The invention relates to a method for producing a shoe ( 1 ), comprising a shoe sole ( 2 ) and an upper ( 3 ). In order to provide an optimally fitting shoe in a simple manner, the method comprises the following steps according to the invention: a) providing a casting mould ( 4 ) for forming at least part of the shoe sole ( 2 ), the casting mould ( 4 ) having a bottom region ( 5 ), which lies vertically at the bottom, and having a side region ( 6 ), the side region ( 6 ) forming a side wall of the casting mould cavity ( 7 ) and initially being open in the end region lying vertically at the top; b) injecting a first liquid plastic material into a first surface section ( 8 ) of the bottom region ( 5 ) of the casting mould ( 4 ) and at least injecting a second liquid plastic material into a second surface section ( 9 ) of the bottom region ( 5 ) of the casting mould ( 4 ), the two plastic materials being different, the injection of the liquid plastic material being accomplished by means of at least one nozzle ( 10 ), by means of which the plastic material is sprayed in a free jet into the surface section ( 8, 9 ) in question; c) closing the casting mould ( 4 ) by means of a cover region ( 11 ) lying vertically at the top, which cover region ( 1 ) is placed onto the side region ( 6 ) of the casting mould ( 4 ), and allowing the plastic materials to harden; d) opening of the casting mould ( 4 ) and removing the produced moulded part.

An article of footwear includes a tubular knit upper and an outsole. Further, a thermoplastic polyurethane skin layer is disposed between the tubular knit upper and the outsole. The outsole comprises a plurality of regions intended to support and stabilize a foot of a user when the user sits in various sedentary positions.

A garment includes a substantially seamless base layer made from a compressive material, an outer layer positioned outward of at least a portion of the compressive material, and seam tape coupling the outer layer to the base layer. The outer layer is configured to cover less than an entire circumference of a wearer of the garment, and the base layer extends around at least a portion of the circumference not covered by the outer layer. For example, the base layer may not cover a wearer's lateral thigh region, minimizing the availability of non-taut material in that region that may be subject to easier grabbing or manipulation by an opponent.
