<p>A footwear sole is described for correcting or controlling pronation of a wearer's foot during walking or running. The sole includes a longitudinal pronation guiding element of harder material than the surrounding midsole body. The longitudinal pronation guiding element serves to provide a predetermined line of increased hardness which can be sensed by the wearer's foot while walking or running, and which gives the wearer a sensory indication of the correctness, or otherwise, of pronation during each step. A medial pronation control element is provided for correcting overpronation during the initial ground-contact phase of each step, and a lateral pronation control element is provided for correcting underpronation during the mid-forefoot phase of each step.</p> |
