Another US design patent, USD1038607S1, titled footwear, was awarded for a more crisscrossed design of the Kizik, compressible lattice, spring-back heel technology. This design, comprising increased crisscrossing, designated the Internal Cage™, is actually hidden inside the heel portion of the corresponding Kizik footwear models. The patent was awarded on August 14, 2024.
Below, the patent Figure 1 depicts a left view of the latticed heel structure for footwear, together with an image of an embodiment of the hidden technology, for the marketed Kizik Lima model, in the color grey for men. The dotted lines on the Figure 1 drawing indicate the portion of the design that is unprotected by the patent. As a result, the protected design might be used on a variety of models with different uppers.
