Non-toxin adhesiveless slipper includes an upper portion and a lower portion; wherein the upper portion and the lower portion are bonded with each other by an adhesive film. A processing method for bonding an upper portion and a lower portion together, including steps of: a. heat melting the EVA and the EAA to form a fluid compound, and blowing the fluid compound on a bottom surface of the upper portion to form an adhesive film; b. placing an isolated paper on the adhesive film; c. placing the upper portion into a heat-pressing machine to ensure the adhesive film and isolated paper securely attached on the bottom surface of the upper portion; d. placing a rubber sheet on a mold to process a heat pressing and then removing the remaining rubber on the contours of the mold to form the lower portion; e. placing the upper portion and the lower portion into a sectional die, and then processing the heat-pressing.

The disclosed embodiments relate to portions of an article of footwear formed from an extruded member. In certain embodiments, a sole or portion of a sole can be formed from one or more extruded members. In certain embodiments, the extruded member can be a single, continuous piece of solid material. In certain embodiments, a sole for an article of footwear can be fashioned from an extruded member formed in a controlled geometric pattern. In certain embodiments, the sole can include one or more layers.

An EVA sole having an upper face and a bottom, comprising an inscribed channel and a plurality of recesses positioned on the upper face, a TPU material disposed of within the inscribed channel, and a nylon stabilizer, which is bonded to the upper face inside of the inscribed channel.

A production method of glueless pasted integrally modeling sole comprising the following steps: taking a rubber outsole compound in a mold to perform partial vulcanization; taking a midsole compound in the mold to simultaneously perform pressurizing and heating together with the rubber outsole compound that has been partially vulcanized to simultaneously generate more vulcanization of the rubber outsole compound and foaming reaction of the midsole compound and occurring adhesion; and completing glueless adhering and pasting for the rubber outsole and the foaming midsole after the mold is cooled down so as to obtain a sole finished product. Accordingly, it can greatly reduce the procedure of forming soles, decrease labor force at great quantity and energy use, and reduce the proportion of producing waste and also achieves the efficacies of reducing costs and energy saving and carbon reduction at the same time.

An insole which provides cushioning and support to a user's foot subjected to a high magnitude of ground reaction forces (GRF) encountered in playing court sports, such as basketball, is herein disclosed. The insole comprises a base having a bottom side which defines recesses adapted to receive pads having particular properties. The location and materials of the various pads and pods work together to provide ground reaction force modulation to the user's foot which is highly desirable for users engaged in basketball and similar activities.

An article of footwear includes a strobel that has a polymeric bladder defining an interior cavity and configured to retain a fluid in the interior cavity. The polymeric bladder has a peripheral flange extending around at least a portion of a perimeter of the interior cavity. A tensile component is disposed in the interior cavity and is secured to opposing inner surfaces of the polymeric bladder. The peripheral flange defines a groove extending along the peripheral flange. The strobel also includes a lasting component configured to extend along the peripheral flange around the at least a portion of the perimeter of the interior cavity. The lasting component is secured to the peripheral flange. A method of manufacturing footwear that includes the strobel is disclosed.

A laminate of the present invention includes a first member which contains a thermoplastic polymer and through which laser light is transmitted and a second member which contains a thermoplastic polymer and absorbs laser light, wherein the first member is directly bonded to the second member, and A represented by the formula 1: A=−9×D+Wa−45 is more than zero. D represents a distance between a Hansen solubility parameter of the thermoplastic polymer of the first member and a Hansen solubility parameter of the thermoplastic polymer of the second member, and Wa represents work of adhesion calculated from each surface free energy of the first member and the second member. Such a first member and a second member are firmly bonded to each other without using a bonding sheet.

Improved soles and insoles for shoes, in particular sports shoes, are described. In an aspect, a sole for a shoe, in particular a sports shoe, with at least a first and a second surface region is provided. The first surface region comprises expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (“TPU”). The second surface region is free from expanded TPU.

An insole for insertion into an article of footwear to alleviate foot pain and a related method of manufacture is disclosed. The multi-layer insole comprises a top layer, a textured layer and a bottom layer. The top layer having first and second impression portions, wherein the first impression conforms to the muscle anatomy and the second impression conforms to the tendon anatomy of the plantar side of the user's foot. The bottom layer having a third impression portion that conforms to a user's skeletal anatomy on the plantar side of the foot. A method of forming the multi-layer insole utilizes a pair of blanks for accepting the foot at different pressures to form negative impressions of the plantar side of the foot. The top and bottom layers of the multi-layer footwear insole are then formed from the negative impressions.

A sockliner for a shoe or other article of footwear is formed having at least one generally flat, planar surface. At least a portion of the sockliner has a linear width that exceeds the linear distance across a width of the shoe. When the sockliner is placed in the shoe, pressure on the wider portions of the sockliner changes the conformation of the sockliner to conform to the shoe.
