Sole - laying. - In a sole laying press, an intermediate pressure member is used, of bridge-shaped formation, longitudinally adjustable upon the front part of the pressure arm of the press, and pressing upon the last on both sides of its weakest portion. In one form, Fig. 1, a pressure member a rests upon a last b with supporting feet a<2>, a<3>, Fig. 2, at the rear pivoted to a forward support a'. A bolt d, Fig. 1, transmits pressure through a ball-and-socket joint c, as shown. The bolt d is screwed by a finger piece h into a member e longitudinally adjustable on an arm f of the press. In a modification, the ball-and-socket joint is replaced by a pivot. In another modification, Fig. 4, a member a has rounded feet a<4>, a<5> to engage the last. One or both feet may have short spikes a<6> to position them on the last
