To give shoes a long-term bactericidal effect by applying in it inside a bactericidal layer made from either copper fiber, silver fiber or mixture of copper and silver fiber.
Inside of the bactericidal shoe 1 is applied a sheet type bactericidal layer 5 covering the inner surface of an in-sole 3 up to a toe 4 of a shoe body 2. The bactericidal layer 5 made of one or several layer(s) of the sheet(s) interwoven longways and sideways with extreme thin copper fiber is fixed to the inside of the in-sole 3 up to the upper top of the toe 4 turned on the front using several snaps 8. A porous shield layer 6 is glued onto the upper surface of the bactericidal layer 5. Such a shield layer 6 made of a sheet interwoven with moisture absorbent cotton or synthetic resin threads having a number of air holes is to protect the bactericidal layer 5 with its effective moisture and shock absorbability. Copper elements contained in the bactericidal layer 5 is to give high efficiency anti-bacteria, bactericidal and anti-fungi effects to the inside of the shoe body 2.
