FTWkit is now official: A new standard in footwear development


FTWkit is the all-in-one solution for footwear professionals, bringing together:
  • Botcha – For footwear design and 3D development
  • Jevero – For pattern engineering and product development
  • Jevero Cost – For precise cost estimation
FTWkit is the umbrella for Design&Develop entire suite of Rhino plugins—a unified ecosystem for footwear design, pattern engineering, and cost analysis.

This isn’t just a rebrand. With FTWkit, they’re introducing a new industry paradigm: a digital workflow based on a shared platform.

Why does this matter? Because working within a common environment like Rhino means:
  • Seamless collaboration across teams
  • Faster development through a shared language and integrated tools
  • A streamlined workflow that connects every stage of the process
  • More efficient prototyping thanks to a digital-first approach
­With this shift, their digital presence evolves too:

A single website with everything about FTWkit and its plugins. Their LinkedIn and Instagram profiles are now named FTWkit.
Contact Design&Develop if you need more information or would like to discuss a custom plugin for your company.

Whitepaper by Design&Develop on footwear design and manufacturing


Bringing footwear from concept to consumers' hands is an elaborate journey, often fragmented across disparate stages, departments, and technologies.

In the footwear design and development process, the easiest approach to quick integration is to establish a common platform for all collaborating work functions, ensuring a simple, streamlined workflow. We propose that Rhinoceros is well-suited for this role for several reasons.
