Preguntas frecuentes
Footwear FAQ
- Does IMAI replace footwear CAD or PLM?
- No. IMAI works with existing systems while specialist tools continue to handle lasts, patterns, soles, molds, and production tooling.
- Can IMAI manage lasts and size runs?
- IMAI can connect last references, size runs, widths, components, specifications, and approved decisions for qualified footwear teams to review.
- Can IMAI eliminate physical prototypes?
- It can reduce avoidable rounds. Physical fit, comfort, wear, performance, durability, and production approval remain necessary.
- Can approved footwear become launch content?
- Yes. Approved footwear can become imagery, detail views, product pages, line sheets, videos, and channel-specific assets.
