The first outer region is at least partially disposed a first distance from a longitudinal axis and includes a first hardness. The second outer region is at least partially disposed a second distance from the longitudinal axis and includes a second hardness that is greater than the first hardness. The third outer region is at least partially disposed between the first outer region and the second outer region a third distance from the longitudinal axis and includes a third hardness that is greater than the first hardness and less than the second hardness. The second distance is greater than the first distance, and the third distance is greater than the first distance and less than the second distance.

Abstract: Presented are computing systems for regulating the custody and transfer of digital assets, methods for making/using such systems, and memory-stored, computer-readable instructions for provisioning such systems. A method for governing control of digital assets includes a host platform's server receiving, from a user's personal computing device, a request to transfer a cryptographic digital asset from a custodial wallet provisioned by a third-party wallet platform. In response, the host server receives, from the third-party wallet platform's server, an encrypted private key enabling access to the custodial wallet. The private key is decrypted and used to create an encrypted transfer request by generating a transfer request to transfer the cryptographic digital asset from the custodial wallet to a new digital wallet and encrypting the transfer request.

Abstract: An article of footwear includes a sole structure having a chassis, an outsole, and a cushioning element. The chassis extending from an anterior end to a posterior end and includes a dock formed between the anterior end and the posterior end. The outsole extends from a first end removably coupled to the anterior end of the chassis to a second end removably coupled to the posterior end of the chassis. The cushioning element is disposed between the chassis and the outsole and includes a first portion removably engaged with the dock of the chassis. The sole structure may include a carriage removably disposed between the chassis and the outsole adjacent to the cushioning element. The carriage includes an upper frame receiving and surrounding the dock and a lower frame receiving and surrounding a portion of the outsole.

Abstract: A method of 3D printing a garment can include 3D printing a first filament layer extending in a first direction, and 3D printing a second filament layer over the first filament layer. The second filament layer can extend in a second direction different than the first direction such that the first and second filament layers overlap one another at a plurality of contact points and collectively define a plurality of open cells.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for the collection and display of athletic information. Athletic data relating to a single person or group of people is collected at a central location, and subsequently displayed at a desired remote location so that the person or people can review and critique their performance. In addition, athletic data for multiple persons can be collected at a central location, and subsequently displayed to a user at a desired remote location, so that the user can compare his or her athletic activities to others.

Abstract: A sleeve cuff is provided for a sleeve including an anterior patch affixed to the sleeve and covering at least a portion of a cutout in the sleeve, a distal strap affixed to the sleeve and spanning over at least a portion of a cutout in the sleeve, and the distal strap overlapping at least a portion of the anterior patch to form an aperture for receiving a thumb therethrough. The sleeve cuff has a plurality of configurations, including at least a closed configuration where the aperture is closed and minimizes the wearer's exposure to wind and air elements therethrough, and an opened configuration where the aperture is opened and minimizes the air penetration around the received thumb.
