Hezo Sports Will Make You Custom 3D-Printed Zero Drop Road & Gravel Shoes for Your Feet Only
March 10, 2026
The use of 3D printing has become commonplace in the cycling industry for good reason: the technology allows designers to produce complex shapes and products that may not be possible otherwise (or at least not financially viable). In spite of that, the cycling industry still has yet to crack the true potential of 3D printing with completely custom products, made with the exact measurements to fit one customer: you.
That seems to be where German sports equipment manufacturer, HEZO comes into play. Hezo has developed a personalized cycling shoe production system that creates custom footwear using 3D printing technology and smartphone-based foot scanning. The company, originally founded as Gegenwind Sport GmbH in February 2022, uses an app-based foot scan to collect 1,000 data points with a claimed 1-millimeter accuracy, which feeds into proprietary fitting software that uses algorithms to produce individually tailored cycling shoes. BIKERUMOR!
