About METIS

METIS is the first fully 3D-printed shoe system designed for circularity, using recyclable materials and a modular construction architecture for repairability and fit. It leverages the core advantages of 3D printing - flexibility, repeatability and on-demand production - to industrialise footwear assembly.

METIS is the foundation of a broader footwear platform where any brand can create a 3D-printed design that looks and feels like a normal pair while leveraging the advantages of additive manufacturing.
