A method for generating a digital last for the manufacture of a shoe for a person, the method comprising:
- obtaining a predefined digital last, the predefined digital last comprising an axis relating to the shape of the last;
- obtaining data of a foot of the person;
- and
- modifying the obtained predefined digital last based on the obtained data, wherein modifying comprises at least one of translation and rotation of the axis, wherein the axis to be modified corresponds to a transverse axis of the foot of the person, wherein the transverse axis of the foot is formed by the straight connection between a first metatarsophalangeal joint and a fifth metatarsophalangeal joint of the foot of the person.
A tangible computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling at least one processor to:
- obtain a predefined digital last, the predefined digital last comprising an axis relating to the shape of the last;
- obtain data of a foot of the person;
- and
- modify the obtained predefined digital last based on the obtained data, wherein the modification comprises at least one of translating and rotationing of the axis, wherein the axis to be modified corresponds to a transverse axis of the foot of the person, wherein the transverse axis of the foot is formed by the straight connection between a first metatarsophalangeal joint and a fifth metatarsophalangeal joint of the foot of the person.
