Something I made hit the market

These are the first shoes out that have something on them that I have made.  I did the tooling, which in the industry is the outsole, and midsole.  I built them in 3D.  Another guy in my group built the upper.  Bob Mervar designed the shoe.  I love it, the shoe is super comfortable.  So you can see the rendered image shots and then the actual production shots.  It is something that actually stayed pretty true to form during production.
