“…In the array of patient-specific medical care products, AM of complete orthopedic shoes is not yet possible, but examples of AM-produced shoe elements exist, including insoles [40,41] and orthotics [42]. A high-quality digital design is imperative for orthopedic shoes and includes the (3D) geometrical data (foot geometry) and the functional data-for instance, modeling of movement and the kind of support needed [43]. Related to this, Veltink et al [44] described the measuring of movements, and Dong et al [45] reported cases where single material lattice geometry has been simulated using the finite element method and verified with experimental testing for the 3D printing of soles.…”

Background: Additive manufacturing (AM) for patient-specific medical care products offers great opportunities. However, evidence about the supply chain (SC) performance impact based on empirical data is limited. Methods: In this case study, we gathered real-life data about a traditional manufacturing orthopedic shoe SC and developed future scenarios in which AM is introduced at various points and with different degrees of penetration in the SC. Results: Presently, AM can only replace traditional manufacturing of tools and shoe components at a higher total cost. However, with maturing technology, the complete AM production of orthopedic shoes is expected to become feasible. Theoretically, that could disrupt existing SCs, eliminating 70% of the SC steps, improving SC lead time by 90%, and altering SC relations. However, certain thresholds currently prevent disruption. Specifically, the AM of complete orthopedic shoes has to become possible, manufacturing prices have to drop, and traditional craftsmanship has to be integrated into the digital product design. Conclusions: A framework for transition pathways, including directions for future research, is formed. Findings provide valuable insights for scholars and decision makers in the patient-specific products industry, health insurance providers, and healthcare policy makers to be better prepared by adjusting SC designs, relationships, and remuneration programs while AM technology develops towards maturity.

“…While users are essential for an ultra-personalized product creation, their roles and experiences in the process are rarely discussed and mainly concerned with collecting user data. Thus, work [9,11,16,19] describing body scanning application for product personalization are mainly focusing on user's body geometry extraction.…”

“…Results taken from finite element simulations of insole and midsolelayers made from various foam materials as the case of sport shoes optimize the distribution of the elastic modulus in the midsole to improve operability [12] aiming to reduce the Ground Reaction Forces [13]. Moreover, these applications help in controllingsole properties by using lattice structures [14] and through the combination of mechanical meta-material structures to create personalized soles [15] and shoes by 3D printing [16]. Lattice structures are generated by some CAD software's, butthey may present difficulties in the operationalization of the design process.…”

Advanced technologies for modelling and production are an important part in the whole process of product manufacturing. These advancements have changed the way of product development and play an important role in customization. In the footwear industry, as in any other industry, the use of these technologies is widely spread. Footwear comfort is one of the main selection criteria for purchase. Considering this fact, a case study of different steps for shoe designing according to individual foot shape will be presented. Taking into consideration the aesthetics of the sole and in a more sustainable view, through topological optimization reducing of material wastage for sole production will be presented. By means of the topological optimization in the shoe design process, sole optimization is realized. As a part of personalization, feet’s plantar pressure maps taken from 1 participant gave a better explanation of weight distribution of each foot. Following, sole personalization according the plantar pressure maps for each foot gives the possibility to obtain the best least material design according to the feet’s pressure while maintaining biomechanical performance.
