Abstract
An elastomeric shoesole designed specifically for athletic activities wherein the sole contains at the outer side of the heel and/or the inner side of the ball transversely-extending, longitudinally-spaced openings which extend to approximately the longitudinal center line and wherein the respective opposite sides are substantially solid, thereby allowing the sole to yield at the outer side of the heel end to a greater extent than at the inner side and at the inner side of the ball to a greater extent than at the outer side.
