3D WASP | 3D Printed Shoebox in Nylon Carbon by Adidas for Lionel Messi @wasprojecteam | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Adidas commissioned WASP to create a one-of-a-kind 3D printed shoebox that was handed directly to Lionel Messi as a special gift for his 8th Ballon d’Or win, containing a custom-made pair of Adidas shoes.
This unique packaging was fully created using WASP 4070 ZX, the professional 3D printer for ultra-precise prints, working with technical materials such as nylon carbon.
After being printed in Italy at WASP’s headquarters, the shoebox was shipped to Adidas’s team. Following the 2023 Ballon d’Or Ceremony in Paris, the custom-made gift was handed directly to Lionel Messi by Adidas.

The overall box took more than 200 hours of non-stop printing. The creation of this product was made possible by the all-metal double gear extruders of WASP 4070 ZX, offering twice the grip and three times the force compared to common extruders.
Additionally, the patented Vacuum Active Control (VAC) system ensured the total absence of micro-moves during printing, and facilitated the extraction of the prints.
After printing the individual pieces, each part was assembled to create the full box. In order for it to work, every piece had to fit perfectly with each other. The top and bottom halves were later connected by a hinge conjunction.
