Existing footwear models and the lasts on which they are built may be more or less suitable for certain geographical areas based on the most common foot morphology in those regions. The distribution of sizes across geographical areas can also be managed, for example to reduce inventory, by analyzing the most significant size range in each area. Another step involves the production of custom shoes or the optimization of industrial production. Newlast has developed an extremely precise and rapid tool that can create a data collection network, the first step toward a more advanced and profitable way of producing shoes.
