A footwear stability and comfort system (footwear system) comprises an insole having an anatomic footbed, and footwear incorporating the insole. The disclosed footwear system is designed to provide a cradle around the bottom and sides of the foot for support during flexion while walking, and for proper placement of the foot within the shoe.

An article of footwear, such as a high heeled shoe, has a resilient midsole layer having a thickness of at least about 5 mm which is formed in a lattice arrangement for providing comfort to the wearer.

A footwear construction capable of incorporating one to three or more platform layers, or no platform layers at all. The invention comprises a kit including a sneaker member, optionally includable in the final construction first second and third platform members, guide members, optionally in sets of three, suitable for inclusion in a constructed footwear item with one, two or three platform members, and a tread its sole member, optionally replaceable by other types of soles.

An integrated memory foam high heel shoe for comfort and security includes a base having a top side, a bottom side, a flat forefoot portion, an arch portion, a heel portion, and a perimeter. A shoe body is coupled to the perimeter of the base. A memory foam insole is continuously coupled to the top side of the base. A platform is coupled to the bottom side of the base under the forefoot portion and a high heel is coupled to the bottom side of the base under the heel portion.

Shoe systems including a sole with a plurality of fasteners disposed about the sole perimeter, the fasteners capable of securing a variety of uppers using only appropriately placed holes in each upper. In some examples, the sole includes sleeves that receive and secure corresponding pins, with the sleeves secured between two layers that create cavities for each sleeve. In other examples, the sleeves are secured within a single molded layer. In some further examples, the sole includes hooks for securing an upper. In still further examples, the sole includes a flange for hiding the fastening mechanism.

There are disclosed high heel shoes where separate components combine to create load balancing internal footwear technology. A two-piece system includes interlocking toe bed and shank constructed of complex three dimensional curved surfaces which create an intricately sculpted volume to provide structural support down the length of the entire foot. The toe bed provides a wide base and keeps the big toe pointed straight (at an approximately 10 angle). A heel maximizes the surface area of the bottom of the heel at the point of strike with the ground while retaining a minimal and aesthetically appealing silhouette from the side view. The toe bed and shank feature a composition of layered materials which when combined work to provide both stability and shock absorption to the ball of the foot during the foot strike of walking. An internal support structure provides a padded barrier and intermediary between the rigidity of the shank and the softness of the shoe upper.
