Abstract (en)

An article of footwear and a knitted component thereof are provided. The article of footwear includes a shoe upper and a sole structure fixed to the shoe upper. The shoe upper defines a shoe cavity for a foot to be inserted thereinto. The shoe upper is formed by the knitted component and includes a plurality of upper regions. The knitted component is a two-dimensional structure knitted from at least one yarn and includes a plurality of knitted regions respectively corresponding to the plurality of upper regions. Each of the plurality of upper regions has a stretch ratio to its corresponding knitted region of the plurality of knitted regions. The number of stitches in each of the plurality of knitted regions is proportional to its corresponding stretch ratio, so when the foot is inserted into the shoe cavity, courses and wales formed by the at least one yarn in the plurality of upper regions are substantially orthogonal.
