A method for manufacturing shoes is provided. The method includes preparing an
upper and an outsole, applying an adhesive agent to the outer surface of an upper
seal portion and the inner surface of an outsole seal portion, stitching together
the outer surface of the upper seal portion and inner surface of the outsole seal
portion, activating the adhesive agent by applying heat to the stitched seal portions,
and molding the upper and the outsole by using a molding machine. Therefore, since
the amount of the upper can be reduced and a separate insole is not necessary,
the total weight of the shoes can also be reduced. The flexibility of shoes can
also be enhanced.
