Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016142737A1] The invention is a footwear item (1 ) comprising a sole (2) and an upper (3) in turn comprising a fabric element (4) created as a single piece through a weaving process and successively folded on itself along the direction defined by its longitudinal axis (X). The fabric element (4) defines at least three areas (51, 52, 53) adjacent to one another along said longitudinal axis (X) and features, at the level of joining sections (61, 62) between the three areas (51, 52, 53), a type of stitch pattern according to which the stitches located at the centre (7) are tucked with respect to the lateral stitches (8) in such a way as to give the fabric element (4) a three-dimensional shape with substantially parabolic outline according to the direction defined by its longitudinal axis (X). The footwear item furthermore comprises, inside the space defined by the upper (3), rigid or semi-rigid elements (9) configured in such a way as to maintain the shape of the footwear item (1 ) at least at the level of the tip and the heel.
