Probably a couple of layers rubbing against each other, you need to get some lubricant between the layers. How to get in there is your job to figure out, but sometimes the inner sole (where your foot stands on inside the shoe) can be removed and then you can access the sole and possibly get something into it. I would avoid using WD40.

Sometimes wet lube doesn't work. You should dose them generously with powdered graphite. . Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus

That's easy.

Everyone here knows the answer.

If WD40 doesn't fix the problem, then duct tape is the answer.

And don't forget... nothing says quality like wrinkle free duct tape!

Or glue. If the parts can't move they can't squeak either.
