I had a chance to interview the CEO of a company called SOLs. SOLs looks to bring both insoles and orthotics to people around the globe. The custom design accomplished by 3D printing should revolutionize the way people think about insoles/orthotics.

Do you guys think SOLs are something that you would give a try to?
SOLS today announced their official launch. 70 Doctors across the United States will now offer these custom 3d printed orthotics.

Some more news coming from SOLS. This time it's an entire concept for a robotic adaptable high-top shoe. These shoes are called ADAPTIV. More details here: http://3dprint.com/44772/sols-adaptiv-3d-print/
Below is a picture of the ADAPTIV shoe. Pretty cool, huh?

This announcement also comes just as it is expected that SOLS, the maker of 3D printed orthotics, will provide information regarding a new product in the next few weeks. The SOLS team is working with those who have been laid off to help them find new opportunities, and they have been provided with severance packages as well.
