The introduction to a 4 part post, documenting my journey so far since I dipped my toe into the area of customised 3D printed insoles.

you tease. i really want to know how to make the models now.

I was actually just thinking about 3D printed insoles, yesterday, as I trudged my way to work with my aching, unsupported arches. It’s what I get for buying cheap shoes, but working retail, expensive shoes are a waste because they actually wear out faster than the cheap ones.

A variety of insoles can be bought that should improve your situation. They won’t be custom tailored, but they would give you much better support. I’ve seen an insole rack at a sporting goods store.
