Adidas just revealed a new sneaker called the Futurecraft 4D. The shoe’s sole is made using a 3D printing type process — but there’s a twist. Instead of using additive printing methods, Carbon, the company responsible for printing the shoes, uses a process known as Continuous Liquid Interface Production.
Essentially, this process makes it possible to use 3D printing for mass production since it’s faster and more efficient than the current methods of 3D printing. And that’s what sets Adidas apart from other shoe companies that have started to integrate 3D printing.
