A molded insole includes a base, an internal lateral arch that is provided to accommodate the arch of the foot and that is raised relative to the base, and at least one hard region that is integrated into the base, having a hardness equal to or greater than that of the base. The base and the internal lateral arch of the insole constitute a single, mono-material part.

A pressure-relieving footwear is an apparatus that supports and comforts a user's foot. The apparatus absorbs shock that traverses through the footwear, limiting the impact against the foot of the user. The apparatus includes a footwear, a cushioning layer, a support layer, and a first shock absorbing pad. The footwear protects user's foot and enhances the outfit of the user. The footwear includes an insole, an outsole, and an elongated heel. The outsole includes a forefoot portion and an aft portion. The cushioning layer absorbs the shock and the support layer cradles the foot. The insole is connected across the outsole. The cushioning layer is connected across the insole, opposite to the outsole. The support layer is connected across the cushioning layer, opposite the insole. The elongated heel is connected adjacent to the outsole. The first shock absorbing pad is integrated into the footwear, adjacent to the forefoot portion.

Disclosed herein are insoles useful for treating skin injuries on a foot, for instance ulcers. The insoles are customizable for each patient's foot and can include various portions of differing softness, depending on the needs of the patient. For instance, it can be beneficial for certain sections of the foot to contact a firmer material, whereas other sections contact a softer material. Some, or all, of the materials can include one or more biofidelic skin simulant materials. Thus, various implementations include one or more regions that can include the same or different materials. For example, a custom insole can include a heel support region, a midfoot support region, and a forefoot support region, and the support regions can be subdivided into medial and lateral support regions or toe regions. One or more regions may have a custom isolation segment to prevent the progression of ulcers and/or expedite wound healing.

The present invention is footwear having a convex shaped outsole with opposing wedge shaped configurations in the bottom of the front sole section and the back sole section which provide rotation of the front sole section and the back sole section in opposite directions when weight is applied. The present invention is also footwear convex shaped in the longitudinal direction with a split sole having opposing wedge shaped configurations in the bottom of the front sole section and the back sole section that provide rotation of the front sole section and the back sole section in opposite directions when weight is applied. The invention further includes footwear having at least one pair of wedges on the outsole which provide footwear having improved arch support. The invention is also footwear with a flexible, elastic, member between the front sole section and the back sole section of the sole.

A shoe sole includes an outsole and a sole body. The sole body includes a low hardness portion made of a foam material having relatively low hardness and a high hardness portion made of a foam material having relatively high hardness. The low hardness portion is provided to define an entire area of a lower surface of the sole body. The high hardness portion is disposed only in a specific region of a region located above the low hardness portion of the sole body.
