From upper to sole: one consistent material and color picture.
Footwear teams work with leather, PU synthetics, mesh, rubber and foam in one product. DMIx keeps color and material aligned across all components and suppliers on one source.
Three pain points Footwear teams hit daily.
Color reads differently on leather vs mesh
Spectral standards and PBR materials make metamerism visible before components go into series.
Component suppliers drift the colorway apart
Color Library plus BulkControl keep upper, sole and trim suppliers aligned to the same master.
3D sample only ready after weeks
SamplR and Material 3D Library deliver scans in days, without a physical sample tour around the globe.
