    (54) Shoes and method of making same


    (57) A shoe comprising preformed upper (3) and sole members joined by stitching and a method of making the same, in which a narrow periphery member (7) is disposed between the upper and sole members and along the outer periphery of the sole member (1), and the periphery member is adhered to the sole member with adhesive agent after the upper member is first stitched to the periphery member. The periphery member has an L-shaped cross-section and includes a flat and narrow horizontal adhesive margin portion (9) conforming to the periphery of the sole member and a side wall portion (10) extending vertically therefrom, and it is stitched to the upper member in the side wall portion and adhered to the sole member in the adhesive margin portion. It is very easy to use a sewing machine for stitching the periphery member to the upper member since the periphery member surrounds a large opening therein.
