Athletic positioning apparatus and applications thereof
An apparatus includes a heel section, a mid-foot section, and a toe section. The heel section, the mid-foot section, and the toe section collectively have a geometric shape having a first slope of a polarity along an inner edge of the apparatus from the toe section to the heel section and a second slope of the polarity along the inner edge of the apparatus to an outer edge of the apparatus at the toe section.
1. An athletic shoe comprises:
an upper section; and
an athletic positioning sole section coupled to the upper section, wherein the athletic positioning sole section includes:
a heel platform having a first height that is substantial uniform from an inner edge of the sole section to an outer edge of the sole section;
an angled platform juxtaposed to the heel platform,
wherein the angled platform includes a midfoot section juxtaposed to a toe section,
wherein the toe section includes a big toe area and a small toe area,
wherein the small toe area is at a lower position than the heel platform,
wherein the big toe area is at a lower position than the small toe area, and
wherein, from the inner edge to the outer edge at a cross section at a ball of foot, a bottom of the athletic positioning sole is substantially linear.
2. The athletic shoe of claim 1 , wherein the toe section area further comprises:
the ball of foot.
3. The athletic shoe of claim 1 , wherein the toe section comprises:
downward slope from the small toe area to the big toe area.
4. The athletic shoe of claim 1 further comprises:
the small toe area have a first compression level; and
the big toe area have a second compression level, wherein the second compression level is greater than the first compression level, and wherein, when the athletic shoe is worn, weight of the wearer compresses the big toe area more than the weight compresses the small toe area, thereby further lowering the big toe area with respect to the small toe area.
5. The athletic shoe of claim 4 further comprises:
the heel platform being constructed of a first material; and
the angle platform being constructed of a second material, wherein the second material has a gradient compression factor that provides the first and second compression levels.
6. The athletic shoe of claim 1 , wherein the angled platform further comprises:
a first slope along an outer edge of the athletic positioning sole from the heel platform to the small toe area;
a second slope along a front edge of the athletic positioning sole from the small toe area to the big toe area; and
a third slope along an inner edge of the athletic positioning sole from the heel section to big toe area, wherein the third slope is greater than the first slope, wherein the outer edge corresponds to an outer position where an outer portion of a foot contacts the athletic positioning sole, wherein the inner edge corresponds to an inner position where an inner portion of the foot contacts the athletic positioning sole, and wherein the front edge corresponds to a front position where toes of the foot contact the athletic positioning sole.
7. The athletic shoe of claim 1 further comprises:
the lower position of the of the small toe area with respect to the heel platform corresponds to the small toe area being closer to a bottom of the athletic positioning sole than the heel platform; and
the lower position of the of the big toe area with respect to the small toe area corresponds to the big toe area being closer to the bottom of the athletic positioning sole than the small toe area.
