METHODS OF GENERATING MYCELIUM MATERIALS WITH IMPROVED PROPERTIES

Provided herein are compositions of mycelium material, and methods for production thereof. Also provided herein are articles of footwear includes an upper, a lasting board affixed with the upper to define an interior foot-receiving cavity therewith, and an outsole coupled with the upper opposite the lasting board. The upper includes at least a portion of a mycelium material that includes one or more proteins derived from an organism other than mycelium. 1. A method , comprising:a. generating a cultivated mycelium material;b. contacting the cultivated mycelium material with a solution comprising one or more proteins to produce a composition comprising the cultivated mycelium material and one or more proteins, wherein the one or more proteins are from a species other than a fungal species from which the cultivated mycelium material is generated; andc. pressing the cultivated mycelium material.2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the contacting comprises submerging the cultivated mycelium material in the solution.3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the contacting comprises contacting the cultivated mycelium material with the solution in a single step.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the contacting comprises contacting the cultivated mycelium material with the solution in one or more steps.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more proteins are from a plant source.6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the plant source is a pea plant.7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the plant source is a soybean plant.8. The method of claim 1 , the solution comprises a dye.9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the composition is colored with the dye to produce a color claim 8 , and the color of the cultivated mycelium material is substantially uniform on one or more surfaces of the cultivated mycelium material.10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the dye is penetrated throughout the interior of the composition.11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the dye is selected from the group ...
