摘要:
An article of footwear incorporates a chamber (100) with an outer barrier (110) and a plurality of tether elements (120). Barrier (110) includes a first barrier portion (111), an opposite second barrier portion (112), and a sidewall barrier portion (113) that cooperate to define an interior cavity. Each of tether elements 120 are located within the interior cavity, are formed from a single element of a two-dimensional material, and have an first end area (121) attached to the first barrier portion (111), a second end area (122) attached to the second barrier portion (112), and a central portion (123) having a substantially planar first surface extending between the first end area and the second end area, the first surface being formed at a first angle relative to the first end area and at a second angle relative to the second end area.
摘要:
An article of footwear may have a sole structure and an upper that includes a foundation element, a tensile strand, and a securing strand. The tensile strand is located adjacent to an exterior surface of the foundation element and substantially parallel to the exterior surface for a distance of at least five centimeters. The securing strand joins or secures the tensile strand to the foundation element. Although the thicknesses may vary, a thickness of the tensile strand may be at least three times the thickness of the securing strand. In some configurations, a backing strand may also assist with joining the securing strand to the foundation element.
