Shoeflex 9075A Filament

ShoeFlex 9075A is a specialised TPU built for footwear and other wearable parts. It is rated 90A on the spool, but a special compound reacts to the heat of printing and softens it to around 75A once printed, giving you a genuinely soft, comfortable finished part while still printing like a firmer, easier to handle TPU. We currently stock it in eleven colours, all in 1.75mm and held locally in Australia.

Why Choose ShoeFlex 9075A?

This is the softest of our flexible materials once printed, but it does not print like it. You get real comfort and flex in the finished part, while the filament itself behaves closer to a firmer TPU on the way through your printer.

  • Rated 90A on the spool, softens to around 75A once printed for a genuinely soft feel
  • Prints like a firmer TPU, more manageable than true ultra-soft filaments
  • Strong layer adhesion for durable wearable parts
  • Eleven colours to choose from

Best Uses for ShoeFlex 9075A

This one earns its keep on anything worn against the body or that needs genuine softness:

  • 3D printed shoes and midsoles
  • Insoles and orthotic designs
  • Sandals and wearable components
  • Comfort focused cushioning parts

Comparing Our Flexible Filaments

We stock several flex materials, and the hardness rating on the spool only tells half the story:

  • ShoeFlex 9075A: 90A on the spool, softens to around 75A once printed, the softest option for direct skin contact wearables
  • InsoleFlex 9585A: 95A on the spool, softens to around 85A once printed, built for insoles and general cushioning
  • TPU 95A: 95A on the spool and stays 95A once printed, the firmest and most durable, best for cases and structural flexible parts
  • FPLA: a rigid flex PLA rather than a true TPU, easier to print for parts that need to spring back to shape rather than feel soft

Printer Compatibility

Our 1.75mm ShoeFlex 9075A prints on most FDM printers capable of handling TPU, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Anycubic machines. Direct drive extruders are recommended for the best results, and slower print speeds with reduced retraction will help minimise stringing.
