Abstract

The present invention relates to an article of orthopedic footwear comprising a sole. The sole comprises an outsole, an insole comprising a support layer for supporting the foot of a user, the support layer possibly comprising a rigid plate and having a lower surface. The sole further comprises a midsole having a compression portion positioned below the lower surface of the support layer, and a joint portion positioned on either the medial side or the lateral side of the lower surface of the support layer. The joint portion allows the support layer to pivot about the joint portion when subjected to a locomotion force such that the compression portion is compressed.
