The way shoes are manufactured has changed dramatically, with shoe designs improving to better match how we move and feel. 3D printing has taken modern footwear to the next level, enabling custom-fit shoes that standard manufacturing methods could never achieve. Thanks to advanced printing techniques, these shoes offer lightweight strength, optimized cushioning, and improved breathability, all while reducing material waste. Enter Fitasy, a footwear brand that’s looking to make 3D-printed footwear accessible to everyone with its new Fitasy Stride Sneakers.
The Fitasy Stride are 3D-printed sneakers that are custom-designed based on a virtual scan of your feet using your smartphone, ensuring they fit you perfectly. The sneakers are made from premium polyurethane and feature a proprietary three-layer lattice cushioning design, which delivers lightweight support, responsive shock absorption, and all-day comfort. They also feature a non-slip tread printed sole that offers enhanced traction and stability, plus built-in 360° airflow to keep you cool.

Engineered to deliver true comfort and support, these 3D-printed sneakers help your body move more naturally and recover faster. They empower people of all ages, abilities, and activity levels to move better and feel better.
In this article, we talk more about the process behind creating these 3D-printed sneakers and the innovative features they offer.
DESIGN
Starting with how these 3D-printed sneakers are designed to custom-fit each person, each pair is created based on a precise 360º foot scan that’s taken with a smartphone in two positions: relaxed (foot in a natural position) and load-bearing (foot under load).
These two data points are analyzed by a system that combines artificial intelligence with advanced spatial modelling, generating a precise 3D virtual representation of your foot. Using this data, a smart algorithm automatically creates the design for each pair of Fitasy Stride sneakers, perfectly adjusting them to match each person’s feet down to the millimeter.

When it comes to the type of material used, these 3D-printed sneakers are printed from high-quality polyurethane. This choice of material makes the sneakers fully recyclable, ensuring a lower carbon footprint in comparison to standard sneakers.
Plus, it also makes the sneakers ultra-lightweight, which makes them comfortable to wear and allows for unrestricted movement.
The Fitasy Stride also feature a proprietary 3Dmetric triple-layer lattice cushioning design, which helps each pair adapt to your feet. Their special honeycomb-shaped design provides lightweight support, absorbing shock and reducing impact with every step. This ensures all-day comfort for everyday wear, workouts, and post-workout recovery alike.

Additionally, these 3D-printed sneakers also feature a non-slip tread printed sole, which offers enhanced traction and stability on all terrains. Thanks to that, the Stride improves rest and relaxation not only for your feet, but also joints, back, and hips.
