SOLE STRUCTURE WITH TRACTION ELEMENTS

摘要

A sole structure for an article of footwear may include a frame member (5) having a continuous opening (15) with portions located in forefoot, midfoot and hindfoot regions. A plurality of primary traction elements (16) may extend outward from the frame member. A compressible midsole (4) may be bonded to upper surfaces of the frame member. A flexible support plate (20) may be bonded to the midsole. The flexible support plate may span substantially all of the frame member opening and have a lower surface exposed in at least a forefoot region. The support plate may be isolated from the frame member by the compressible midsole. A plurality of secondary traction elements (21) may be integral to and extend outward from the exposed lower surface of the support plate.
