Embodiment Construction

[0021] In at least some examples, and as described in more detail herein, an article of footwear may include one or more interior yoke strap structures. These structures may include a network of straps that extend within the interior of the upper and may be fastened to conform to the wearer's foot. When fastened, these straps help contain the foot on the plantar platform of the sole structure and reduce excessive lateral movement of the wearer's foot relative to the footbed of the shoe.

[0022] The location of certain regions in a shoe and components of the shoe according to at least some embodiments will be described in conjunction with the anatomy of the human foot. Specifically, the various regions may be described using the bones of the foot of a person wearing a shoe that is properly sized for wearing the foot. A shoe may be considered "properly sized" if the outer edge of the wearer's foot fits within the interior of the upper's foot-receiving space according to common...

Abstract

An article of footwear may include one or more harnesses to restrain a wearer foot from transverse movement within an upper during a rapid sideways maneuver. One harness may be located in a lateral forefoot region. Another harness may be located in medial region and may include a midfoot and / or a hindfoot region.

Description

Background technique [0001] While performing various physical activities, and in the context of various non-athletic activities, a person can rapidly change motion to move in a lateral direction. For example, in basketball and various other sports, players may frequently change direction of movement by rapidly "cutting" to one side. In such a rapid lateral maneuver, the person may push on the outside of one foot (ie, the right foot on a left turn, the left foot on a right turn). The person can also (or alternatively) push against the inside of the other foot (ie, the left foot on a left turn, the right foot on a right turn). [0002] To avoid performance degradation and / or injury during activities involving rapid lateral maneuvers, shoes designed for such activities should limit unnecessary movement of the wearer's foot within the shoe. Traditionally, such restraint has been accomplished by tightening the shoelaces and / or external straps to tighten the upper. If the sole st...
