DEFORMED LENTICULAR MATERIAL GRAPHICS FOR AN ARTICLE OF FOOTWEAR UPPER

摘要

The present aspect is directed to lenticular material having both partially deformed lenticules and intact lenticules extending from a substrate. The intact lenticules operate to create an optical effect to enhance background graphical elements placed upon a substrate opposite the intact lenticules. The height of portions of some lenticules are reduced or deformed, thereby disrupting the optical effect. The placement of deformed portions of lenticules is used to create primary graphical elements lacking the optical effect. These primary graphical elements are accentuated by the neighboring intact lenticules, which retain the optical effect regarding the background graphical elements.
