Super nice Sam, and a smart move to use cage edit to control the shape and keep it easily understandable in grasshopper. Regarding the shape definition in cage edit (20minute mark), you're scaling of the points the get a sharper outsole edge is a good solution. Another way to do it is to change the control point weight (weight). You might also want to turn your Gumball on, this will make the moving/rotating/scaling easier.
Great easy to follow tutorial Sam, ill post my design I make with this on Instagram and tag you in it. It has really helped to expand my tool-set in footwear design.
I’m not 100% familiar with Rhino, but does t-splines work with this method? I know they removed t splines for Rhino 6, but the way you are deforming things is almost similar to SubD modeling, which would help tons of you could model like that rather then using a cage edit. I hear Rhino 7 might get a SubD.
