Abstract: A two piece shoe bottom construction including a platform structure and a heel structure. The platform structure has a forward toe support portion and a rear raised portion, the rear raised portion being elevated substantially above the toe portion so that it will correspond to a particular height of a heel portion. The heel structure has a heel portion and a downwardly inclined protruding tongue portion integrally formed with the upper front part of the heel portion. The protruding tongue portion has a concave shaped lower side. An alignment anchor is integrally formed with the protruding tongue portion and located at one end which is remote from the heel portion. The platform structure has a closed cavity which extends from the middle of the toe portion through the end of the rear raised portion.
