1. A method of manufacturing shoe sole material, which comprises:
- superposing a first sheet for a midsole layer on a second sheet for an outsole layer in a mold having a pattern formed on at least the mold surface in contact with said second sheet, said first sheet comprising a synthetic resin, a crosslinking agent and a foaming agent, said second sheet comprising a synthetic resin, a crosslinking agent and a foaming agent, said first and second sheets having different foamability ratios and being capable of being fused together under heat; and
hot-pressing said superposed first and second sheets in said mold to foam at least said first sheet and form crosslinkages in and between said first and second sheets to fuse said first and second sheets together.

Abstract
A method of manufacturing shoe sole material which is lightweight in addition to having such properties as the conventional rubber sole materials have like wear resistance and elasticity etc., in a simple manner by forming the outsole and midsole layers into one piece by fusion using a mold. The mold comprises mold pieces having on their surface optional pattern and protruding stripes of the same or different pattern carved at equal intervals, and permits a streamline-shaped heel-up on the rear end of the portions which are to become heels, at the same time as forming the midsole and outsole layers into one piece by fusion.
