[0007] Preferably, the hollow polygonal component is a hexagonal structure.

[0008] Preferably, the support member is made by 3D printing.

[0009] Preferably, the frames on both sides of the lattice structure are tilted upwards.

[0010] Preferably, the supporting member is spliced ​​with the sole.

[0011] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the utility model arranges the supporting component at the arch part of the sole, and through the frame on the supporting component, the frame supports the two sides of the arch, which can effectively balance the inner and outer sides of the sole, prevent the inner and outer sides from being unbalanced due to uneven force, and thus better stabilize the sole and achieve anti-torsion performance. Moreover, through the lattice structure, it can not only reduce the weight more effectively, but also provide sufficient arch support. Through the holes in the lattice structure, it can also reduce sweat accumulation, improve wearing comfort, and improve practicality.
