METHOD OF MANUFACTURE OF SHOES AND SHOES THUS MANUFACTURED

摘要

In a first overmolding operation, a starting element in the form of a high-cut sock lining of flexible material such as leather is coated with a composition which permits bonding and is then overmolded with a part forming an instep shank for the sole, a rear stiffening counter and a heel seat of heel body. In a second overmolding operation, the shoe is overmolded on both the upper and the body of the sole with an outer coating which consists of relatively flexible plastic material. Potential applications of the shoe include sports such as ice skating, skiing, mountaineering and football.
