From nerve-stimulating sneakers to nitrogen-infused running shoes, the June 2021 footwear trends showcase the industry's innovations, many of which are geared towards maximum comfort and foot functionality. As technology progresses, companies can observe the ways in which shoe designs can improve.
One interesting example is the BioPods Stimsoles sneakers, designed to activate the 100,000 sensory receptors in the foot for more optimal muscle function. This shoe works with midsole pins that apply gentle pressure to the foot to activate a sensory response that adjusts the muscle function accordingly.
Another notable example is The Brooks Aurora-BL running shoes constructed with a nitrogen-injected foam called DNA LOFT V3. The soft design offers a decoupled midsole to help the heel and the forefoot move independently.
