HSU-I Develops FORME: New Possibilities with HUMOFIT®

HSU-I brings Mitsui Chemicals’ HUMOFIT® temperature-responsive material into footwear applications, combining material expertise with insole design and processing technologies to develop FORME functional insoles.

Temperature-Adaptive Fit × Arch Support

Beyond conventional cushioning, FORME utilizes the temperature-responsive properties of HUMOFIT® to gradually conform to the shape of the foot, providing a balance of adaptive fit, arch support, and comfort.

Temperature-Responsive Fit | Adapts to Your Feet

From morning to evening, your feet naturally change after hours of standing and walking.

HUMOFIT® gradually softens with and adapts to changes in foot shape, gently conforming to the foot for a comfortable and supportive fit throughout the day.

Arch Support | Stability for Every Step

HUMOFIT® is integrated into key arch areas with heel and arch support structures, providing stable support for commuting, standing, walking, and sports.

Pressure Distribution |  Comfort Throughout the Day

HUMOFIT® conforms to the foot, increasing contact area and reducing localized pressure for balanced support and comfort.

Starting with HUMOFIT® — Exploring More Possibilities in Material Applications

For sports shoes, casual footwear, or functional insoles, HSU-I can work with you to evaluate HUMOFIT® material configurations, structures, processing, and prototypes based on your design needs. From material evaluation to prototyping, we look forward to exploring new HUMOFIT® applications with you.

FORME — Formed for you. Powered by HUMOFIT®.
