Description
Summary:Footwear is an important item of clothing that consumers wear on a daily basis. When selecting a shoe, buyers looked for comfort and practicality. There are many options to improve the comfort level of shoe fitting. However, these options have significant drawbacks. As a result, new materials will be introduced in order to provide consumers with better comfort fitting. Several methods of designing and fabricating the shoe will be studied in this research. These shoe prototypes are simply a proof-of-concept, and the mechanical properties of the shoes will be tested through a series of tests.
