Abstract: A method of producing a customized shoe last for individual fitting and shaping of the inner surface of the shoe includes production of a shoe last based on a precise shape and size of the digital foot model. The actual physical shape of the foot is converted into a foot model using 3D scanning. The digital foot model is divided into parts required for insertion and functioning of a mechanism, and simulation of the bend in the metatarsophalangeal and ankle joints. The parts of the foot obtained by dividing the digital model are then manufactured. An extendable mechanism to move the parts of the shoe last against each other in three axes of coordinates is developed, based the produced parts, an individual shoe last is manufactured in the form of a physical foot model, configured for personal fitting and shaping of an inner surface of the shoe.
