Abstract

A footwear sole structure has a suspended elastomer web or mesh (1) support for a foot of a wearer of the footwear. A gap or space under the web/mesh allows it to flex down e.g. towards the outsole (3) or the ground. The web or mesh can be secured to a peripheral portion of the sole base by projections or loops (5) on the web or mesh. The web or mesh can be a one piece or multi part moulded component. The web or mesh can provide a peripheral zone around a central zone. The central body (2) can be a moulding incorporating a front strap pair (6) and rear strap pair (7) folded up into a wearing position and lugs (8), and have a higher density elastomer sole that fits up and is bonded into a matching lip in the base of the central body (2) and the elastomer web or mesh (1) fits down over the central body (2) such that the loops (5) stretch around corresponding lugs (8) on the central body (2) and the web or mesh (1) is largely held in pre-tension via the strength of the sole supports and there is still space between the web or mesh 1 and the sole for the web/mesh (1) to flex down into via weight of foot.1. The present invention advantageously provides a unique arrangement for footwear where the principle feature negates the need for the normal compression cushioning sole design and instead utilizes a suspended flexible elastomer mesh or web which, placed under tension by the flexing down under foot weight, provides an upward reaction force to support the weight applied through the foot of the wearer.
