The present invention provides a composite shoe bottom that has a lower shaped support layer with a lower surface and an increased height around the periphery of the heel area and an irregular contoured upper stabilizing surface for the wearer\s foot; a shoe upper superimposed upon the upper surface of the lower layer; an upper cushioning layer of a material that is softer than the lower layer, the upper layer having a varying thickness which is pre-shaped to a contour complementary to the bottom surface of the wearer\s foot and having an increased height around the periphery of the heel area and in the arch area to form a raised arch support and to provide an irregular contoured upper stabilizing surface for the wearer\s foot; and means for forming an outsole secured to at least a portion of the lower surface of the lower support layer and comprising at least one strip of a wear resistant material which is positioned upon the lower layer in an area which will experience abrasion or shock.

A composite shoe having a toe area, arch area, and a heel area comprising: a lower shaped support layer having an upper surface, a lower surface, a greater relative thickness around the periphery of the heel area and in the arch area, and the upper surface having an irregular contoured upper stabilizing surface for the wearer\s foot; a shoe upper attached to the upper surface of the lower layer; an upper cushioning layer of a material which is softer than that of said lower layer and which is positioned above and in face-to-face relation with the lower layer, said upper cushioning layer having a varying thickness, a pre-shaped three-dimensional contour which is complementary to the bottom surface of the wearer\s foot, and said upper cushioning layer having an increased height around the periphery of the heel area and in the arch area, thus forming a cupped heel and a raised arch support with the three dimensional contour in the arch area having a side-to-side height profile that varies along an arcuate path from a relatively lower point on the lateral portion of the layer to a relatively higher point on the medial portion of the layer to form a raised arch support, wherein the upper cushioning layer has a smaller thickness around the periphery of its heel and arch area, thereby providing an irregular contoured upper stabilizing surface for cushioning the wearer\s foot; and an outsole secured to at least a portion of the lower surface of the lower support layer and comprising at least one strip of wear-resistant material.
