Abstract: A sole includes an upper surface defining a support surface that supports a bottom of a foot of a wearer, a lower surface defining a ground contact surface, and a peripheral surface connecting the upper surface and the lower surface. The upper surface includes an MP joint support region that supports the bottom of the foot at a position corresponding to an MP joint of the foot of the wearer, and the peripheral surface includes a pair of side surfaces including a medial foot side surface located on a medial foot side and a lateral foot side surface located on a lateral foot side. Among the pair of side surfaces, a portion adjacent to the MP joint support region of at least one side surface is provided with an indicator visually indicating that the portion is different from the other portion of the one side surface.

Abstract: A shoe sole includes a sole body portion and a plate portion. The sole body portion is located to continuously extend from a front foot portion to a rear foot portion. The plate portion is located to continuously extend from the front foot portion to the rear foot portion, joined to the sole body portion, and formed of a material higher in rigidity than a material forming the sole body portion. The plate portion includes an exposed region and an accommodated region. The exposed region forms a ground contact surface of the shoe sole at least in the front foot portion. The accommodated region is accommodated inside the sole body portion at least in the rear foot portion. In at least a part of the middle foot portion and at least a part of the rear foot portion, the plate portion is inclined upward as it extends rearward.

Abstract: A sole includes a midsole, and the midsole includes a toe support portion, a midfoot support portion, and an intervening portion. The sole includes a toe contact surface and a midfoot contact surface. The intervening portion has a recessed portion having a shape recessed from an imaginary curved surface toward a side of a wearer's foot. A length between the imaginary curved surface and the recessed portion is greater than or equal to 13% and less than or equal to 50% of a thickness of a portion of the intervening portion where the recessed portion is provided. The midsole has a front side region surrounded by a front line and a rear line, and an area of the recessed portion in plan view is greater than or equal to 35% and less than or equal to 50% of an area of the front side region in plan view.

Abstract: A sole includes a midsole. The midsole includes: a first support portion that is configured to support a front portion of an MP joint of a wearer's foot; and a second support portion that is configured to support a rear portion of the MP joint of the wearer's foot, the second support portion having a shape extending rearward from the first support portion in a foot length direction. The first support portion has an elastic modulus lower than an elastic modulus of the second support portion. The midsole includes a thenar region surrounded by a first portion, a second portion, a third portion, and a fourth portion. A boundary portion between the first support portion and the second support portion passes through the thenar region.

Abstract: A shoe sole includes a body portion and a heel holding portion. The heel holding portion is located opposite to a ground contact surface of the body portion and holds a heel portion of a foot at least from a medial foot side. The body portion includes a low hardness portion and a high hardness portion. The high hardness portion is a foam material harder than a foam material of the low hardness portion. The heel holding portion is a resin harder than the foam material of the low hardness portion and the foam material of the high hardness portion. On the medial foot side in a rear foot portion, the low hardness portion is located between the heel holding portion and the high hardness portion in an up-down direction.
