Summary:An article of footwear includes an upper, a tensioning grip disposed at an outer surface of the upper, a tensioning cable, and a first conduit. The tensioning cable is coupled with the tensioning grip and operable to move the upper into one of a tightened state and a loosened state. The tensioning cable is movable in a tightening direction to move the upper into the tightened state and movable in a loosening direction to move the upper into the loosened state. The first conduit includes an inner diameter that is greater than an outer diameter of the tensioning cable and receives a portion of the tensioning cable therein. The first conduit is operable to accommodate bunching by the tensioning cable following movement of the tensioning cable in one of the tightening direction and the loosening direction.
