  "textContent": "With running more popular than ever, production of running shoes has reached a new level. Global footwear manufacturing has increased significantly over the last 15 years, and the industry itself has become a form of advanced engineering. Big companies are competing to build lighter, faster, and more energy-efficient shoes using complex combinations of foams, fabrics, and plastics. While performance continues to improve, sustainability still remains a secondary concern.\n\nContinue Reading\n\n**Category:** Materials, Engineering\n\n**Tags:** Fraunhofer, Shoes, Footwear, Recycling",
