“Diverse customer needs across different sports require us to transform the way we make our products so they are truly personalized,” said Genki Hatano, lead researcher in the Green Manufacturing Research Team, Future Creation Dept., ASICS Institute of Sport Science (ISS). “Our research with athletes shows they feel the value of personalized footbeds. This has inspired us to consider making personalized footwear accessible to all.”
