Abstract: A ventilated walking shoe comprising a mid-sole, under the upper. The mid-sole is constituted by a felt of natural fibers and is surmounted by a perforated insole made of leather or hide. The mid-sole is arranged within a perimetric edge for connecting the upper to the insole without requiring a toe lasting machine, the heel region and/or the front region and/or the central region contain, below the mid-sole, components made of a felt of natural fibers and covered with a membrane of microporous, transpiring and waterproof material and/or with perforated components made of leather or hide at openings of the edge of a box-like rubber sole that contains the entire assembly. The openings on the edge of the sole are closed all around by the edge so as to avoid interrupting its continuity.
