현대인의 생활환경 변화에 따라 레져 산업의 급격한 증가로 인해 관련산업에 많은 영향을 주고 있다. 특히 스포츠 분야에서는 의류, 신발 및 장비 분야에서 새로운 제품에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이들 제품이 요구하는 물성은 각종 기후조건에서 인체를 보호하고 착용자가 쾌적함을 느낄 수 있어야 한다. 이러한 기능을 충족시키기 위해서는 운동 중에 발생하는 땀을 발산하고 외부에서의 수분의 침투를 막아 체온의 급격한 변화가 나타나지 않도록 투습방수성을 나타내어야 한다. (중략)

The Busan shoe industry has been the accelerating overseas transfer of production facilities due to loss of competitiveness in the wake of drastic revaluation of the won, an increase in personnel expenses and the rise of backup developing countries since the late 1980s. On account of changes in the general system of supply and demand caused by a decrease in exports and production, the Industrial structure has been subjected to a transition from export to domestic demand. As a result, the Busan shoe industry, which used to rank second in the world in terms of its shoe export and to account for 16.5% in terms of its market share, started to be regarded as a fast-fading industry. As a domestic companies have a tendency to almost all the tasks on bloc, it is true that their competitiveness is on the rapid decline for they prefer self-reliance on the premise that all the production should be dealt with for themselves. It is outsourcing that is taken into account as a strategic vehicle for converting such self-reliance into the system of low expenditure and high efficiency.

경량소재로 사용되는 polyurethane은 난연화 및 강도유지를 위해 난연제, 섬유 및 무기충진제 등을 첨가하거나 고밀도화하여 사용하며 발포시켜 경량화하여 성형된다. Polyurethane 발포체는 자동차 내장재, 건축 구조재, 건축 내외장재, 가구재, 포장재료, 신발, 의류 제품, 단열재 등 다양하게 사용되고 있다. 이러한 polyurethane 발포체는 제조 및 가공의 편리함에 비해 화재발생시 연기발생량이 많고 연소가 용이하여 화재를 전파하는 매개물의 역할을 하여 피해를 더욱 가중시키는 취약점을 가지고 있다. (중략)

The shoe manufacturing process is very low compared to other industries due to the labor-intensive process. As automation and smart factories are becoming more and more automated, changes in the shoe manufacturing process are also needed. In this paper, we want to standardize the fuse manufacturing process by modularizing it. First, we defined the terms of shoeupper and fuse process, the shoe upper fuse process by function and classified it as a modular process. The fuse process can be modularized with pattern supply module, pattern recognition module, pattern laminate module, pattern waiting module, adhesion module, heat pressing module, transmission module, etc.

This study aims to categorize age groups for shoes manufacturing including shoes size and boot tree development for Koreans. In order to carry out the research, the characteristics of different parts of foot in relation to size are analyzed according to age and sex, making use of human body measurement database. As a result of statistical analysis, it was found that the measurement items such as foot length, metatarsal tibiale, foot breadth and instep circumference of a person reached the range of standard deviation and average numerical figures of an adult group (18-24) from the age of 14 in men's case, and from 12 for women's case, which indicates the time of completion of their foot growth. Based on these findings where males of 14 years old and females of 12 are within similar measurement range to adults, it is necessary to categorize the age groups for shoe sizing system into the following four groups: males 13 years old or under, males 14 years old or over, females 11 years or under, and females 12 years or over. The proportional measurement produced by dividing each measurement item of foot parts by foot length was compared in an independent samples t-test, and there were meaningful differences according to different foot shapes of the two age groups of males 13 or under - males 14 or over, and females 11 or under - females 12 or over. Also, the independent samples t-test for the age groups of males 13 or under - females 11 or under, and males 14 or over - female 12 or over, showed similar meaningful differences, which indicates the differences in foot shapes of male and female during the period of growth.

This study is to help produce highly comfortable and wearable and footwear based on the establishment of basic data for manufacturing elderly footwear patterns and products. For this, a survey of 207 women in their 20s and 60-70s was conducted to identify the wearing of shoes, inconvenience areas, purchase practices and footwear preferences by age group. The results are as follows. First, the average age of the young female group was 22.5 years old, the elderly female group was 68.8 years old, and the average shoe size was 236.3 mm for the young female group and 238.3 mm for the elderly female group. Second, young women wore shoes for a longer time than elderly women, resulting in swollen and numb legs, hardened soles, uncomfortable toes and sore heels. However, elderly women felt more uncomfortable wearing footwear than young women. They suffered pain in the joint area, heal and toe areas as well as had more toe deformations due to aging. Third, all age groups preferred athletic shoes and loafers as well as purchases from footwear brand stores and department stores. The elderly spent more money on shoes, longer time to buy and valued the feeling of wearing, whereas the young considered design first. Fourth, both age groups prefer low-heels and natural leather, the young preferred to wear various types of shoes; however, the elderly are found to desire shoes that are comfortable and stable in both form and wearing.

This paper considers the moisture permeability and fashion in the upper fabrics of cotton fabric shoes woven into various tissues and properties measured to examine the use as upper fabrics. We measured the tissues of the manufactured upper fabric are 1/3 twill, $4{\times}4$ weft rib, Maya, Triple, Deformed twill design (DTD), Diamond tissues and tear strength, tensile strength, breaking elongation, stretching under load at 100N, stitch tear resistance, and fastness. In the case of $4{\times}4$ weft rib, the tear strength and tensile strength were excellent; however, the elongation and stitch tear resistance at 100N load were less than the standard value. DTD fabrics are characterized by physical properties in the warp direction that are superior to those in the weft direction; however, the tear strength and tensile strength in the weft direction are less than the standard value. The 1/3 twill fabrics showed high tensile strength value and stitch tear resistance value in the warp direction; however, toughness, the main property of the shoe upper, was below the standard value. Triple and diamond fabrics, which have a significant effect on the performance of the shoe upper fabric, also had less than the standard value of tear strength. Maya upper fabric for shoes has better properties than other upper fabrics except for the elongation at break, and the stitch tear resistance has a value of 178% in the warp direction and 214% in the weft direction compared to the standard value. Therefore, the Maya fabric showed the possibility of being used as an upper textile for shoes.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the present condition of the Korean footwear industry, and its competitiveness through related precedent research. Research was done by analyzing data from the Korean Statistical Information Service, the Korea International Trade Association and advanced research about the footwear industry. Footwear markets all over the world are growing continuously. The main consumers are China, America and India. World footwear trade is showing a growth trend on the basis of cost and amount. The main exporting countries are China, Vietnam and Italy, while main importing countries are America, Germany and France. The domestic market and the export market of footwear in Korea are decreasing. The scale of exporting footwear is gradually decreasing, however the scale of importing footwear is increasing. Korea exports footwear to China, Vietnam and Japan and imports them from China, Vietnam and Indonesia. Studies concening the footwear industry implied that the competitiveness of Korea has been weakened both in the domestic and the export markets. To enhance the competitiveness of Korean footwear corporations, long-term support at the national level is needed. Especially, cultivating competitive experts is crucial to improve the competitiveness of designs and the quality of products. Furthermore, branding strategies using the Korean wave, Korean culture and the national image of Korea, as well as platform strategies to communicate with consumers globally and selling high-quality products are significant.
