摘要:
A fluid -filled chamber (240) for an article of footwear and a method for manufacturing the chamber are disclosed. The chamber may be incorporated into a sole structure (230) of the footwear and includes a central area and a plurality of lobes (242a-242f ) extending outward from the central area (241). The lobes are in fluid communication with the central area and are formed from a first surface (245), a second surface (246), and a sidewall (247). The sidewall joins with the first surface with the second surface to seal the fluid within the chamber, but no internal connections are generally utilized to join interior portions of the first surface with interior portions of the second surface. The fluid within the chamber may be air at a pressure that is approximately equal to an ambient pressure. The- first surface defines a protrusion (244a) extending outward from the cental area.
摘要:
An article of footwear includes an upper, a midsole beneath the upper, and an outsole beneath the midsole. The midsole includes a substantially U-shaped outer member defining a pair of forwardly extending arms spaced from one another and formed of a first material. An inner member is positioned between the arms of the outer member and is formed of a second material that is more resilient than the first material.
