The soles on some old shoes had worn down to the point of literally falling off, but we wanted to get more mileage out of them (and 3D-printed replacements sounded like a fun project).

I took a picture of the bottom of the shoe, imported it into Fusion, and modeled replacements with the photo added as a canvas.  I added a tread to the bottom.  The soles were printed in TPU on a textured plate.  Printing on a textured plate prevented the bottom from being entirely smooth as well.  Versions both with and without treads are uploaded.
