An adaptive fluid system for an article of footwear is disclosed. The adaptive fluid system includes a fluid chamber that provides cushioning and shock absorption for a foot. The adaptive fluid system includes an adjustable pressure regulating valve that may be used to control the pressure of the fluid chamber. The adaptive fluid system includes a valve that prevents fluid from escaping from a fluid chamber during use.

1. A system for adaptive control of a footwear fluid system, comprising: an article of footwear, the article of footwear having a sole structure, an upper, a fluid chamber internally located within the article of footwear, an intake valve positioned on the article of footwear, and a fluid line providing fluid communication between the intake valve and the fluid chamber; anda pump located externally from the article of footwear, the pump including an adjustable pressure regulating valve, a pump body, and a connecting hose, the connecting hose having a connecting hose end configured for engagement with the intake valve;wherein the adjustable pressure regulating valve is located on the pump body and configured to have a user-selectable maximum pressure and to permit escape of fluid in response to a pressure level exceeding the maximum pressure; andwherein the adjustable pressure regulating valve comprises a ball and a spring arranged such that, upon pressure in the pump exceeding a pressure corresponding to the maximum pressure, the ball is movable to allow release of fluid. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the connecting hose end and the intake valve are configured for repeated non-destructive disengagement and re-engagement. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the intake valve is one of a Schrader valve, a Presta valve, or a Dunlop valve. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the fluid chamber is located in the sole structure. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the intake valve is positioned on the upper. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the fluid chamber is located in the sole structure. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the fluid chamber is located in the sole structure and the intake valve is positioned on the upper. 8. A method of adjusting fluid pressure in an article of footwear, comprising, selecting a maximum pressure of an adjustable pressure regulating valve of a pump, wherein the pump is located externally from the article of footwear,wherein the pump includes the adjustable pressure regulating valve comprising a ball and a spring, a pump body, and a connecting hose, andwherein the connecting hose has a connecting hose end configured for engagement with an intake valve located on the article of footwear;engaging the connecting hose end and the intake valve; andpumping fluid into a fluid chamber of the article of footwear by actuating the pump,wherein the fluid chamber is internally located within the article of footwear,wherein the article of footwear has a sole structure, an upper, and a fluid line providing fluid communication between the intake valve and the fluid chamber, andwherein fluid escapes from the pressure regulating valve as pressure within the pump rises above the selected maximum pressure during the pumping, wherein the fluid escapes by movement of the ball to allow release of fluid. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the fluid chamber is located in the sole structure and the intake valve is positioned on the upper.
