Abstract (en)
This invention is a sole for footwear, to be specific it is a sole of the type that is obtained by injection moulding with plastic materials, such as polyurethane, to ensure that the sole is rigid at the heel end (1) yet extremely flexible in the zone underlying the sole (3) of the foot, characterised by the fact that it is one single piece that is compact and essentially solid that absorbs the slight impacts that are transmitted when the wearer is walking, especially the impacts that are transmitted at the heel, whereas the section underlying the sole of the foot, which is much thinner than the heel section, has a series of grooves running lengthways (4) and transversally (5) on the lower surface, which not only serve to make the sole very flexible but also form studs that give the footwear a secure grip on the ground.
