Abstract
A method for making a shoe sole includes step of preparing various types of foamable material; step of making the foamable material into particles; step of preparing a mold having a cavity in which the foamable material is being put; and step of foaming the foamable material in the cavity and obtaining a sole. The foamable material has different resilient coefficients but the same foaming rate so that the sole can be a made by a single foaming process and includes various resilient features.
