Shoe cushioning is the process of bending a material (usually leather or rubber) placed on the sole of the shoe towards the front of the shoe. This process is done to increase the flexibility and comfort of the shoe, protect it against wear and provide an aesthetic appearance.
How is shoe mattress bending done?
For the shoe mattress curling process, firstly, a material suitable for the sole of the shoe should be selected. The material should be suitable for the colour and style of the shoe, durable and flexible. After the material is selected, it is glued to the sole of the shoe. A special adhesive can be used for gluing or the material can be sewn.
After the gluing or sewing process is completed, the excess parts of the material are cut off. During the cutting process, some excess material should be left on the front of the shoe. This excess will be the part that will be bent towards the toe of the shoe.
For the bending process, the excess material is heated and softened. An iron or hair dryer can be used for heating. The heated material is bent and shaped towards the toe of the shoe. The bent material is glued or sewn to the toe of the shoe.
Thus, the shoe mattress curling process is completed. Thanks to this process, your shoes will look both more comfortable and more stylish.
