Abstract
A sole structure and shoes having the sole structure are provided which enable smooth cutting maneuvers or the like and stabilize a stacking state in the sole structure. An outsole has an elastic structure arranged between a base plate and a lower midsole portion in a thickness direction of a sole structure. The elastic structure includes a plurality of elastically deformable first columnar portions and at least one coupling portion for coupling the first columnar portions adjacent to each other. The elastic structure is configured such that the coupling portion couples second end portions of the first columnar portions adjacent to each other, and that the second end portions are connected, together with the coupling portion, to the lower midsole portion.
