Abstract
An article of hosiery having a plurality of channels alternated with ridges, the channels have, at least in part, differentiated width.
Claims12
An article of hosiery, comprising:
- a plurality of channels with a ridge therebetween, wherein said channels have, at least in part, differentiated width;
- one or more portions with high fabric density;
- portions and/or a part with different fabric density;
- and
- at least one manifold,
- wherein in said one or more portions with high fabric density, the channels have a breadth comprised between 1 mm and 3 mm, and the ridges have a width comprised between 1 mm and 7 mm, and
- wherein said at least one manifold has an extension from an upper edge of the article. the manifold:
- for a first section, is equal to approximately half of a length of the extension, configured to be oriented predominantly in the direction of a Brannock axis,
- for a second section, is equal to approximately 0.15-0.35 times the length of the extension, following an inclined orientation up to a lateral edge of a fourth portion of a first zone,
- said first zone configured to correspond substantially to the surface of a sole of a foot, said fourth portion of said first zone configured to correspond substantially to the surface of the metatarsal heads of the foot of the user.

An article of hosiery, comprising:
- a plurality of channels alternated with ridges, wherein said channels have, at least in part, differentiated width;
- at least one manifold;
- one or more portions and/or a part with low fabric density;
- and
- portions and/or a part with different fabric density,
- wherein in at least one of the portions with low fabric density, said channels and said ridges have an extension upward having an inclination comprised between 50° and 80°, measured with respect to a resting plane of the article, and
- wherein said at least one manifold has an extension from an upper edge of the article, the manifold:
- for a first section, is equal to approximately half of a length of the extension, configured to be oriented predominantly in the direction of a Brannock axis,
- for a second section, is equal to approximately 0.15-0.35 times the length of the extension, following an inclined orientation up to a lateral edge of a fourth portion of a first zone,
- said first zone configured to correspond substantially to the surface of a sole of a foot, said fourth portion of said first zone configured to correspond substantially to the surface of the metatarsal heads of the foot of the user.
