Abstract: The invention relates to a shoe characterised in that it comprises a bent, relatively rigid holding piece (1) having an upper part (11) which comes over the top of the foot (2), a central part (12) connecting the upper part (11) to the sole (3), and a lower part (13) fixed in the sole (3), the rigidity of the holding part (1) being sufficient to hold the sole (3) beneath the foot (2) when the foot is raised, with only one fixing point on the sole (3).
