<p>A sole (10) for an article of footware and a method of manufacturing such a sole includes steps such that the sole includes a substantially planar outer surface (18), a side wall (26) provided on the periphery of the outer surface and a curved medial forefoot portion (14). The sole is particularly well suited for motions and movements performed on a court surface such as during racquetball, tennis and basketball, for example. Preferably, the curvature of the medial forefoot portion is tangential with the outer surface of the sole and the radius of curvature gradually increases from the area of the medial forefoot adjacent the arch towards the front end portion of the sole.</p> |
