During running, heat production in the footwear can be responsible for various pathologies such as phlyctenes. The sole that interposes between the foot and the shoe seems to be decisive. The comparison of the temperature recorded inside the footwear equipped with two different soles (ortholeage sole with an EVA coating and latex sole) out of 16 participants during a 10-km-race shows, on the one hand, that the temperature may rise up to six degrees and then holds steady at kilometre 6, and, on the other hand, that there are no differences between the two soles. These results can comfort professionals in the choice of EVA recovery.
