The latest issue of World Footwear is now available
12/01/2018
In this issue, we take a closer look at a multi-partner customised footwear initiative that its creators believe could be a game-changer for the industry.
A diverse materials and innovation section examines the role of robots in shoe manufacturing, explores the challenges of testing for anti-slip properties, and assesses the merits of using leather and synthetic materials in footwear.
We also ask how long the appetite for athleisure footwear can last, look at how consumer demand for shoes has changed and delve into why there is optimism in China about the domestic footwear market.
As well as all that, there is a thorough feature focusing on UK-based footwear brand Vivobarefoot, which is fighting to show brands and consumers that barefoot shoes allow the feet to perform at their best.
Subscribers can download the e-zine on the World Footwear page, and the printed edition will be out next week.
