    But how many of them make it into commercial products?

    Aloha,

    Some do and some do not.
    As professionals in footwear design and manufacturing we don't have to always wait for a "product" to become commercialized to try and test it.

    Often we can build these proposed advanced footwear systems in our own shops with readily available materials.

    The thing with patents is that you may not build and sell the "claimed" technology for a profit.

    So build your own pair.

    Then if you happen to think up of a new way of making footwear and lower extremity protection-projection-plantation better, patent it.

    Then perhaps submit a white paper on it to,
    https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&tab=core&id=9ba5618073c7bfa2d4abd42e1f5c4ee4

    FYI most "shoe designers" at the Big Foam shoe companies are college "art majors".
    So don't expect them to understand bio-mechanical and mechanical engineering principles.

    "Hey Doc ! I got two art degrees in college!!"
    True response from a real shoe-combat boot designer for our armed services when asked to conceptualize the physics of a newly patented innovation.

    A hui hou,
    Steve

    I am a bit surprised, as I thought Nike had moved on from the bladders or chambers to alter orthotic characteristics.

    If only there were a method for obtaining the benefits of hydraulic orthotics without the problem of chamber failure.....
