Zellerfeld Print the Moncler Trailgrip 3D

Zellerfeld have helped Moncler create the Trailgrip 3D, which, as its name suggests, is a 3D-printed version of the latter’s Trailgrip model. The feat is impressive as the highly detailed design has been successfully printed from a single material, thanks to Zellerfeld’s proprietary machinery.

‘We are honoured to partner with such an iconic and visionary brand,’ said Cornelius Schmitt, co-founder and CEO of Zellerfeld. ‘As Moncler’s first venture into 3D-printing, this collaboration serves as a monumental moment for the footwear industry and further underscores the significant shift brands are taking to break away from the conventional factory manufacturing process. Luxury fashion houses like Moncler are driving the future of fashion by embracing 3D-printing production models as the new standard.’

The Trailgrip 3D will be exhibited in Paris at Moncler’s footwear showroom, Studio Ascenti. Collaborative designs with partners including adidas and Salehe Bembury will also be on show. While the Zellerfeld-assisted shoe won’t be for public sale – pairs will only be available for VIPs – Moncler have hinted at 3D-printed footwear in the future. These VIPs will also be invited to Studio Ascenti to preview what else the brand has coming on the footwear front.
