A student has printed ergonomic sneakers on a 3D printer.

Admit it, dreamed of running shoes that will be made exactly according to your foot? So that without any there “Damn, a little tight, but I separate” and so on?

Luc Fusaro, an engineer and designer from the Royal College of Art, has developed a prototype of sneakers that completely follow the contours of the foot. They weigh at the same time 96 grams.

The prototype was given the modest name "Created to win."

Luke used the Force SLS - a method of selective laser sintering. The material used is polyamide nylon powder, it is a very durable and lightweight material. First, the athlete's foot passes the 3D scanning procedure, and then using this data, a model is created that is ideally suited to a happy owner of the leg.

Fusaro states that he can also change the characteristics of sneakers. For example, if you change the stiffness of the sole, it will increase the shoe's efficiency by 3.5%, that is, it will be possible to run a hundred meters in 10 seconds, but reduce this time by 0.35 seconds!

Although, for me personally, for a long time, this thing is haunting me
