How long was this technology in research? What's the anticipated lifespan? How do you keep it clean/free of debris?

adidas has been gathering data from the best athletes for 70 years and millions of data points. We have been using 3D printing for a long time in our prototyping processes. The first 3D printed shoe we have ever made was given to athletes during the Rio Olympics in 2016. adidas 4DFWD was created with one goal in mind – to take the next step in the development of data-driven 3D printed running performance shoes that unlocks unique capabilities and gives athletes the ultimate running experience. In partnership with Carbon, adidas has developed 4D lattice midsole technology since 2017, combined with years of athlete data and Carbon’s Digital Light Synthesis technology, to produce precision tuned 3D printed midsoles. Born from this process, the 4DFWD ‘bow-tie’ lattice midsole was identified from one of five million new possible lattice structures to add a new dimension of benefits for runners. The lifespan of the 4DFWD is not specified. Our running shoes all require the testing standards when it comes to durability and performance. As for cleaning, we’ve actually just launched a guide to help you do just that: https://www.adidas.com/us/blog/737916-how-to-clean-adidas-4dfwd-running-shoes tl;dr: Cool wash in the washing machine should work well! -CH

Is the printed material a currently used compound in other industry cases or has it been specifically developed for this product? What other materials were looked at and why was this one chosen?

Are these shoes designed purely for vanity or are there particular stability features that, for instance, offer pronatory support?

adidas
