Shoemaster 12

Shoemaster 12 is a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software specifically developed for the footwear industry, used by designers, manufacturers, and technicians for the design, development, and production of shoes.

What it is:

Shoemaster 12 is part of the Shoemaster suite of tools and represents a comprehensive solution for designing and manufacturing shoes, including 3D modeling, pattern making, grading, and production preparation. This version, Shoemaster 12, is an updated release that integrates various advanced features to streamline the footwear design and manufacturing process.

What it’s used for:

Shoe design and modeling
- 3D modeling tools allow users to design shoes from scratch, including uppers, soles, and other components. The software provides features for creating realistic 3D visuals of shoes before physical production.
2D pattern making
- Shoemaster enables users to create, modify, and grade shoe patterns (for uppers, linings, and other parts) in 2D. These patterns are essential for the cutting and assembly of materials during the manufacturing process.
Grading
- The software provides tools to grade patterns automatically, ensuring they fit different shoe sizes while maintaining design integrity and ensuring proper fit across size ranges.
Last and sole design
- Shoemaster allows users to design shoe lasts (the forms around which shoes are made) and soles in both 2D and 3D, offering precise control over the shoe’s structure and fit.
