Abstract
Aspects herein are directed to at least a first cable grouping extending over an outermost-facing surface of an upper between a biteline and a throat area of the upper. Each cable in the first cable grouping includes an egress point where the respective cable begins extending over the outermost-facing surface of the upper. A distance between the biteline and the egress points for at least two adjacent cables in the first cable grouping is different.

An article of footwear comprising:
- a sole structure;
- and
- an upper secured to the sole structure at a biteline, the upper having an outermost-facing surface and an opposite inner-facing surface, the upper comprising:
- a first cable grouping extending over the outermost-facing surface of the upper between an area adjacent the biteline and a throat area of the upper, each cable in the first cable grouping having a first end that corresponds to an egress point where the respective cable begins extending over the outermost-facing surface of the upper and a second end that corresponds to an ingress point where the respective cable no longer extends over the outermost-facing surface of the upper, wherein a distance between the biteline and a first egress point for a first cable in the first cable grouping is different from a distance between the biteline and a second egress point for a second cable in the first cable grouping.
