Ground-engaging structures for articles of footwear

A pair of shoes, comprising:

• a first shoe, including a first upper and a first ground-engaging component engaged with the first upper, wherein the first ground-engaging component includes:
• (a) a first outer perimeter boundary rim that at least partially defines a first outer perimeter of the first ground-engaging component, wherein the first outer perimeter boundary rim defines a first upper-facing surface and a first ground-facing surface opposite the first upper-facing surface, and wherein the first outer perimeter boundary rim comprises a first exterior perimeter edge and a first interior perimeter edge, wherein the first interior perimeter edge defines a first open space extending completely through the first ground-engaging component at least at a forefoot support area of the first ground-engaging component, and
• (b) a lateral side forefoot edge support extending along and defining at least a portion of a lateral forefoot edge of the first ground-engaging component, wherein the lateral side forefoot edge support includes a bottom surface that slants in an outward and downward direction over a majority of a width of the bottom surface of the lateral side forefoot edge support from the first open space to the lateral forefoot edge, wherein the lateral forefoot edge is an outermost lateral forefoot side edge of the first ground-engaging component, wherein the lateral side forefoot edge support includes a plurality of lateral edge support components defining the outermost lateral forefoot side edge of the first ground-engaging component, wherein the plurality of lateral edge support components are defined by a plurality of gaps that are located in the bottom surface of the lateral side forefoot edge support, the plurality of gaps extending to the outermost lateral forefoot side edge such that the plurality of lateral edge support components and the plurality of gaps together define the outermost lateral forefoot side edge, wherein the first ground-engaging component defines a first longitudinal direction and a first longitudinal length L extending from a rear-most heel location of the first ground-engaging component to a forward-most toe location of the first ground-engaging component, wherein the lateral side forefoot edge support terminates at a first end between planes perpendicular to the first longitudinal direction and located at 0.9L and 1.0L measured forward from the rear-most heel location of the first ground-engaging component, and wherein the lateral side forefoot edge support terminates at a second end opposite the first end between planes perpendicular to the first longitudinal direction and located at 0.5L and 0.75L measured forward from the rear-most heel location of the first ground-engaging component;
• and
• a second shoe, including a second upper and a second ground-engaging component engaged with the second upper, wherein the second ground-engaging component includes:
• (a) a second outer perimeter boundary rim that at least partially defines a second outer perimeter of the second ground-engaging component, wherein the second outer perimeter boundary rim defines a second upper-facing surface and a second ground-facing surface opposite the second upper-facing surface, and wherein the second outer perimeter boundary rim comprises a second exterior perimeter edge and a second interior perimeter edge, wherein the second interior perimeter edge defines a second open space extending completely through the second ground-engaging component at least at a forefoot support area of the second ground-engaging component, and
• (b) a medial side forefoot edge support extending along and defining at least a portion of a medial forefoot edge of the second ground-engaging component, wherein the medial side forefoot edge support includes a bottom surface that slants in an outward and downward direction over a majority of a width of the bottom surface of the medial side forefoot edge support from the second open space to the medial forefoot edge, wherein the medial forefoot edge is an outermost medial forefoot side edge of the second ground-engaging component, wherein the medial side forefoot edge support includes a plurality of medial edge support components defining the outermost medial forefoot side edge of the second ground-engaging component, wherein the plurality of medial edge support components are defined by a plurality of gaps that are located in the bottom surface of the medial side forefoot edge support, the plurality of gaps extending to the outermost medial forefoot side edge such that the plurality of medial edge support components and the plurality of gaps together define the outermost medial forefoot side edge, wherein the second ground-engaging component defines a second longitudinal direction and a second longitudinal length L extending from a rear-most heel location of the second ground-engaging component to a forward-most toe location of the second ground-engaging component, wherein the medial side forefoot edge support terminates at a first end between planes perpendicular to the second longitudinal direction and located at 0.9L and 1.0L measured forward from the rear-most heel location of the second ground-engaging component, and wherein the medial side forefoot edge support terminates at a second end opposite the first end between planes perpendicular to the second longitudinal direction and located at 0.5L and 0.75L measured forward from the rear-most heel location of the second ground-engaging component.
