Before we talk about the difference, let’s look at the advantages of the two
Advantages of rubber sole: 1.Wear resistance; 2.Slip resistance; 3.Acid and alkali resistance.
Advantages of PU sole: 1.Wear resistance; 2.Good elasticity; 3.Non-slip; 4.Chemical resistance.
Difference: PU sole is softer than rubber sole, rubber sole is not oil resistant and air permeability is not as good as PU sole, while PU sole has strong water absorption and water resistance.
