Textiles are part of the shoes on the uppers (lining, body, shoelaces and other closures), soles (footbed, Strobel layer). The shoes are also reinforced with fibres like Kevlar and breathable waterproof laminates depending upon the end use. Three different kinds of fabrics, knitted, woven and non-woven are used for sports shoes. The fibres used for such fabrics are polyester, polyester-viscose, cotton and nylon. The sandwiched mesh also is known as high-tech three-dimensional fabrics Consisting of microfilaments sandwiched between two layers of meshes is also used as an alternative to foam laminated fabrics. Polyester, polypropylene, nylon and cotton are used for sport-tech. However, the predominant use is that of polyester since it is cheap. Nylon issued for the premium range of shoes. Cotton is used predominantly in canvas shoes and children shoes.
Materials used in sports footwear as an upper, liner and in the sole should have protective properties. Materials have thermal regulation and thermal comfort properties as air permeability, heat transfer, moisture transfer, water vapour permeability to maintain the microclimate condition in the inside of the shoes. In biomechanics of feet, most sports make more immediate mechanical demands of their athletes' footwear. Force, mass, and acceleration are the names of these demands. So, Materials should have physical properties like tear strength, breaking strength, tensile strength so that materials withstand exerted force by players.
