Nike produced a 3D printed shoe that was made linear speed and found success with this process for their Flynit shoes. They involve sending a design file to one person and then placing the file in a knitting machine to make the shoe. As For Reebok, their Liquid Factory uses 3D printing to make intricate and visually stunning designs before the company debuted recyclable and unique footwear. Lastly, we see Under Armour turning to 3D printing for the next revolution in sneaker technology. They believe the flexibility of a training shoe will appeal to a wider variety of consumers who are looking for a shoe to take them from the weight bench to the treadmill and back. The future of footwear is about customization, and 3D printing allows for companies to produce personalized shoes rapidly with less expense. The technology makes footwear smarter and trendier, but it will be a while before we are all wearing 3D printed shoes.

Among the aspects of the partnership, Under Armour will utilized EOS’ 3D technology for printing, and the companies will work on polymer powder and on an advanced laser sintering platform. The goal of the partnership is to achieve Under Armour’s goal to industrialize and scale 3D printing performance footwear for consumers. The two companies features an Under Armour display showcasing US ArchiTech Futurist footwear, showing how they will combine their expertise to bring more innovation to the 3D printed shoe industry. Partnerships are a good idea in the 3D printing industry, especially with footwear. That’s why we at 3DShoes.com feature many innovators on our site.

Under Armour introduced us to their first partially made 3D training shoe, with a 3D printed lattice structure midsole. The launch of this shoe helped put the company ahead of the others in the race to create a 3D printed athletic shoe for consumers. New Balance announced recently that they planned to launch a limited edition 3D printed running shoe this month. Currently, Nike and Adidas are not included in this “competition.” Both of them, however, said that they do plan to produce customizable athletic shoes for consumers.

Under Armour is currently winning because they were the first to sell 3D printed athletic shoes to the public. But 3DShoes, Nike, New Balance, and other companies will catch up if they haven’t started to already. The possibility of customized 3D printed athletic shoes will continue to improve as 3D printing technology becomes more advanced. In less than a decade customers will be going to retail stores to have their feet scanned, or even be able to do it in their own home. Scans will be uploaded, and shoes will be 3D printed and shipped to the consumer.

The post 3D Printed Shoe “Race” appeared first on 3DSHOES.COM.

We are seeing customized midsoles becoming very common, thanks to smart technology and 3D printing. Technology is causing the trend of footwear to grow, especially innovations like 3D printing and self-lacing shoes. It is estimated that the market for wearables will reach $5 billion by the year 2020. For all we know we could see combinations of this technology. Self-lacing shoes combined with 3D Shoes made by 3DShoes.com, Nike, New Balance, Under Armour, etc. The possibilities in the future could be endless.

Consumer demand for wearable technology is growing, along with the option for customizable options. At the moment shoes are mostly produced as multiple parts, using molds and hydraulic presses, and then assembled together. But this method assumes that every foot is the same exact way. Consumers think that 3D printing is the answer to customized footwear. As of now 3D printing is cumbersome because the technology is new. But thanks to companies like 3DShoes we can keep an eye on how it evolves. Insoles are the only thing being made right now, but someday the shoes will be able to be completely 3D printed and sent right to our homes.

The post Self-Lacing Shoes Make The Future A Reality appeared first on 3DSHOES.COM.

This release will consist of 96 shoes to celebrate Under Armour’s 20^th anniversary, and the shoes will have 3D printed uppers and midsoles. However, you may want to save up if you hope to purchase a pair of these, as they will each be priced at $299.99 a pair. So why did AM spark their interest so much? Well the company stated that the lattice weave structure of the heel would be better to produce financially using 3D printing technology. Creating the same blend of support and cushion using a traditional molding would require that they invest in a great amount of new tools.

Additive manufacturing shows potential to make each shoe fit its owner practically perfectly. Shoes could be made to fit every angle and shape of customers by making a 3D scan of their foot. 3DShoes.com and other companies are already showing scanning technology for this. Not only will this provide more comfort than handmade shoes, but also it will help people with high arches, flat feel, and other podiatric problems. Under Armour plans to reveal addition 3D printed shoes later this year. They foresee a day in the future where every shoe is produced using a 3D printer.
