Abstract: Ground-engaging components for articles of footwear include an upper-facing surface and a ground-facing surface opposite the upper-facing surface. At least the ground-facing surface may be formed to include a matrix structure, and this matrix structure may include a plurality of open cells (e.g., in a heel region and/or an arch region) and a forefoot region including a plurality of closed forefoot support cells. The ground-engaging component may be engaged with a midsole member (e.g., including a foam midsole element and/or one or more fluid-filled bladders), and this combination may form a sole structure that is engaged with an upper to form an article of footwear.

Abstract: Golf shoes having improved outsole constructions are provided. The golf shoes include upper, midsole, and outsole sections. The outsole includes a first set of arc pathways extending along the outsole in one direction. A second set of arc pathways extend along the outsole in a second direction. When the first and second arc pathways are superposed over each other, four-sided tile pieces are formed, and these tiles contain protruding traction members. In one embodiment, the tiles comprise a first protruding traction member, an opposing second protruding traction member, and a non-protruding segment disposed between the first and second traction members. Different traction zones containing different traction members are provided on the outsole. These zones provide improved multi-surface traction. In one embodiment of the outsole, there is no channeling and no trenching of the golf course turf. There is less damage to the golf course for a given amount of traction. In one embodiment, the tile pieces, first and second protruding traction members, and non-protruding segment comprise the same material and form a unitary piece. Preferably, the unitary piece is made of a rubber material. In another embodiment, a heel step region without traction members may be provided on the outsole. Additionally, spike receptacles and spikes may be provided on the outsole in addition to the traction members.

Abstract: A track and field shoe can include an upper, a sole structure, and a toe plate. The upper includes a medial side portion, a lateral side portion, and a toe box portion. The sole structure is attached to the upper and includes a spike plate. The spike plate has an anterior portion, a posterior portion, and a plurality of spikes. The spikes are configured for penetrating a track surface. The toe plate is attached to an anterior portion of the toe box portion of the upper. One or more portions of the toe plate are exposed from an exterior surface of the upper. The spikes are spaced apart from the toe plate such that the spikes disengage the track surface when the toe plate contacts the track surface.

Abstract: A method of forming a plate for an article of footwear is disclosed. The method includes applying a first strand portion to a base layer including positioning adjacent segments of the first strand portion to form a first layer on the base layer. The adjacent segments of the first strand portion having a greater density across a width of the plate between a medial side and a lateral side at a forefoot region of the plate than at a midfoot region of the plate and at a heel region of the plate. The method also includes applying at least one of heat and pressure to the first strand portion and to the base layer to conform the first strand portion and the base layer to a predetermined shape.

Abstract: An adaptor is connected to a bicycle shoe and includes an engaging portion and a base part. The engaging portion is formed on the first side of the base part, and protrudes from the first side of the base part so as to be connected to the underside of the bicycle shoe. A recess is defined in the second side of the base part and includes two first holes defined through its inner bottom. The two first holes are defined through the engaging portion. Two locking members extend through the two first holes and are connected to the bicycle shoe. A cleat is removably connected to the second side of the base part. The bicycle shoes with the cleat are used as mountain bike shoes, and used as road bike shoes by removing the cleats.
