ABSTRACT:
Athletic footwear for non-contact or light-contact sports having a resilient sole portion to which front and rear upper portions of reinforced canvas or rubber material are securely attached. Foot protection and mobility are optimized by isolating the plural upper portions, one from the other, and by positioning the front and rear upper portions so as to be effective at points of maximum foot flexibility, namely, over the ball of the foot and across the ankle. Leather reinforcement of the canvas portions at both the bosses through which laces are passed for drawing the shoe to the wearer's foot and at the exposed edges of the canvas uppers prevents discomfort to a sockless user while permitting maximum absorption of stress at these points.
