Shoe

A footwear upper and a sole structure for an article of footwear is provided. The footwear sole can include a forefoot region having a first bottom portion extending between a lateral side and a medial side of the footwear, a heel region having a second bottom portion extending between the lateral side and the medial side of the footwear, and a midfoot region disposed between the heel region and the forefoot region. The second bottom portion can be disposed along an inclined plane defined between the lateral side and the medial side, and the inclined plane rises from the medial side to the lateral side. The first bottom portion is disposed along a reference plane, and the inclined plane is disposed at an angle with respect to the reference plane.

Sole structure for an article of footwear

An article of footwear includes a sole structure coupled with an upper that defines a forefoot region, a midfoot region, and a heel region. The sole structure includes a plurality of pods that each have a pod body formed from a foam material that optionally has a coating disposed on an outer surface of the pod body. The sole structure includes a chassis attached to a bottom surface of each of the plurality of pods. The chassis includes a plurality of ground contacting regions and an elongated fork structure. The elongated fork structure includes a chassis stem, a first chassis leg, and a second chassis leg that each extend from the chassis stem through the heel region, the midfoot region, and the forefoot region of the sole structure. A continuous elongated groove is positioned between and extends along substantially the entire length of the first and second chassis leg.
