ABSTRACT:
An athletic shoe for runners, joggers, and the like includes a backtab at the upper heel/counter portion of the shoe which extends somewhat along both the lateral and medial sides of the shoe. The backtab is characterized as a cushioning member and it includes a cut-out or notch to accommodate the Achilles tendon of the foot to reduce or substantially eliminate stress and pressure on the Achilles tendon which may result in aggravation or injury to the tendon.
