Abstract
A method of making shoes of the type having a soft sole and an insole part used in the method. The insole part is produced by cementing a thin and soft insole sheet on a hard insole base so as to be easily peeled apart and separated. The method includes using the insole part in lieu of a conventional insole, performing a conventional lasting manufacturing method, separating the insole base from the insole sheet and leaving only the insole sheet. A highly efficient manufacturing method is thus provided by using a lasting machine.
