CA 2575245

An insole (40) includes a heel collar (50) formed by a relatively hard bottom member (51) and a softer top member (52), the heel collar underlying the heel and arch region and having a channel (53) in its upper surface. A forefoot pad (60) has a forward portion that underlies the forefoot (62) and a rear portion (63) that fits in the channel of the heel collar and is adhered therein. Relatively softer foam pads (66) are disposed within recesses in the lower surface of the forefoot pad in the forefoot and heel strike areas. A footwear system can include the insole in combination with a knit sock (30) having thick padded ball (33) and heel(34 )portions and a thinner arch portion (35), and the insole has an upper surface contoured to abuttingly mate with the sock. The footwear system can also include a shoe (80) in combination with the insole, where the shoe functions to enhance the benefits of the insole.

Une première comporte un haut de tige à fond relativement dur et dessous mou pourvu d'un canal, la première prenant sous le talon et la voûte plantaire. Un coussin d'avant pied comporte une partie antérieure qui prend sous l'avant pied et une partie postérieure qui s'adapte dans le canal du haut de tige auquel il est collé. Des coussins relativement plus mous sont disposés à l'intérieur d'évidements dans la face inférieure du coussin d'avant pied, dans les zones de fatigue de l'avant pied et du talon. Un tel ensemble chaussant peut comporter cette première associée à une chaussette tricotée à épaisseur renforcée aux orteils et au talon et allégée sous la voûte plantaire, la première présentant une face supérieure dont le contour est prévu pour épouser exactement les formes de la chaussette. Cet ensemble chaussant peut également comporter une chaussure associée à la première, auquel cas la chaussure a pour fonction d'augmenter les bienfaits de la première.
