In FIGS. 1-42, the consistent-length broken lines depict unclaimed environmental structure as well as unclaimed portions of the footwear sole in FIGS. 11 and 22. The alternating-length broken lines seen in FIGS. 8-10, 19-21, 30-32 and 40-42 depict the boundaries of the claimed design. The broken lines and structures they depict form no part of the claimed design. The embodiments of the footwear sole show n in FIGS. 1-42 are for a left foot.
