The global custom shoes market was valued at USD 900.42 Billion in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.00% during the forecast period of 2026-2035. Increasing demand for shoes featuring hyper-personalisation, ranging from NFT-linked designs to biodegradable soles, among Gen Z and millennials is steering rapid growth, aiding the market to reach a value of USD 1466.69 Billion by 2035.
Government initiatives are also propelling the global market forward. In the United Kingdom, Innovate UK’s funding under the Smart Program that provides grants of between EUR 100,000 to EUR 500,000 has supported startups integrating 3D scanning and AI into shoe customisation platforms. Meanwhile, the EU’s Horizon 2020 project also spotlighted digital fashion ecosystems, encouraging SMEs to adopt 3D printing for rapid prototyping. These programmes have opened opportunities for smaller players to bring in technology-led flexibility without heavy upfront costs.
Growth in the custom shoes market is boosted by the blend of personalisation and advanced technology, particularly in the post-pandemic era, as consumer preferences drastically shifted towards comfort and individuality. With increased disposable income and wellness awareness, demand has surged not just for comfort-driven designs but also for bespoke aesthetics. This spike reflects a growing demand among professionals, athletes, and even orthopaedic patients.
Apart from design, custom shoes are being integrated with biofeedback sensors and sustainable materials. For instance, several manufacturers in Europe such as Studio Klarenbeek & Dros, Olmix, and Fermentalg, have started using algae-based soles and recycled fibres. This convergence of sustainability and innovation is becoming a core differentiator in B2B procurement, shaping the custom shoes market dynamics. Moreover, customisation is evolving from luxury into utility, especially across corporate gifting, athlete gear, and medical footwear.
