Athletic shoes with cushioning sole elements

摘要

Running shoe with an outer sole (1) which in a region of the front part of the foot comprises at least one sole element (6) that contributes to a reduced friction each time the shoe hits a surface when the running position is such that said element hits the surface first, said sole element (6) having the form of a material with limited surface friction against hard surfaces like asphalt, concrete and floors. The sole element can typically be made in a wear resistant synthetic material and is typically situated laterally under the front part of the foot.
