A method for manufacturing two-color components, for shoes in general, including the steps of positioning a sheet element, made of rubber, in a mold that forms a plurality of cavities delimited by edges the free end whereof lies on the parting plane of the mold. A sheet of plastic material which has a release function is then superimposed on the sheet element, and a layer is positioned on the sheet in order to give mechanical strength thereto. The mold is then closed with a cover, applying pressure together with heating in order to fill the cavities with the rubber and simultaneously move the rubber away from the edges. After removing the layer and the sheet together with any flash of rubber present on the edges, a second sheet element is superimposed, and pressure and heating are applied in order to produce bonding with the perforated sheet element; after this, the resulting article, which has a two-color appearance, is subjected to vulcanization.
