Abstract:
A shoe which facilitates ventilation between the inner area of the shoe and its surrounding environment. An air cavity allowing foot heat and moisture to escape the immediate foot area and exhaust into free open space is used. A dual-layer sole system which is integrated in a manner to form an air cavity therebetween is also utilized. A series of perforations and/or cutouts are used to facilitate foot-air and moisture flow. A plurality of ventilation ports are used to facilitate bi-directional air exchange and circulation. Two anvil-shaped supports at the ball and foot area may serve as a framework to preserve the shape of the open-air cavity.
