That&rsquo;s certainly been my experience wearing Adidas&rsquo; new 3D-printed Climacool sneakers on the beach, trail, or in the city. I felt more eyes on my footwear than normal, with a determined flick upward to see who was brave enough, dumb enough, or fantastic enough to wear such a shoe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">I&rsquo;ve been a fan of Adidas&rsquo; 3D-printed kicks ever since I purchased a pair of its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adidas.com\/us\/4d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">4D running shoes<\/a> a few years ago. But those are traditional multi-material sneakers with 3D printing limited to the midsoles.
