[0030] introduction

[0031] The following discussion and accompanying figures disclose an article of footwear having an upper with embroidered structures. Additionally, various methods of manufacturing the upper are disclosed. Uppers and methods are disclosed with reference to footwear having a structure suitable for running, especially sprinting. However, concepts related to uppers are not limited to footwear designed for running, but can be applied to a wide range of athletic shoe styles including, for example, baseball shoes, basketball shoes, multipurpose training shoes, cycling shoes, soccer shoes, tennis shoes, Rugby shoes, walking shoes and hiking boots. The concept can also be applied to footwear styles generally considered non-athletic, including dress shoes, loafers, sandals, and work boots. Accordingly, the concepts disclosed herein are applicable to a variety of footwear styles. Additionally, the concepts disclosed herein may be applied to products other than ...

Abstract

A composite element includes a base layer, a thermoplastic polymer material, a thread, and a cover layer. The base layer has a first surface and an opposite second surface. The polymer material is separate from the base layer, extends into the base layer, and is at least partially located at the first surface. The thread has a section lying adjacent to the first surface layer and substantially parallel to the first surface throughout a distance of at least five centimeters, and the thread is bonded to the base layer with the polymer material. The cover layer is located adjacent to the first surface and bonded to the base layer with the polymer material, and the section of the thread is located between the cover layer and the base layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a composite component and an article of footwear incorporating the composite component. Background technique [0002] Conventional articles of footwear generally include two primary components, an upper and a sole structure. The upper is secured to the sole structure and forms a cavity inside the footwear for comfortably and securely receiving the foot. The sole structure is secured to a lower surface of the upper for interposition between the upper and the ground. For example, in some articles of athletic footwear, the sole structure may include a midsole and an outsole. The midsole may be formed from a polymer foam material that attenuates ground reaction forces to relieve pressure on the foot and leg during walking, running, and other ambulatory movements. The outsole is secured to the lower surface of the midsole and forms the ground-contacting portion of the sole structure formed from a durable and wea...
