An article of footwear including a cooling system is disclosed. The article of footwear includes a sole system. The sole system includes a first compression chamber and a second compression chamber, each configured to compress during motion. The compression of the first compression chamber and the second compression chamber creates a pressure imbalance that facilitates the exchange of air throughout the article of footwear by means of apertures disposed along the upper sole portion, and channels configured to transfer air to the apertures.

1. An article of footwear, comprising: an upper;an upper sole portion including an upper sole portion body and a projecting portion, the upper sole portion body having a top side configured to be disposed proximate to a wearer's foot when inserted within the article of footwear and the upper sole portion body having a bottom side disposed opposite the top side, wherein the projecting portion extends outward from the bottom side of the upper sole portion body;the upper sole portion including at least one aperture extending through the upper sole portion from the bottom side to the top side;a lower sole portion including a first side configured to contact the bottom side of the upper sole portion body and a second side configured to contact a ground surface;the lower sole portion including a hole, the hole configured to extend through the lower sole portion from the first side to the second side and is further configured to receive the projecting portion of the upper sole portion;a compression chamber defined by a lower surface of the projecting portion, at least one wall of the hole extending through the lower sole portion, and a ground surface;the compression chamber having a first volume, the first volume being associated with a first distance between the lower surface of the projecting portion and a ground surface;wherein the compression chamber has a second volume after being compressed, the second volume being associated with a second distance between the lower surface of the projecting portion and a ground surface;wherein the change in the compression chamber from the first volume to the second volume forces air through the at least one aperture; andwherein the lower sole portion includes at least one channel in fluid communication with the compression chamber. 2. The article of footwear according to claim 1, wherein the first distance is larger than the second distance. 3. The article of footwear according to claim 1, wherein the change in the compression chamber from the second volume to the first volume pulls air through the at least one aperture. 4. The article of footwear according to claim 1, wherein the channel is a groove formed into the first side of the lower sole portion. 5. The article of footwear according to claim 1, wherein the channel corresponds to the aperture. 6. An article of footwear, comprising: an upper;an upper sole portion including an upper sole portion body and at least one projecting portion, the upper sole portion body having a first side and a second side, the second side disposed opposite of the first side;the first side of the upper sole portion body being configured to be disposed proximate to an underside of a foot when inserted within the article of footwear and the second side of the upper sole portion including the at least one projecting portion extending away from the second side of the upper sole portion body;the upper sole portion body including a first aperture;a lower sole portion including a first side configured to contact the second side of the upper sole portion body and a second side configured to contact a ground surface;the lower sole portion including a hole extending through the lower sole portion from the first side to the second side and configured to receive the projecting portion;a channel disposed between the second side of the upper sole portion body and the first side of the lower sole portion;wherein the channel is in fluid communication with the hole and the first aperture;wherein the at least one projecting portion includes a first surface disposed proximate the second side of the upper sole portion body and a second surface disposed opposite of the first surface, the second surface including at least one tread element; andwherein the first surface of the projecting portion includes an air distribution system, the air distribution system comprising at least one air distribution channel disposed in the first surface. 7. The article of footwear according to claim 6, wherein the channel corresponds to the first aperture. 8. The article of footwear according to claim 6, wherein the upper sole portion body includes a second aperture; and wherein the at least one air distribution channel of the air distribution system is in fluid communication with the second aperture. 9. The article of footwear according to claim 6, wherein the air distribution system further includes at least one air inlet portion; and wherein the at least one air distribution channel is in fluid communication with the at least one air inlet portion. 10. The article of footwear according to claim 9, wherein the at least one air distribution channel is configured to coincide with the channel disposed between the second side of the upper sole portion body and the first side of the lower sole portion. 11. The article of footwear according to claim 6, wherein the channel is a groove formed into the first side of the lower sole portion. 12. The article of footwear according to claim 6, wherein the air distribution system includes a first set of air distribution channels that are oriented longitudinally along the first surface and a second set of air distribution channels that are oriented laterally along the first surface. 13. An article of footwear, comprising: an upper and an upper sole portion, the upper sole portion having a first side configured to be disposed proximate to a bottom of a foot inserted within the article of footwear and a second side disposed opposite the first side;the upper sole portion including a first projecting portion, the first projecting portion disposed on the second side of the upper sole portion and extending outwards from the second side;a hole disposed through a lower sole portion configured to receive the first projecting portion of the upper sole portion, the hole configured to extend through the lower sole portion from a first side to a second side;the lower sole portion including an outer surface on the first side and an inner surface on the second side, the inner surface configured to contact the second side of the upper sole portion;wherein the first projecting portion sits within the hole and is configured to move within the hole so as to approach the outer surface of the lower sole portion when a predetermined force is applied to the upper sole portion;wherein the first projecting portion includes a first surface disposed proximate the second side of the upper sole portion and a second surface disposed opposite of the first surface, the second surface including at least one tread element; andwherein the first surface of the projecting portion includes an air distribution system, the air distribution system comprising at least one air distribution channel disposed in the first surface. 14. The article of footwear according to claim 13, wherein the predetermined force is applied by means of a wearer stepping down with an article of footwear. 15. The article of footwear according to claim 13, wherein the first projecting portion of the upper sole portion recedes from the outer surface of the lower sole portion once a predetermined force has been applied and then released. 16.
