Comfortable ballet shoes are the ultimate goal of creative Hadar Neeman — a recent graduate of the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design. Drawing on personalization through design capabilities unlocked by 3D-printing technology, the footwear boasts an adaptable fit that secures the dancer's foot, offering superior comfort and protection during performances.
As the cost of ballet dancing as a profession is widely recognized, Neeman's product is specifically designed to address a niche industry. With 3D-printing technology steadily being applied to all areas of life, the graduate harnesses its potential. Dubbed the 'P-rouette,' the model has proven to be "three-times more durable than [its] traditional [counterpart]." The process of manufacturing the comfortable ballet shoes is multifold and it includes the dancer's foot being scan via a mobile app to ensure an optimal fit.
