A Goodyear Welt Construction is superior to cement construction because it offers superior durability, better foot stability, and a longer lasting sole. The Goodyear Welt Construction process involves stitching the upper of the shoe directly to the sole using a leather or PVC welt. This creates a strong bond between the sole and the upper that can withstand more wear and tear than a cemented sole. Additionally, the welt construction offers better foot stability, as the stitch creates a more secure and comfortable fit for the wearer. Lastly, the Goodyear Welt Construction will last longer than a cemented sole, as it offers greater protection against water and other elements that can cause premature wear and tear.
