A grippy filament for the first 5 layers and switch to the chinchilla would be an interesting experiment. What I am really curious about though is the difference between the different designs. It's not clear what makes each model different compared to the others.
VarioShore TPU always seemed like the perfect filament for printing shoes. Adjusting the temperature per layer could allow you to make some parts stiffer than others.
It’s like you knew! I’ve been researching 3d printed shoes this week to print a good pair as an “attention grabber” for my booth! 😂 Another great video!! 🔥
The really soft filaments underextrude at higher speeds because it's hard for the extruder to unspool. While harder filaments are pulled out linearly with the extruder gears, the softer ones stretch without turning the spool. If you unspool a portion of the softer filaments first, you can actually print them at almost normal PLA speeds
@@thenextlayer So perhaps a motorised unspooler would help. You would need any random geared DC motor that you can couple to a spool hub, and a Vishay TCST gate might work to detect the hanginess. Once it's hung down enough to clear or block the gate, the motor would be run.
I hope you do something with super hard TPUs in the future. Super hard TPU is apparently super abrasion resistant and extremely strong so it would be insanely useful for certain applications but way too expensive for a hobbyist like me to drop so much money on a roll lol
@@KcCake Rumour has it you can get 70D TPU. That's nominally similar hardness to most hard-plastics, just a little softer, but it still behaves very different, since Shore is a local surface property but macroscopically they're still on the flexible side. Pellets that are even harder exist as well but don't think anybody is building filaments that are harder, unless...
I just received some Polymaker TPU90. I have been wanting to print a pair of shoes, however, I agree the current designs are so bulky. I have so gotta try this on my K1 Max. Wish me luck! Awesome video and thanks for introducing Alessio design.
Awesome video! As someone who doesn't want to spend a fortune on "known brand" shoes, where over half the cost is for the manufacturer's label, I really love the idea. Let's hope we can make them easier to print with more research and tuning
Well done sir! You did your research. Normally when people talk about 3D printed shoes they only talk about Zellerfeld and never mention that Adidas has been doing it for years now. My wife got me a pair and they are surprisingly comfortable, they engineered the lattice structure to control the pressure distribution on the foot. The nerdiest shoes I own. I agree with you that I'm not excited about the croc style and various "futuristic" looking printable shoes. I'm glad to see that other designers are exploring the space. I'd love a shoe kind of shoe that I can print, with a normal looking lattice structure sole and an upper the looks very much like the shoes you tested here. I think your idea of a shoe made of more than one material is a really good path forward. I do hope you circle back around to this at some point. I enjoyed the video, be nicer to future you, I'm sure he's tired of fixing all your mistakes!
For anyone curious a bowden ender 3 can print NinjaFlex 85A TPU @30mm/s. and that’s a good soft and flexible material, so just about any printer large enough can print these.
I have made some clothing items by 3D printing flat sewing patterns and stitching them together with a 3D pen, it works very well! My next project is doing the same with a shoe pattern. Durable sole and sides with open infill pattern. It will have (TPU) laces and with filament swaps you can create decals.
I think having a show of 75a with a small layer of chinchilla on the inside where your foot touches would be a good combo of traction, touch, and bend ability
Thanks much for posting this video! I've been wearing Vibram 5 toe shoes almost exclusively for 15 years. Even at at least $87 bucks a pair they seem like the quality is getting cheaper and cheaper. I have tons of vibram soles, but the fabric wears out after a single year. Would love to glue a fabric-like shell onto an old vibram sole (which can probably last 3 years).
Have you considered casting a mold of your foot, printing just the sole of the shoe, then place the mold on top of the sole and print the rest of the shoe around the mold?
I have a Bambu Lab P1S and was wondering if I print with the NinjaTek Chinchilla TPE do I need to get a brass or hardened nozzle since mine came with stainless steel, and can the door or top be uncovered as I do with PLA and TPU?
On embarrassing your loved ones. I printed a pair of crocs out of 95a tpu. Originally an experiment/joke until...they freaking worked. They became my household shoes and ive gone put to walmart with them receiving multiple compliments about them.

Keep it up brotha always giving us ideas and projects. I am a father and business owner around the same age as you in the US. I am constantly trying to find or make new designs to try and keep the shop fresh having alot of luck with small projects that are designed for you to do with your family or children. Wouldn't be a bad idea of doing a family oriented project video get at me if you wanna talk shop. I appreciate all your work and look forward to seeing more of your projects keep gettin it 🤙
One of the things i dont see with 3d printed shoes which i think they could really benefit from and would reduce the poofy shoe issue i printing the bottom sole mid sole insole and outer shell of different materials say you were making a running shoe you could make the bottom sole out of the most abrasion resistant stuff you can find to have it last longer and the stuff that needs to be softer out of something softer Second thing you can do that i dont see being done anywhere is you could look at the shoes you already own and look where are the areas that you scrape the most and erode a lot and reinforce those either by again making them out of a material more resistant to abbrasion or just adding more material in those areas
ok so I am very new to this 3d printing thing but I had a thought....if you can add magnets for example, mid print....could you scan and print an accurate "buck" of your own foot, say in PLA or whatever....then after the sole is printed, pause the print, insert the buck and continue to print the shoes over and around it? modifying the tool path as needed to avoid collisions with the buck. It would essentially be a removable, non attached support, in the shape of a custom last, providing support for sagging and ensuring that the shoes would be printed in the exact shape of your foot.....why wouldn't that work? love the channel, forgive my ignorance!
A quick suggestion, from mg own experience with switching to barefoot shoes - it looks like you are still landing on the heel, and striding as if you were wearing the "normal" shoes (putting your leading foot waaay too far.in front of you) Try the following: -instead of lenfhtening ypur stride forward - try to lenghten it on the *back* foot, aka, try to propel yourself forward mpre qotj the back foot, while putting the front leg.mucj less.far in front of your body. Think of it as moving your body/center mass forward in relation to your contact points with the ground. That might require a few months of stretching and exercising. Look up content on how to train for barefoot shoes - try to point your feet slightly inwards, and it will help to exaggerate landing your front feet on toes/ball. Good luck.!
Ball walking. It's what every human on the planet used to do before shoes with hard soles and raised heels were invented/became the norm. I always ball walk when in bare feet or shoes with thin soles. It makes so much more sense when you get used to it.
It would be interesting to experiment with using something like 3dgloop to glue a thicker sole (possibly also 3d printed) onto these for those of us who prefer that style of shoe Edit: You could even print just the sole out of something like that 70A and glue it to a slightly less flexible but easier to print upper half, maybe that would offer better integrity while maintaining most of that desired flexibility
I have been watching your channel for a while now, and I really enjoy the typical TNL vids, with all the trial and error… but this video is top of the heap for me with TNL vibes lol… the interstitials are really fun and funny, and as a video topic I think this is great. I’ve not had a ton of luck printing with flexibles on my P1S, but I haven’t tried much. I also now have a quality filament drier (Sunlu S4), so I need to try again, but I am also casually shopping for more printers. It seems like open frame printers and/or bedslingers are the way to go. I am considering an A1 Mini since they’re so versatile and simple, but I am also looking for a large format printer. The comgrow T300 and 500 are really appealing since they’re so beefy lol
Fantastic (and funny) video. As always - informative, entertaining & useful videos. In the next few days, I will print lots of shoes like these for my family. Thank you, Jonathan.
I’d like to see if these can be done in multi material. Use a soft grippy option for the outsole and a soft to the touch option for the uppers. Also, I have seen recent videos about varying the infill to make stiff or soft areas. It would be great to see this in these shoes. Soft in the heal and stiff in the arches.
What'll really be next level will be to scan your feet and then have the shoe's shape conformed to your feet. BTW, I also do barefoot shoes and my wife is also embarrassed. BAREFOOTERS UNITE!
What an awesome video! I have horrible neuropathy in my feet and ankles, so when I do wear shoes, they have to be soft and easy to slip off whenever I stop somewhere. A pair of barefoot shoes like these would be so nice to have. I'm guessing I just need a better printer than my geriatric CR-6 SE to print a pair! 🤪
@@thenextlayer well, I just got an inexpensive dual gear extruder to replace the single gear OEM extruder, and printing slowly is it's strong suit, so maybe! I just need to save for some TPU. Being on disability makes getting stuff time consuming.
how does the sole feel on the ground? do you feel the ground textures? would not be a good city shoes to protect you from debris, glass , dog pop etc..
You've got it wrong... Embarrassing your wife and kids is more reason TO wear these shoes, not a deterrent. Once they see your confidence, they'll want a pair too!
🤔 WHY on earth would someone be embarrassed being seen with a person wearing barefoot shoes?!?! 💔 Oh yeah, I know... for way too many women it's all about high-heels, x-long knife-like fingernails, lip-fillers, and hair extensions, looking like Kim Kartrashian. They probably don't even walk barefoot at home 😂
@@thenextlayer maybe even print a foot that you could slice in the sections and place in the print as it goes along. You know different layers. I don't know. Just throwing things out there lol
Hopefully you'll get that SV08 up and running for multi-material soon, this really seems like a project where printing the soles and uppers in two different materials (assuming any of these can bond together) would really improve the final outcome. I'm also kind of wondering if printing the whole thing in the best material for the uppers and then pouring silicone to surround and fill in for solid soles would improve the outcome on some of these. Having mesh soles kind of worries me, even as someone who is barefoot almost any time I can get away with it. You never know what you might step on out in the world.
I mean, for the slippery Chinchilla, you could always glue or 3d print first a layer of TPU/ninjaflex. I'm almost ready to bite the bulet and try it myself haha, not sure if my Bambulab A1 could choke those filaments though... But if it does, I'll be the most specatcular looking mofo in Hadera!
Very neat! I stopped caring about what my shoes looked like when I switched to barefoot shoes LOL. People already think they look goofy with the wide toe box, very clown shoe-esque. Very curious how these hold up to daily and more intense use like running and exercise as well. For me my regular vivo shoes have lasted a little more than a year, though they probably should have been replaced months ago. I'm about to get a new pair and send my worn out ones back to recycle but maybe by the next pair I'll be able to print them!
Bingo! I love that Vivo lets you recycle them! Honestly, the Balena ones are already more comfortable than barefoot shoes + socks (which are already insanely comfortable), but the chinchilla are just on another level. Like walking around on silk!
perhaps what you have made isn't actually a shoe but more of an evolution of the sock? IF you could make a second section that attached to shoe print that worked like a high top sock then you may have created a washable wearable long lasting sock? The second idea would be that you simply build an All weather 3D printed over shoe that fits over your very breathable 3D printed socks/ that double as Summer shoes?
Hah! That wrapping around the gear stuff reminds me of my experience with the Recreus Filaflex 60A PRO on my P1S. Had to drill a hole into the toolhead cover to get the tension screw to back out *enough*.
Really excited to see this, I like my Crocs but have not 3d printed any since they all look so big, and with a size 13 mens (us) shoe, I hate puffy shoes.
love the video really like the idea of not chonky boy shoe's but i have a question about the dryer boxes. i would really like to love the sovol dryer but for just 30 euro more i can get the sunlu s4 taht can dry 4 spools so whats does the sovol do that the sunlu cant? or am i missing something ?
It’s in ALL the filament recycling videos. ua-cam.com/video/Hm6KpEajD4o/v-deo.htmlsi=oTXgi28BYVVxgHA6 ua-cam.com/video/_P0fGI4CPoA/v-deo.htmlsi=5maPE-04ASSBfznS
Okay, I am a 3D printing n00b, but wouldn't it be possible to have a "plastic foot" or one of those cardboard stiffeners they use to make shoes look good in the store as a security bridge for the floopiest of the filaments to not allow them to sag as much during the print? Not to the point where they are actually all the way to the level where you are printing, but almost...? I have absolutely NO idea if this would even help out, but in my head it should :P
Thank you so much for printing my shoes designs Jonathan, has been a pleasure and honour, great video!
Thank YOU for the collaboration! I hope you'll upload the "barefoot" versions soon for all to enjoy!

in general shoes use different materials and technologies for the sole and upper. i suggest experimenting that way.

@@thenextlayer I'm sure... inline speed skating wheels... ASAorABS hubs/ TPU ? Does it bond together like commercially available urethane wheels
Ninjatek Armadillo is 75D, which puts it in the same range as nylon, but with better abrasion and impact resistance, as well as better layer adhesion.
Homeless people treat socks like gold. They're a high wear item, so no matter who you are you go through them pretty quickly if you walk.

the plastics app link doesn't work. Looks like a really cool project
Fixed! Check it out.
What about using a mold inside during printing?
Man these videos make me want to get a corona or sv07 or maybe sv08 but after using the Bambu ecosystem I don't wanna go back.
Haaa I was right on the teaser photo
I'm surprised you didn't try varioShore TPU
Next time….
I mean, for the slippery Chinchilla, you could always glue or 3d print first a layer of TPU/ninjaflex. I'm almost ready to bite the bulet and try it myself haha, not sure if my Bambulab A1 could choke those filaments though... But if it does, I'll be the most specatcular looking mofo in Hadera!
Maybe some pla mold could be placed on the print to give support
why not print these shoes and use PLA as a support. Thats what I do on my e3d tool changer when printing TPU that needs support.
Very neat!
I stopped caring about what my shoes looked like when I switched to barefoot shoes LOL. People already think they look goofy with the wide toe box, very clown shoe-esque.
Very curious how these hold up to daily and more intense use like running and exercise as well. For me my regular vivo shoes have lasted a little more than a year, though they probably should have been replaced months ago.
I'm about to get a new pair and send my worn out ones back to recycle but maybe by the next pair I'll be able to print them!
Bingo! I love that Vivo lets you recycle them! Honestly, the Balena ones are already more comfortable than barefoot shoes + socks (which are already insanely comfortable), but the chinchilla are just on another level. Like walking around on silk!
@@thenextlayer sounds like I've got a reason for a larger printer in the next year or so! Thanks!
perhaps what you have made isn't actually a shoe but more of an evolution of the sock? IF you could make a second section that attached to shoe print that worked like a high top sock then you may have created a washable wearable long lasting sock? The second idea would be that you simply build an All weather 3D printed over shoe that fits over your very breathable 3D printed socks/ that double as Summer shoes?
Would this be printable on the Bambu Lab A1? I have a 0.6 nozzle, wear barefoot shoes and I'm in need of a pair of new summer shoes!
Only one way to find out
@@thenextlayer 😬 I do have some cheap TPU, but it's 95A. Might be a bit stiff.
One pair of printed custom jordans coming right up
Hah! That wrapping around the gear stuff reminds me of my experience with the Recreus Filaflex 60A PRO on my P1S.
Had to drill a hole into the toolhead cover to get the tension screw to back out *enough*.
Really excited to see this, I like my Crocs but have not 3d printed any since they all look so big, and with a size 13 mens (us) shoe, I hate puffy shoes.
Try these out!! I’ll remind alessio to upload them and add a link to the description
@@thenextlayer Awesome! I will give them a shot. Thank you for bringing this, as well as the other custom/ built it yourself stuff to us!
love the video really like the idea of not chonky boy shoe's but i have a question about the dryer boxes.
i would really like to love the sovol dryer but for just 30 euro more i can get the sunlu s4 taht can dry 4 spools so whats does the sovol do that the sunlu cant? or am i missing something ?
I don’t think it’s fair for me to comment about the Sunlu, considering Sovol sponsored this video. But I’ll mention this to Sovol…
I wonder how 70A soles with the chinchilla on the sides/top would do.
FREE THE FEET
is it weird i think they look really cool and not 3d printed, im new to 3d printing (still dont have my own yet)
wait wait wait wait, 7 toolhead conversion, I need to see!
Now I know that we at least have 2 things in common 😉
Let’s go for 3… hot sauces?
@@thenextlayer A man after my own heart! We definitely need to hang out!
Hey man, still looking for your video where you show a purge line bin, which video was it ? was it for the p1p ? cheers
It’s in ALL the filament recycling videos. ua-cam.com/video/Hm6KpEajD4o/v-deo.htmlsi=oTXgi28BYVVxgHA6 ua-cam.com/video/_P0fGI4CPoA/v-deo.htmlsi=5maPE-04ASSBfznS
@@thenextlayer thank you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@thenextlayer can't find it
Save yourself time and just dip your feet in some Plasti Dip. Done.
That’s brilliant. Then I never have to take them off even there.
Is this shoe impossible on a Bambulabs A1?
Oh my god, Shoes.
Do you already have the review of the Sovol SH02 filament dryer?
Nope I don’t really review this type of stuff, or even many printers these days
30 is almost freezing, what do you mean "thirty plus heat"
I don’t use freedom units bruh
Im sorry, you'll learn real measurements one day bro. I believe in you.
😆 nice video, man!
Thank you!
Dude, just print on a Prusa XL and use a dissolvable support material
Oh true true. But I don’t have an XL
@@thenextlayer *presents you with an XL*
If I could I would!
Okay, I am a 3D printing n00b, but wouldn't it be possible to have a "plastic foot" or one of those cardboard stiffeners they use to make shoes look good in the store as a security bridge for the floopiest of the filaments to not allow them to sag as much during the print? Not to the point where they are actually all the way to the level where you are printing, but almost...? I have absolutely NO idea if this would even help out, but in my head it should :P
