Valinos: configure and personalize your own shoes
Lack of visualization in configuration process of shoes
Valinos faced a significant challenge with their traditional product customization process. The intricate details and diverse options available for their products made it difficult for customers to envision the final product accurately.
The limitations of static images and basic configuration tools led to a gap in communication, often resulting in misunderstandings between Valinos and their customers. This not only delayed the production process but also occasionally led to customer dissatisfaction when the delivered product did not align with their expectations.
Create your own shoe from top to bottom: hyperconfiguration made easy
Valinos embraced Expivi’s 3D configurator platform to revolutionize their product customization experience. The platform’s digital prototyping capabilities allowed customers to virtually build and visualize their custom shoes in3D. With an intuitive interface, customers could explore various configurations, from material choices to design elements, providing them with a realistic preview of their personalized shoe.
Expivi’s configurator is integrated with Valinos’ website, offering a user-friendly experience for both desktop and mobile users. They can configure their shoes for recurring customers, enabling them to pick up where they left off and make further adjustments. This not only streamlined the ordering process but also enhanced customer loyalty.
Moreover, the 3D configurator was a powerful tool to drive customers to Valinos’ showrooms. Customers could save and share their configured designs, creating a bridge between the digital and physical experiences. The showroom visit became a continuation of the online customization journey, fostering a more personalized and engaging interaction between Valinos and its customers.
