Abstract

In described embodiments, the invention provides a foot pad having a generally planar substrate having a medial side and a lateral side and an upper surface extending between the medial side and the lateral side. A first toe loop extends upwardly from the medial side. The first toe loop has a first size. A second toe loop extends upwardly from the lateral side. The second toe loop has a second size, smaller than the first size. A third toe loop extends upwardly between the first toe loop and the second toe loop. The third toe loop is smaller than the first toe loop.

Claims (18)

1. A foot pad comprising: a generally planar substrate having a medial side, a lateral side, an anterior portion, and a posterior portion; an upper surface of the substrate extending between the medial side, the lateral side, the anterior portion, and the posterior portion; a first toe loop extending upwardly from the medial side with a first edge, the first toe loop having a first size and being adapted to fit a big toe; a second toe loop extending upwardly from the lateral side with a second edge, the second toe loop having a second size and being adapted to fit a pinky toe, smaller than the first size; a third toe loop extending upwardly between the first toe loop and the second toe loop, the third toe loop having a third edge, and the third toe loop being smaller than the first toe loop and being adapted sized to fit a fourth toe; wherein the substrate further comprises the anterior portion having an anterior edge and the posterior portion having a posterior edge; and wherein the first edge, the second edge, the third edge, the anterior edge, and the posterior edge together form a continuous edge.

2. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the third toe loop is larger than the second toe loop.

3. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the first toe loop has a first side extending from the medial side and a second side attached to the upper surface.

4. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the second toe loop has a first side extending from the lateral side and a second side attached to the upper surface.

5. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the third toe loop has a first side extending upwardly from the upper surface and a second side extending upwardly from the upper surface.

6. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the first, second, and third toe loops are attached to the anterior portion.

7. The foot pad according to claim 1 , further comprising an adhesive on the upper surface, and wherein the foot pad further comprises an adhesive backing releasably attached to the adhesive.

8. The foot pad according to claim 7 , wherein the adhesive backing comprises a pull tab attached to an anterior portion of the adhesive backing and extending toward a posterior portion of the cover.

9. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein the first toe loop tapers from the lateral side toward the medial side.

10. The foot pad according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one toe loop extending between the first toe loop and the third toe loop.

11. The foot pad according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the toe loops has at least one indicia extending in a medial-to-lateral direction around the circumference of the at least one of the toe loops.

12. A foot pad comprising: a generally planar substrate having a medial side, a lateral side, an anterior portion, and a posterior portion; an upper surface of the substrate extending between the medial side, the lateral side, the anterior portion, and the posterior portion; a first toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate proximal to the medial side and having a first edge, the first toe loop having a first size; a second toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate proximal to the lateral side and having a second edge, the second toe loop having a second size, smaller than the first size; and a third toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate between the first toe loop and the second toe loop, the third toe loop having a third edge, and the third toe loop having a third size, smaller than the first size; wherein the substrate further comprises the anterior portion having an anterior edge and the posterior portion having a posterior edge; and wherein the first edge, the second edge, the third edge, the anterior edge, and the posterior edge together form a continuous edge.

13. The foot pad according to claim 12 , wherein the first toe loop comprises an arcuate top wall extending from the medial side toward the third toe loop.

14. The foot pad according to claim 12 , wherein the second toe loop comprises an arcuate top wall extending from the lateral side toward the third toe loop.

15. The foot pad according to claim 12 , further comprising at least one toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate between the first toe loop and the third toe loop.

16. The foot pad according to claim 12 , wherein at least one of the toe loops has at least one perforation extending in a medial-to-lateral direction around the circumference of the at least one of the toe loops.

17. The foot pad according to claim 12 , further comprising an adhesive on the substrate.

18. A foot pad comprising: a generally planar substrate having a medial side, a lateral side, an anterior portion, and a posterior portion; an upper surface of the substrate extending between the medial side, the lateral side, the anterior portion, and the posterior portion; a first toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate and having a first edge, the first toe loop having a first size adapted to fit a big toe; a second toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate and having a second edge, the second toe loop having a second size adapted to fit a pinky toe, smaller than the first size; a third toe loop extending anteriorly of the substrate between the first toe loop and the second toe loop, the third toe loop having a third edge, and the third toe loop having a size adapted to fit a fourth toe; wherein the substrate further comprises the anterior portion having an anterior edge and the posterior portion having a posterior edge; and wherein the first edge, the second edge, the third edge, the anterior edge, and the posterior edge together form a continuous edge.
