Upper of footwear and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

There are provided a shoe upper and a method of manufacturing the shoe upper, in which a mesh part is not manufactured separately from the upper when the shoe upper is made, but the mesh part is formed simultaneously with the upper when fabric for the upper is woven, so that an additional operation of sewing or gluing the mesh part on or to the upper is not required. The mesh part may be formed simultaneously with the base part when the shoe upper is manufactured, so that an additional operation of attaching the base part to the mesh part by sewing or adhesion is not required, thus being capable of enhancing productivity, keeping quality consistent, and improving marketability.

         9 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 8 , wherein the colored weft of the base part placed on the mesh part is cut at both ends of the mesh part after the mesh part has been formed. 
     
     
         10 . A shoe upper, comprising:
 a base part formed by weaving weft and warp;   a mesh part formed by weaving weft and warp; and   a logo part provided under the mesh part which is an upper plate, the logo part being formed by weaving weft and warp,   wherein a portion of the weft of the base part is continuously connected to a portion of the weft of the mesh part, and a remaining portion of the weft of the base part is continuously connected to a portion of the weft of the logo part,   a portion of the warp of the base part is continuously connected to a portion of the warp of the mesh part, and a remaining portion of the warp of the mesh part is continuously connected to a portion of the warp of the logo part.   
     
     
         11 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 10 , wherein the mesh part and the logo part are simultaneously woven in such a way as to be separated from each other. 
     
     
         12 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 10 , wherein the mesh part is made by weaving transparent weft and transparent warp, and a logo of the logo part is made by weaving colored weft and colored warp. 
     
     
         13 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 10 , further comprising:
 a colored part,   wherein the colored part comprises an upper plate and a lower plate which are simultaneously woven in such a way as to be vertically separated from each other.   
     
     
         14 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 13 , wherein the upper plate of the colored part is formed by weaving colored weft and colored warp, weaving colored weft and transparent warp, or weaving transparent weft and colored warp. 
     
     
         15 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 13 , wherein the lower plate of the colored part is formed by weaving a portion of the weft and a portion of the warp which are not used to form the upper plate. 
     
     
         16 . The shoe upper as set forth in  claim 10 , wherein the weft of the base part comprises colored weft and transparent weft, and the warp of the base part comprises colored warp and transparent warp,
