New Balance unveils its first 3D-printed running shoe

by John_A

Following in the footsteps of sportswear rival Adidas, New Balance today introduced its own 3D-printed running shoe. Created in collaboration with 3DSystems, a company known for offering 3D printing tech, New Balance’s sneaker features a 3D-printed midsole made from a newly developed elastomeric powder and DuraForm Flex TPU. By using said materials, New Balance says, the running shoe’s bottom cushion will be able to provide an “optimal” balance of flexibility, durability, strength and weight — which, in theory, should make them comfortable for runners, and that’s important.Slideshow-342153
