Customized 3D-Printed Shoes

Feetz Shoes Uses and App 3D Printing to Make Custom Shoes

Feetz shoes reject the one shoe size fits all mentality, and want to fuse fashion with technology to ensure everyone can find the perfect pair of shoes.

Looking for a specific pair of kicks to match an already planned outfit can be a difficult feat -- the colors aren't right, the sole is too slim, or your size isn't available. Feetz imagined a world in which shoes could be customized just as simply as your coffee order, and with the help of 3D printing technology, made that a reality.

Consumers are invited to download the Feetz app, and to take three photos of each foot, which will later be used to create a personalized mold. Users then select from a variety of colors, sizes, shapes and fits, creating a shoe that's as perfect and personal as their morning coffee.
