become more fully appreciated as the same becomes better understood when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters designate the same or similar parts throughout the several views, and wherein:
-
