The present invention relates to articles including expanded thermoplastic polyurethane as a substrate and a specific polyurethane urea coating on the substrate, as well as footwear, a method of manufacturing the article and a polyurethane urea solution use. It has been found that a polyurethaneurea coating comprising polycarbonate structural units strongly binds to the expanded TPU substrate and maintains the inherent properties of the expanded TPU. |
