Abstract

An orthotic (1) article of footwear and a corresponding method of manufacture is disclosed. An upper of the article of footwear has an orthotic (1) affixed thereto so as to define a footbed. The orthotic (1) has an upper surface shaped to define a profiled upper surface of the footbed and a lower surface. The lower surface has one or more keying formation (6). An outer sole (4, 5) has a mating surface and an outer surface, wherein the mating surface has one or more corresponding keying formation (6), and the orthotic (1) is further affixed to the outer sole (4, 5) such that the keying formation (6) of the orthotic (1) mates with the corresponding keying formation (6) of the outer sole (4, 5). The orthotic (1) is permanently integrated into the article of footwear. The profile of the upper surface of the orthotic (1) is tilted or inclined by 1 ° to 2° relative to a plane of the outer surface of the outer sole (4, 5) at least in a heel region of the article of footwear.
