For <strong>running shoes<\/strong>, for example, these soles tend to have a <strong>flat surface<\/strong> and strong cushioning and. The soles of <strong>basketball shoes<\/strong>, on the other hand, are usually <strong>thicker <\/strong>and offer better <strong>grip<\/strong>, while the soles of <strong>hiking shoes <\/strong>are often made of sturdy <strong>rubber <\/strong>for durability and traction on <strong>rough terrain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Soles of work shoes<\/strong>. These soles should provide extreme safety and increased grip and <strong>wear resistance<\/strong>. They can be made of<strong> <\/strong>thick rubber with deep grooves for better traction<strong> <\/strong>on <strong>wet or slippery surfaces<\/strong>.
