<p>A shoe or other article of footwear has an upper (10), an insole (14) secured at its periphery to the upper and a moulded sole (12) bonded to the insole. At the heel, the edges of the insole and upper meet in a butt joint (32) which is secured by zig-zag overstitching so that there are no internal contours rendering the shoe uncomfortable or preventing the heel of the shoe from giving full and uniform support. At the toes, the edges of the insole and upper are turned outwardly (26, 30) and secured together.</p> |
