Abstract

Abstract The present invention involves an inner shoe material with adsorbent properties, whereby activated carbon particles are fixed as the adsorbent material by means of an adhesive substance in a punctiform manner to the side of the material facing away from the foot. The inner shoe material of the invention can be designed as inside lining, insoles, slipsoles, as inner sole of the shoe or as a covering material for the inner sole of the shoe. The inner shoe material of the invention can e.g. be used for combat boots with integrated C-protection or for safety boots with protection against aggressive chemicals. The inner shoe material has the advantage that it exhibits a high degree of scuff resistance on the one hand and the adsorbent activated carbon is freely accessible to the substances to be adsorbed, on the other.
