Explore outsole constructions used for canvas and vulcanised-style shoe projects. Confirm rubber compound, tread geometry, foxing compatibility and the specified assembly method.

Custom Shoe Soles and OEM Development

OEM sole projects begin with a drawing, existing sample or target shoe-last dimensions. Solekivo reviews whether an existing mould can be used or a new mould needs to be developed. Material, sizing, tread design, logo marking and approved sample requirements are discussed before tooling and production terms are agreed.

Drawings and Moulds

Review technical drawings, physical references, sole profile and tooling requirements before quotation.

Material and Hardness

Compare rubber, EVA, TPR, TPU, PU or other applicable compounds by application and production route.

Tread and Branding

Specify outsole texture, colour, logo embossing or debossing, and any mould limitations.

Development Samples

Confirm dimensional fit, appearance and construction on a reviewed sample before bulk release.

Shoe Sole Materials and Construction

Material choice depends on the sole location, footwear design and performance requirement. Rubber is often selected for outsole tread; EVA may suit lightweight moulded units; thermoplastic compounds and PU constructions have different process and design considerations. A technical specification is agreed by product rather than assuming one compound suits all styles.

Rubber Outsoles

Discuss tread geometry, compound hardness, wear and flex requirements for the intended application.

EVA Sole Units

Review weight, density, cushioning profile, thickness and dimensional consistency.

TPR / TPU

Review moulding compatibility, surface finish, resilience and suitable outsole construction.

PU and Composites

Confirm material system, bonding or assembly requirements and application-specific limits.

Shoe Sole Manufacturing and Factory Processes

Sole production depends on the chosen compound, design and mould. Typical manufacturing activities include raw material preparation, mould setup, applicable injection or compression moulding, trimming, finishing, in-process checks and packing. The responsible equipment and production route are confirmed for each approved style.

Material Preparation

Verify materials, colour batches and formulation requirements against the approved specification.

Moulding and Forming

Review mould preparation and the appropriate moulding process for the material and shoe sole structure.

Trimming and Finishing

Remove excess material, inspect sole edges and confirm tread and surface appearance.

Packing and Dispatch

Sort by style, size and colour; verify carton marks and prepare documented export packing.

Quality Checks for Shoe Soles and Outsoles

Quality requirements should be set against the approved sample and purchase specification. Depending on the material and intended use, inspection can address dimensions, appearance, hardness, flex resistance, abrasion or adhesion. Test methods, thresholds and any third-party testing must be agreed separately; not all tests apply to every style.

Fit and Dimensions

Check sole length, width, thickness, shape and the agreed tolerances.

Appearance and Hardness

Review moulding marks, edge finish, colour variation and relevant hardness measurements.

Performance Testing

Agree applicable abrasion, flex, slip or bonding tests and document the requested method.

Final Lot and Carton Checks

Verify inspected lot, size ratio, quantities, packaging and carton identification.

Factory and Product Evidence for Overseas Buyers

Solekivo Shoes Soles is based in Xinxiang, Henan, China and has operated since 2010. For a specific project, buyers should review the actual sole samples, applicable materials, production route, inspection scope and order documentation. Detailed factory capacity, certification and equipment claims should be supported by current records rather than generic assurances.
