Zusammenfassung:An article of apparel comprises a base component (2020) having an outward-facing side and an inward-facing side; and a 3D-printed material (2030) that comprises a first external portion (2002) on the outward-facing side of the base component (2020), a first anchoring portion (2010) on the inward-facing side of the base component (2020), and a first connecting portion extending between the outward-facing side and the inward-facing side, the first connecting portion connecting the first external portion (2002) to the first anchoring portion (2010), the first connecting portion extending through a first opening (2032) in the base component (2020), wherein the first external portion (2002) is in contact with a first surface on the outward-facing side of the base component (2020) and the first anchoring portion (2010) is in contact with a second surface on the inward-facing side of the base component (2020) to restrict movement of the first external portion (2002) and the first anchoring portion (2010) relative to the base component (2020), and wherein the first external portion (2002), the first anchoring portion (2010), and the first connecting portion are integrally formed from the first 3D-printed material (2030).
