An article of footwear includes an upper and a sole structure with a sole member. The sole member can include a set of apertures that is formed along various surfaces of the sole member. The sole member can be manufactured using a customized cushioning sole system, forming generally circular patterns throughout the sole member. A user's foot morphology and/or preferences may be used to design the sole member.

A shoe insole and a shoe with an insole structure, which are capable of, concerning the foot arch structure, preventing fallen arches, restoring and correcting the arches, as well as allowing the wearers to maintain the sense of balance. The shoe insole comprises an insole main body having a substantially foot shape; a lower cushioning portion provided on the insole main body in a front portion thereof for supporting a part from the tiptoe to the position of the metatarsal head part; an upper cushioning portion having a substantially U shape provided on the lower cushioning portion for supporting a part corresponding to the positions of the toe, the first toe ball, and the fifth toe ball; and a heel supporting portion provided on the insole main body in a back portion thereof for supporting a portion corresponding to the position of the heel.

A sole structure for an article of footwear includes a cushioning element having a top surface, a bottom surface formed on an opposite side of the cushioning element from the top surface, a ramp surface spaced apart from the bottom surface in a heel region of the cushioning element, a heel pocket extending through the cushioning element from the top surface to the ramp surface, and a plurality of pillars extending from the ramp surface and surrounding the pocket. The sole structure additionally includes a plurality of cushioning particles disposed within the pocket, an outsole attached to the cushioning element and enclosing a first end of the pocket, and an upper barrier layer attached to the top surface of the cushioning element and covering a second end of the pocket.

A high heel shoe has an insole, an outsole, and a shank embedded between the insole and outsole, the shank comprising a heel portion with a depression to accommodate a user's heel, and a lateral ridge element in front of the heel portion that exerts pressure against the forward movement of a user's heel when worn. The shank further comprises a front portion sloping downward from the lateral ridge along the arch of the insole, which optionally is padded.

An article of footwear includes an upper and a sole structure with a sole member. The sole member can be manufactured using a customized cushioning sole system. A user's foot morphology and/or preferences may be used to design the sole member. The sole member can include a set of pinpoint apertures that are formed along the outer surface of the sole member to form at least a first distribution of apertures associated with a first density and a second distribution of apertures associated with a second density, wherein the first density is greater than the second density.

An insole device with the balancing, correcting, cushioning and supporting functions includes an insole body, reinforced hard strips are disposed on a bottom surface of the insole body, the reinforced hard strips crisscross around the bottom surface of the insole body, first through holes are evenly formed in the bottom surface of the insole body, the first through holes are located in gaps between the criss-crossed reinforced hard strips, and a second through hole is formed in a heel position of the insole body. The insole body is of a 3D stereoscopic arch structure, with an arch arc height of 15+/−10 mm. The insole body is formed by integrated injection of special nylon material, with a thickness of 2.5-10 mm, and a hardness of 30 D-100 D.

Sandals with biomechanical foot support, robust usability and cost-effectiveness are disclosed. The footwear may comprise a biomechanical sole and a Y-shaped rubber strap anchored to the sole. The sole has a top surface including a raised contour on the medial side of the sandal, and a low profile heel cup. The raised contour on the medial side and the heel cup match the natural anatomic shape of the foot, and thus provides a biomechanical foot support. The bottom surface of the sole may be a roughed surface to provide necessary traction and friction when a wearer/user walks. The bottom surface further comprises a plurality of grooves to allow water to be expelled and increase traction.
