Compared with previous generations, the uppers of Owen's 9th generation shoes have also undergone some changes. Cancel the hook and loop tape and leather material, and feel soft. When using this material, it does not pull the crotch in terms of texture, but it still has some merits. For example, Owen's 9th-generation shoes feel very ok in hand. We reduced its weight to about 350g, which is relatively light in the whole Owen series.

9 Single-yarn uppers or monofilament uppers should be used, which are more and more in recent running shoes. In order to ensure the strength, the single-layer single-yarn vamp woven for lightweight is often similar in structure: a "Tian" (or other parallelogram) skeleton is used to support a slightly thicker high-strength monofilament, and then a slightly thinner monofilament is woven to fill the gap. But it also makes its air permeability not ideal. General sneaker brands will add some reinforcing structures (such as flocking skin) to mono yarn, and make up for the deficiency of heat dissipation plate by opening holes in these reinforcing structures.
