'One Shoe', one material, one person
Customizable and sustainable footwear 3D printed with Filaflex MMS structures
'One Shoe' is a project by Davide Amorim that creates a new concept of footwear by tackling two major problems, personalization and sustainability.
Essentially, people are all different. However, people with the same foot size, but with different body weight, or foot shape, often wear the same shoes.
By making use of Mechanical Meta-material structures (MMS), it is possible to create a sole that not only fits a person's foot's needs but also makes it easy to recycle.

"The end value of the project is to show, both people and industry, the benefits of what a personalized and mono-material shoe could have on our society, also from an ecological point of view".
