Embodiment Construction

[0008]Referring now to the drawings, a mold 10 contains a cavity 12 that defines the outer surface of the shell 30 of the footwear. A last 14 fits into the mold and has an outer surface that defines the inner surface of the shell 30. In the embodiment illustrated in the drawings, the mold 10 includes three pieces with a top piece 16 having a cavity that defines one side of the footwear, a bottom piece 18 having a cavity that defines the opposite side of the footwear, and a base 20 having a cavity that defines the outsole. The ends of the top and bottom pieces 16, 18 which are at the top of the footwear, are joined by means of a hinge 22, which allows the mold to be opened to insert the last. The base is releasably attached to the top and bottom pieces after they have been closed using conventional attachment mechanisms.

[0009]Before the last 14 is inserted into the mold 10, a liner 24 is placed on the last. The liner 24 substantially covers the entire last and preferably extends upwa...
