Abstract
A shoe includes: a sole made of an elastic material and including a planta support configured to support a plantar surface of a foot; an upper attached to the sole and configured to cover the foot; and a heel counter provided above the planta support, arranged in a heel area of the upper, and covering a region of the foot from a medial side portion to a lateral side portion. The heel counter includes, in a lower rear portion of the heel area, a notch (deformation allowance portion) which is configured to allow impact deformation caused by upward movement of a rear portion of the planta support when the sole receives impact.
