Methods and systems for customizing wearable equipment such as athletic equipment, including ice skates. For example, an ice skate may comprise a skate boot and blade holder. The skate boot may be customized, e.g., may be manufactured using a custom last. A method of operating a computing device to customize the skate boot last may comprise: carrying out a 3D modeling application; obtaining a scan of a foot from an image acquisition device; creating a model of the foot; obtaining a model of a customized last based on the model of the foot; creating metadata and associating the metadata with the 3D model data; and generating a production specification for the customized last based on the model of the customized last and the metadata.

Methods and systems for design and production of customized wearable equipment

Toe cap for a skate

A skate (e.g., an ice skate) for a user (e.g., a hockey player). The skate comprises a skate boot for receiving a foot of the user and a skating device (e.g., a blade and a blade holder) disposed beneath the skate boot to engage a skating surface. The skate boot may be designed to better fit the user's foot and/or enhance skating performance of the user, such as by being shaped in accordance with anatomy of toes of the user's foot and/or enhancing integrity of the skate boot.

Skate

Methods and systems for customizing wearable equipment such as athletic equipment, including ice skates and protective equipment such as masks. For example, a hockey goaltender mask may comprise a shell a liner attached to the shell, the liner being customized for a face of a user. The liner may be produced using a customized mold. Such customized mold may include a base mold and at least one attachment attached to the base mold; wherein each of the at least one attachment is characterized by at least one feature determined based on computer processing of data representative of the face of the user.
