We believe footwear will be crafted with our individual anatomy and biomechanics as the foundation.  The DNA concept leverages rapid manufacturing to create a shoe built not only to your foot contours, but also to how you move. By pairing data
The first step is to acquire the data that an individual's shoes will be based on.  Each customer's feet are three dimensionally scanned.  Then they put on a pair of special sensor shoes and go for a test run or walk.  The sensors tra
The DNA Shoe prototype (shown below) was 3D printed by FATHOM using PolyJet Technology on an Objet500 Connex3 — a digital combination of rigid and flexible materials were used to achieve the ideal durometer (VeroClear, VeroYellow, Tango, and TangoB
Some of our process - from sketches and 2D renderings to CAD and prototype details.
PROTOTYPES - and they fit!
Before this concept can become a reality, there are advancements that need to happen in 3d printing technology.  For example, the materials currently available don't offer the durability or softness necessary for wearing every day or for athle
