The process seems very long and seems like it requires a lot of materials that I don’t have. It also looks like a lot of machinery is required to get certain aspect of the sneaker/ shoes done. I think these three processes highlight the 3 different ways of making the sole of a sneaker/ shoe. The first video is done by making molds for the sole and then attaching the top half. The mold seem like it’s a pretty lengthy process that could take a couple of hour or even day.The second video they are using a machine press to force the rubber into a shape, that can then be place on the top half afterwards. The third video is a very long process, where its like they are assembling a Ford Model, there are many steps and require manpower and machines.

The thing that I would like to question is, if, it is possible to shorten one of these processes?
