ABSTRACT:
An article of footwear is provided. The article includes a sole which has forefoot and rearfoot portions. The sole forefoot portion has both a medial and a lateral aspect. The sole forefoot portion is comprised of different compressibilities of materials selected and arranged across the width thereof such that the sole effectively slopes at an angle upwardly from the lateral aspect to the medial aspect when weight-bearing forces are exerted on the forefoot and thereby providing an effective inclined surface of resultant thickness greater at the medial aspect of the forefoot than at the lateral aspect as a result of less compressible material at the medial aspect of the forefoot than at the lateral aspect when the sole of said article of footwear is intended for use by individuals whose feet have a tendency toward compensation in a pronated direction due to their inherent inverted forefoot varus foot type.
Conversely, whereby the sole forefoot portion is comprised of different compressibilities of materials selected and arranged across the width thereof such that the sole effectively slopes at an angle upwardly from the medial aspect to the lateral aspect when weight-bearing forces are exerted on the forefoot and thereby providing an effective inclined surface of resultant thickness greater at the lateral aspect of the forefoot than at the medial aspect as a result of less compressible material at the lateral aspect of the forefoot than at the medial aspect when the sole of said article of footwear is intended for use by individuals whose feet have a tendency toward compensation in a supinated direction due to their inherent everted forefoot valgus foot type.
