Yeah, it's a "think" in Runner's World magazine. Mostly low-performance shoes.

Nike is also working on a shoe that is going to be used to break the mythical 2-hour barrier.

When those two trends merge and 3D sensors come to your iPhone 9 or Samsung Universe 3, it's going to be a bad day for shoe retailers.

This is the FIRST thing I wanted to see printed.  I wanted the ability to design and print my own cool shoe.

Back when y'all were talkin about printing guns, I WANTED SHOES.
