ISO/TR 20880:2007 establishes the performance requirements for outsoles components for footwear (not for the finished footwear), irrespective of the material, in order to assess the suitability for the end use. It also establishes the test methods to be used to evaluate the compliance with the requirements.
This Technical Report applies to outsoles for various kinds of footwear.
ISO/TR 20880:2007 is intended to be used as a reference between the footwear manufacturer and the supplier. It is not intended for third party certification of finished shoes destined for the consumer.
