An article of footwear includes a strobel that has a polymeric bladder defining an interior cavity and configured to retain a fluid in the interior cavity. The polymeric bladder has a peripheral flange extending around at least a portion of a perimeter of the interior cavity. A tensile component is disposed in the interior cavity and is secured to opposing inner surfaces of the polymeric bladder. The peripheral flange defines a groove extending along the peripheral flange. The strobel also includes a lasting component configured to extend along the peripheral flange around the at least a portion of the perimeter of the interior cavity. The lasting component is secured to the peripheral flange. A method of manufacturing footwear that includes the strobel is disclosed.

A sole structure including an outsole and a midsole disposed over the outsole. The outsole includes an outsole plate and a plurality of traction elements molded to the outsole plate. Each of the plurality of traction elements includes a plurality of overhangs. Each of the plurality of overhangs is cantilevered from the outsole plate. The midsole includes a plurality of discrete pods. Each of the plurality of discrete pods includes a midsole fluid-filled bladder. The midsole fluid-filled bladder defines an interior cavity and includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a plurality of midsole tethers interconnecting the first polymeric layer and the second polymeric layer. Each of the plurality of midsole tethers is disposed in the interior cavity of the midsole fluid-filled bladder. Each of the plurality of discrete pods is disposed over and aligned with one of the plurality of traction elements.

A strobel for an article of footwear comprises a polymeric bladder that defines an interior cavity. The polymeric bladder is configured to retain a fluid in the interior cavity. The polymeric bladder has a peripheral flange extending around at least a portion of a perimeter of the interior cavity. The peripheral flange defines a groove extending along the peripheral flange. The polymeric bladder may include a first polymeric sheet bonded to a second polymeric sheet at the peripheral flange and joined to the second polymeric sheet at a plurality of interior welds. Methods of manufacturing a strobel and manufacturing footwear are included.

A strobel for an article of footwear may include a casing having a peripheral flange and defining a cavity. The strobel may also include at least one cushioning member disposed in the cavity. An exterior surface of the casing facing away from the cavity may be a foot contact surface of the strobel and the peripheral flange may be configured for connection to a lower perimeter of a footwear upper of an article of footwear. A method of manufacturing an article of footwear includes securing a peripheral flange of the casing to a lower perimeter of an upper, the upper and the strobel defining a foot-receiving void of the article of footwear, the strobel having at least one cushioning member.

An insole having a soft, resiliently compressible cushioning urethane foam body shaped to be placed inside footwear and to lie be beneath the length and width of the user's foot; the forefoot portion having a forefoot oblong or circular domed pad which is positioned to be under an MTP-1 joint of a user to elevate and cushion the MTP-1 joint of the user by 2 mm to 4 mm thereby supinating the user's foot towards an lateral outer side of the insole. A continuous flexible and minimally compressible support shell attached to the foam body extending from along the perimeter of the insole from the medial edge of the insole from the forefoot pad back to the lateral edge of the rearfoot portion to cradle the heel. The support shell is configured to help stabilize and correct the user's foot position to more properly align the user's kneecap to reduce knee pain.
