Till Steinforth, a @unlarchitecture master's student and decathlete for @huskertfxc , spent the summer working with Kylin Flothe, @unl_tmfd assistant professor of practice, bringing all his interests together to create the first fully 3-D printed running shoe.
Steinforth said he has always had an interest in fashion and clothing, which is why he signed up for TMFD 123 Clothing & Society during his first year at Nebraska as an ACE 9 course. When he decided to pursue his idea of 3-D printing a running shoe, he reached back out to the TMFD department, and Flothe, Steinforth’s instructor from that first course, became his faculty mentor for his summer project.
One shoe took about 24 hours to print with all three parts – sole, upper, carbon plate. All three parts were printed separately then the upper was glued to the sole. The removable carbon plate allows for the shoes to be worn for a variety of types of workouts, providing increased stability when it is inserted and increased cushioning when it’s removed. The integrated insole of the upper also makes the Ripple Runner stand out, eliminating the need for additional inserts and ensuring a seamless fit.
“I think it’s really unique how he printed the upper because it’s almost like a sock,” Flothe said. “It’s not just the top, but the inner sole as well. That’s not something I’d ever really seen before and the flexible material allowed for that, but it took a lot of engineering on Till’s part and a lot of playing with the Rhino design language.”
