Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0359081A2] In sports shoes, in particular football boots, the problem exists for players of striking the ball in such a manner that the impulse exerted on it is in the direction of the centre of gravity. In football boots which follow the anatomy of the human foot, there is only contact in the form of a point or of a line or guidance in the form of a small area, so that even slight deviations in the point of striking the ball impair the precision. According to the invention, a sports shoe is designed in such a manner that the enveloping surface of the upper material is formed in a plane manner or curved in a concave manner in the region of the instep. By means of the concave design, there are two lines of contact upon shooting, as a result of which the ball is guided by the foot for a decisively short time and the precision is thus increased. <IMAGE>
