Varying eyelet spacing resolves uneven lacing tension, enhancing foot fit while preventing restricted flexion.
A single support arm extends between the sole structure and upper member to reinforce footwear.
Magnetic coupling secures tensioning cables in this footwear fastening system, eliminating manual lace tying.
Segmented tensile strands with varying cross-sections resolve the trade-off between structural complexity and adjustable support in footwear closure systems.
Looped tensile strands anchor near the midsole to form loops that engage laces, reducing upper stretching and improving structural integrity.
