Abstract

See full text

A form fitting closure structure and method for an internal tightening of shoe facilitated the closure system to ensure the retention of the position of the shoe wearer's foot. The system comprises (1) an outer sole which is open to allow insertion of a foot and capable of being closed over the foot by a closure system, (2) an internal sock-like tightening structure that encases the instep of the foot and is affixed to the shoe's closure system. A method of providing a better fit of the shoe around the shoe wearer's foot by ensuring the retention of the position of the foot within the shoe is also disclosed.
