London-based company Prior 2 Lever will first scan a soccer player's feet by laser to obtain a digital model.Next the player carries out a series of exercises wearing a force-recording insole called a pedar. A template is then produced for the sole and stud arrangement around which the rest of the boot is based.
The blueprint is then converted into the finished boot using a technique developed by University College London researcher Siavash Mahdavi. The 3-D design is replicated by laser printer.
After ensuring a perfect fit for soccer players, the aim is to take the technique to shops which could print a pair of bespoke shoes in just a few hours.
