A book mold for producing a plurality of flat footwear soles simultaneously includes opposed top and bottom molds, each of which includes a pair of mold cavities; and an intermediate mold defined by a plate connected to one end of the bottom mold by a piano hinge. The intermediate mold is closed on the bottom mold, and the top mold is clamped on the intermediate mold using a clamping cylinder. Thermoplastic material is injected into the mold cavities through a port defined by a square slot in the intermediate mold, resulting in a large sprue in the intermediate mold. The soles remained attached to the intermediate mold, and when the mold is opened all soles are removed rapidly.
