For Snow And Ice Roads, Anti Slip Soles Should Be Selected.

In recent days Market The shoe counters are crowded, but people generally do not know the sole materials. Gym shoes and Outdoor shoes The most slippery.

On the 13 day, a heavy snowfall caused Dalian citizens to be caught off guard. The icy roads and slippery soles caused a sharp increase in the number of people who slipped and fell. According to statistics, the number of fractures in Dalian exceeded 1000 on the three day. Many people who fall down, especially those wearing "antiskid" sports shoes, wonder why they are slipping away with their feet. The weather department predicts that the rain and snow this winter will be more frequent than in previous years. However, a press survey found that the public had almost failed in the "homework" of shoes.

　　 95% of people believe that their soles are not slippery.

Three days ago, the shoe counters in the major shopping malls were all very lively. Everyone was asking for a thing -- which shoes were more slippery? On the afternoon of 13, the reporters observed 50 customers in and out of the shoe area in several business circles. 30% of the female customers wore medium and high heels, and about 50% of them wore moving shoes, and 20% of them wore all kinds of casual shoes. About 95% of the journalists interviewed said their shoes were not skid resistant, and the other 5% said they could do it with caution.

"Before buying shoes did not consider the performance of skid resistance, generally recognized the name brand, but today is a heavy fall." Mr. Liu, wearing a pair of brand sports shoes, bought more than 700 yuan of money on his feet, and had a deep texture on his sole. He felt good all the time, but this time he suffered losses on the ice and snow road.

The soles are not slippery, and looking for a better pair of shoes is the reason why Mr. Liu and others walk into the mall at the first time after work.

　 What material does the sole of the shoe sell?

The reporter followed two customers who bought a pair of skid shoes together in the mall, and the salesmen at each counter explained the antiskid shoes in a strange way. Among them, the vast majority of salesmen indicated that the deeper the shoe sole, the better the skid resistance of the shoes; some salesmen pointed out that the material of the sole was different and the skid resistance was different. For what material is suitable for ice and snow roads, salesmen generally recommend rubber bottom and beef tendon bottom. Some people recommend lightweight and wearable polyurethane base. In addition, there is a rubber like "mixed bottom" with no specific ingredients. The only thing that everyone agrees is that the plastic bottom is the most unsuitable for ice and snow. The bottom of this material is usually used on low grade shoes, though light but not strong, the key is walking on ice and snow roads like wearing a pair of skates.

And in sports shoes counters, reporters saw that most of the counters clearly marked the functions of shoes, including basketball shoes, jogging shoes, casual shoes and so on. The salesmen of famous brands such as Adidas and Nike also gave clear answers when answering customers' questions: "there are no antiskid shoes suitable for icing roads." In a word, it negates the judgment that all sports shoes should be skid proof.

　　 Lower cost to lower the skid resistance of sole

"How many times a year does this weather happen?" In the face of business opportunities, many businesses refuse decisively. But in the interview, the reporters found that the merchants of the "rain and snow day skid shoes" signboards attracted many customers. A lot of businesses have put out the old ones. "Most of the soles are rubber, and they are not sold out of fashion. But these days, old people buy shoes only to see the sole, and the demand for style is very low. On the 3 floor of Wenzhou City, a businessman scavenged the shoes he had just put out and told reporters.

A shopkeeper of the middle-aged and old leather shoes shop, Mr. Liu told reporters that there are 5 kinds of shoes on the market: RB bottom, commonly known as rubber bottom, but good wear resistance. TPR bottom is light but not wearable and environmentally friendly. The bottom of PR, commonly known as polyamine base, is light but not wearable. It can be decomposed automatically and is very environmentally friendly. At the bottom of MD, it is commonly known as Huai long outsole, the bottom is rubber sheet, the upper part is high elastic EVA, PVC bottom, plastic bottom, not wear-resistant, mainly used for low-grade shoes; as for those mixed materials sole, it is unclear what ingredients and functions are inside.

"The cost of a pair of shoes and used rubber is higher than that of polyamine or plastic. And now all pay attention to fast food consumption, a pair of shoes can wear for two years, they are good shoes, and those who buy fashionable shoes pay more attention to the style and upper leather cortex, and pay little attention to the slippage of sole. Mr. Liu said.

　　 Soft rubber foam and foam bottom snow catch more ground.

What kind of soles are skid proof and the coefficient of skid resistance is large? There is no uniform standard in the market at present. This is the main reason that consumers are troubled by the purchase.

During the interview, most people felt that the concept of "skid resistance" appeared more frequently in advertising campaigns for sports shoes and outdoor shoes, but there were few such descriptions in fashion shoes. So when they wear their own most slippery shoes, they still have difficulty in walking on the icy road.

And reporters learned that before, the Dalian outdoor sports circle had once tested the "grip" of different material soles. An outdoor coach, "boulder", said in an interview with reporters: "many people have misconceptions about the concept of outdoor shoes. In fact, the skid resistance of outdoor shoes is targeted at the field environment of rock roads, gravel roads, muddy roads and so on. It is not suitable for smooth marble pavement and ice snow roads, and so are many sports shoes."

"Most brand outdoor shoes soles are made of V rubber, wear resistant, have a deep large texture, also known as V bottom. The harder the rubber is, the more slippery the road is, the smaller the friction between the shoe and the ground, the more slippery it is. In view of the road condition after rain and snow, we should choose those shoes with soft rubber texture, many lines and large floor area.

"Bubble bottom snow shoes are cheap, but they have good skid resistance on ice and snow roads. Their principles are similar to those of rubbing glass when they are rubbing glass, and they also help to increase friction. Boulder emphasizes, "even so, you have to walk with caution, because for the icy road, whether it is a foamed base or a soft rubber base, the skid resistance is limited."
