Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 17708:2003) which has been technically
revised.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 17708:2018(E)
Footwear — Test methods for whole shoe — Upper sole
adhesion
1 Scope
This document describes a test method for determining the resistance to separation of the upper from
the outsole, for separating adjacent layers of the outsole or for causing tear failure of the upper or the
sole. It also defines conditions of ageing that can be used for production control.
This document is applicable to all types of footwear (cementing, vulcanisation, injection moulding,
etc.) where the evaluation of sole adhesion on the upper is needed and where the upper is continuously
assembled (closed shoe).
NOTE 1 In all cases the objective is to test the bond strength nearest to the edge of the assembly.
NOTE 2 The test need not be carried out when the bond has been made by grindery (using, for example, nails
or screws) or stitching.
2 Normative references
