"Sports shoe, especially soccer shoe"

In the case of the known sports shoes with an incorporated heel cap, a pocket is provided to accommodate them., which is bounded on the outside by the upper leather and on the inside by the lining leather »Before pinching of the upper, the back cap is inserted into the pocket from the lower edge of the upper. Then the upper leather is inserted and pinched the lining together with the cap onto the insole

In recent times it has been shown to be necessary in soccer shoes to incorporate padding in the rear part of the shaft, which laterally encloses the heel. This is to take into account the hazard and damage that often arise in the Achilles tendon. This is particularly sensitive in the area of the attachment point on the heel bone, as this is where the easily irritable and therefore easily inflammatory Achilles tendon _{bruises are o} Diseases of the Achilles tendon occur in football players today.

emerged to a greater extent because the training conditions are becoming increasingly severe »Bas daily, hard training entails, that the foot is proportionate reacts quickly to external influences (irritation) with inflammation »It is therefore important to be aware of the design of the sports footwear to do everything possible to exclude such adverse effects on the foot. It must be taken into account here that the failure of a football player, which is often caused by a foot injury for the club, but also for the player himself, for whom the sporting activity is often the livelihood forms, can have serious consequences.

With the aforementioned cushioning of the heel part of a soccer shoe, the development of foot damage is to be counteracted. The padding, like the heel cap, is incorporated between the upper and lining leather »This not only entails a relatively high manufacturing cost, but also has the disadvantage that, due to the interposition of the lining, the padding does not come into contact directly with the foot and thus the can its intended effect is not so completely unfold, as is desirable in and of itself ₀ among them is that the frequently occurring at football players deformations on the heel (hock, swelling of the Achilles tendon bursa) are well embedded in the cushion ,,

The subsequent gluing of a pad to the foot of the lining would lead to inconveniences = once would as a result, the shoe size, which is determined by the space available to the foot within the shaft, changes, On the other hand, the connection of a subsequently glued-in pad to the shaft would not be so tight that it would withstand extreme stresses on a soccer shoe would. A f abrikmäßiges., Subsequent gluing in of one Padding on the lining would make production more expensive »

The innovation is thereafter based on the _object's a sports shoe, in particular football boot miteingearbeiteter heel _cap} to create, in which the incorporation of the heel side enclosing padding is designed more appropriate both in manufacturing standpoint and in terms of the intended with the cushioning effect than in the known sports shoes ,. This object is achieved according to the invention in that the heel pad is made part of the upper itself by taking on the role of the usual lining, that is to say replacing it. In the case of the soccer shoe according to the innovation, the pocket for the possibly provided heel cap is inwardly connected to the upper material along the upper edge of the shaft, preferably sewn and, like the upper material, pinched onto the insole

Äbpolsterling limited =, that else besides the padding required food is saved. Another particular advantage is that the padding, which is preferably consists of a slightly compressible foam, directly comes to rest against the foot and can therefore develop a certain suction effect even when pressed together., which a good embedding of all possible deformations promoted at the heel in the cushioning material

In order to ensure good adhesion between the padding and the foot even if the padding material is with If moisture (foot sweat) comes into contact, the padding on the foot side is thin and proportionate wide-meshed fabric "

The innovation is preferably used in a sports shoe, especially soccer shoe, with one the sides of the shaft quarter clearly superior padding in the area of the Achilles tendon, whereby in the refinement of the The innovation is that the Achilles tendon is in the heel area on the upper material and the padding that serves as a lining until a tongue that surrounds it is formed well above its attachment to the heel bone5 this tongue is formed thus a component of the shaft and is not-as separate part carried out, as was the case with well-known low-cut sports shoes Padding extends to the insole is

the tongue is especially form-retaining, so that it does not move

by flipping the outside and thus a wirkeamen protection for the Achilles tendon or = the Achilles tendon bursa forms ο In this preferred embodiment of the innovation is the upper shaft closure in Fersenba rich so far upwards and thus the Achilles tendon of the heel bone site away from the approach displaced that the upper The edge of the shaft the Achilles tendon can no longer pinch between itself and the heel hump, to which the Achilles tendon is attached »Because the upper edge of the shaft in the heel area is relatively far up _? the edge of the shaft can also no longer cause irritation of the Achilles tendon bruises, as is often the case with the well-known low-cut sports shoes due to the tight lacing of the shaft at the foot »

The drawing shows an exemplary embodiment of an innovation according to the invention Show it?

1 shows the soccer shoe in a perspective view Fig. 2 shows a section along the line H-II of Fig.l and 3 shows a partial section along the line III in FIG.

The shaft of the soccer shoe according to the innovation is in of the heel part formed by the upper leather 1 and the padding »These include a pocket in which the Heel counter 3 is incorporated »Parts 1, 2, 3 are in

the usual "way to pinch the insole 4" along the upper edge of the upper leather 1 and the padding 2 are sewn to one another (seam 5) s with an edging strip 6 that surrounds the upper edge on both sides and encircles the slip-in opening "

As can be seen in particular from FIG. 3, the upper leather 1 and the padding 2 form a tongue 7 _S which clearly protrudes over the sides of the upper quarter and which surrounds the Achilles tendon both along its apex line and laterally outwardly increased even further »

With 8 is the outsole and with 9 they are on it fastened studs of the soccer shoe marked "

The innovation is not limited to the following claims. It includes all features from the above description and the drawing, which are evidently inventive due to the prior art, _etc.
