PVC sole or rubber，which is better?

PVC soles and rubber soles have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the applicable shoes are also different. PVC soles are good for fashion shoes, and rubber soles are good for sports shoes.

Pvc material has adjustable physical properties and is easy to form. The PVC soles, which are heavier than the major ones, have poor softness, so they are cheap. The price determines the quality of the sole. The proportion of pvc sole is small, the shoe material is light, the elasticity is good, the color is easy, the permeability is good, and the strength is high. PVC is often used in leather shoes, children's sports shoes and fashion shoes.

Rubber sole is a kind of polymer compound, which can be divided into natural and synthetic rubber. Common rubber soles have soft feel, good elasticity, good wear resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and are widely used on various sports soles. The rubber sole has the disadvantages of heavy shoe material, easy to spit frost, and high price.

Common sole materials

Rubber: It is divided into natural and synthetic, which is wear-resistant, elastic, heavy and costly.

TPR (T heat, P plastic, R rubber): It has rubber properties, is relatively wear-resistant, and has low cost, but it will slip when contacting with oil solvents.

PU: It has excellent wear resistance and repeated bending performance, good tear resistance and elasticity, and excellent oil, acid, alkali and low temperature resistance.

PVC: synthetic resin, medium resistant sole, less used due to ecological and environmental problems, commonly used for air cushion shoes and football shoes.
