ABSTRACT:
An article of footwear and a method of making it wherein a woven region is integrated with a lacing system. The woven region preferably is located in the forefoot/vamp region of the upper. The woven area may be formed by a diagonal weave or an alternative suitable weave. Lacing components extend from the woven region and are used in a lacing system. The lacing system further includes a pair of series of lace holding elements, such as eyelets or lace loops, on opposing sides of the upper. The lacing components are routed through the lace holding elements and may be adjusted to affect the fit of the upper to the user's foot.
