The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of an orthopedic sort in shoes, in the case of which the top-part is provided along its borders with a continuous cut-out section, so that for the final form-imparting processes of the orthopedic support, merely a border-part and a bottom-part have to be subjected to the grinding operations. This ensures that, also after longer usage, the orthopedic support shows a stability of form, since a material thickness of only a small order of magnitude has to be subjected to the grinding operations, and in that consequently, the border-sections in the upper region of the orthopedic support, retain their retractility.
Orthopaedic insole with a top cover and a bottom cover, which covers enclose a support core, the top cover and the bottom cover projecting beyond the support core via an edge area and being connected to each other in the edge area. Both the top cover and bottom cover and also the support core are made of a thermoplastic material, the melting points of the three component parts of the insole, namely support core, top cover, and bottom cover, having approximately the same value, and these component parts being permanently connected to one another by pressing and shaping, with melting-on of the contiguous surfaces.
A footbed for sport footwear made of a shell, which defines the general shape of the footwear. The footbed has a sole portion and a padding wall for partially separating the sides and back of a wearer's foot from the shell. The padding wall partially cups the wearer's heel and extending from the back of the wearer's foot along each side of the heel, along each side of the midfoot and along each side of the forefoot. The footbed is adapted for determining the size of the footwear in terms of width. The footbed may further comprise a toe wall portion for determining the size of the footwear in terms of length.

An orthotic footplate including at least two superimposed, discrete structural layers having different lengths that extend along at least a segment of a length of the footplate. The footplate defines regions with different thicknesses and stiffness.
