Thanks to Sourcing Journal and Jennifer Bringle for highlighting the role of the United States Footwear Manufacturers Association (USFMA), under the leadership of executive director Bill McCann, in helping build a more vibrant domestic supply chain to meet the requirements of the Berry Amendment. McCann told the inaugural military footwear industry day hosted by University of Massachusetts Lowell and U.S. Army DEVCOM that the industry "has stepped up its technological capability to not only meet the innovation demands of military footwear, but to be able to do so in a cost-effective way," Sourcing Journal reported. “New technologies like robotics, additive manufacturing, data analytics and artificial intelligence have increased automation and reduced the cost-of-labor advantages that countries like China and Vietnam have over the U.S.,” McCann told attendees. “Also, the pandemic exposed us as a nation that has a hard time making what we need in a crisis, and that has spurred a lot of entrepreneurship and investment in our industry and rebuilding our supply chain.” A primary effort is the Supporting Warfighters through Innovative Footwear Technologies (SWIFT) program dedicated to giving the U.S. military greater choices of state-of-the-art footwear developed and produced in the United States. "McCann said Congress approved $3 million for the first phase of SWIFT, with $10 million more per year appropriated for the next two years, and an additional $10 million pending," according to Sourcing Journal.

Why is 3D so popular in workwear? 🥾 This is actually a question I asked early on when I joined Fibbl. There’s a clear pattern in the footwear industry in which brands choose to invest in 3D experiences early on and it was not who I expected.. Workwear brands like the examples below, BLÅKLÄDER aka BLAKLADER, ELTEN Safety Footwear, Gaston MILLE and Lemaitre Sécurité SAS understand that in order to get ahead, emerging technologies like 3D & AR might be the best way for them to succeed. Some people just get it! Want to learn more? Send me a DM 🔥 #3D #AR #eCommerce #WorkWear

The hack to designing great running shoes? Experience. Understanding a runner's experience. As a runner and running shoe designer it's my competitive advantage. Runners may buy a pair of shoes based on specs. But they buy the second pair (or not) because of that experience. https://lnkd.in/eyAHSqTf ---- I’m the owner of The Directive Collective footwear design consultancy.
