Perfect for these industries. The disclosed insert shell has a contoured front wall curving rearwardly into an upper wall and curving on opposite sides into opposed side walls. The insert does not extend rearward beyond the toe box.

Thus, although the construction of the insert can help prevent wrinkling of the toe cap region of the shoe, it does not prevent wrinkling or creasing in any other region of the footwear. The Spar et al. It is not designed to conform itself to the interior of any shoe nor is it designed to maintain the shape and patency of the whole shoe.

There has been a long felt need for such a insert not only for aesthetic reasons, but also for medical applications and, recently, shoe customization. The present invention not only provides a solution to this long felt need but it is functionally designed to be wearable, thus offering the capability of maintaining shoe patency, even when worn.

The purposes and advantages of the present invention will be set forth in, and apparent from, the description that follows, as well as will be learned. The invention consists of an insert that is placed in the shoe just like a shoe tree and allows a user to wear the sneakers or shoes with the insert in the shoe. These inserts will allow the user to keep the original shape of the footwear while being worn or not. It also gives the user the benefit of wearing the shoes or sneakers while the inserts are still inside the shoe thus giving an extra level of protection against the wear-and-tear that would normally occur.

Other advantages derive from the ability of the wearable shoe tree to maintain the patency of footwear. For patients with diabetic neuropathy, the invention can protect the toes from collapse or deformation of the toe box. Also, since portions of the plastic shoe tree can be manually cut out from the tree, the invention can be worn by individuals with corns, bunions and other anomalous growths on feet and toes.

In another example, the wearable shoe tree can be used as an aid to athletic shoe customization and beautification. Since the legs of the flexible plastic shoe tree shell lock it into the walls of the shoe and create a crease-free exterior surface, the shoe can be painted, shined or similarly modified in a distortion-free manner.

In one embodiment, the wearable shoe tree is made of plastic with a closed shape at the top box or cap region and two legs that extend down the sides of the footwear. The ends of the legs are flexible, but firm enough, so that the legs can be bent together slightly thereby creating tension.

The shoe tree can then be inserted into the footwear. The plastic material can be cut or shaped to allow greater comfort for the user. In another embodiment, the legs of the shoe tree extend all the way back along the sidewalls of the shoe to, and around, the heel.

This configuration would allow maintenance of the patency of the complete shoe upper including toe region, sidewalls and heel. In still another embodiment, the shoe tree insert is fenestrated, thereby decreasing the weight of the insert and allowing aeration within the shoe. In still another embodiment, the shoe tree is made of a material that would allow it to be permanently tailored or manufactured into the shoe. Alternatively, the exterior surface of the plastic shoe tree can be glued, or modified, to allow it to be permanently affixed to the shoe.

In still another embodiment, padding or other material can be affixed to the inside surface of the shoe tree. This could increase the comfort of the shoe or allow an appropriate filler for certain medical or health conditions. In still another embodiment, the insert is made from a non-plastic material such as wood, rubber, metal or ceramic.

The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the invention and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and together with the description serve to explain the principles of the invention:.

Detailed reference will now be made to the most preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Referring to FIGS. Furthermore, the shape and size of the insert allows it to be comfortably worn by the user, thereby preventing creasing or other damage to the shoe that normally occurs with use. The insert does not otherwise interfere with the wearing of the shoe. The insert snugly molds, via pressure tension of the legs of the insert, to the inner surface of the uppers.

The construction of the insert protects against deformations e. In another embodiment the insert shell extends all the way around the shoe thereby also protecting against deformations in the heel upper. The toe box region 20 of the insert provides a convex ceiling 70 that snugly fits to the inner surface of the shoe upper and follows the contours from the shoe upper down to the floor of the shoe where the upper meets the sole.

The two legs 30 of the insert extend from the toe box region to snugly via pressure tension snap into the inner surface of the shoe sidewalls In some embodiments of the invention, the thin volume of the insert can be fenestrated to decrease the insert weight and increase aeration. The front FIG. It basically points out that the curvature follows the natural curvature of a shoe's upper at the toe box and around the side walls.
