In 2017, Adidas unveiled a groundbreaking innovation - The Futurecraft 4D, a revolutionary shoe design that featured a 3D printed midsole. Today, we cover the origins, significance, and evolution of Adidas' futuristic line of footwear.

Spearheaded by Marco Kormann, Adidas' journey of mass production 3D printing began with their partnership with Carbon 3D. Using Carbon's Digital Light Synthesis technology, Adidas has designed a line of footwear unlike anything that has ever existed before. The Adidas 4D series, rooted in a decade's worth of athletic data, not only showcases the capabilities of 3D printing but also offers unique design and performance advantages that can only be achieved with an additive process. Watch now to learn more about this incredible intersection of fashion & technology.
