A NEW WAVE
OF CREATION
The structural innovation of foam midsoles has reached a plateau due to the lack of internal controllability inherent in traditional injection molding.
The capacity for advancement is dependent on
greater fluidity in construction.
The start of this project had aligned with the inception of the footwear industry's exploration of 3D-printed structures.
With additive manufacturing, the midsole can now be framed as a void to be filled with linkages of highly-variable structures.
