The layered structure disposed in each of a front middle portion 2c, a front lower portion 2g, a frontal lower portion 4f, and a right surface front upper portion 6b having a high geometric factor for the lower leg includes a surface layer 14, a structural parent layer 11, and a temperature control mechanism layer 13 interposed between the surface layer 14 and the structural parent layer 11.
