Rapid prototyping and
problem solving
Leading the way in sports innovation, from sports protective wear to motor sports parts and beyond we are manufacturing high performance high impact bespoke 3d printed pieces.
Built to absorb ball-and-stick impacts on the metatarsal foot area, Megatarguard™ offers mission-level foot protection that fits any sports shoe. Ultra-lightweight and movement-friendly, it gives you the confidence to stay in play while the game hits hard.
Engineered protection.
Proven performance.
At Design Vertex, we developed the revolutionary Megatarguard™ to meet the growing need for advanced in-play protective wear, helping athletes stay safe and perform at their best. Through a proactive approach to injury prevention, Megatarguard™ significantly reduces the risk and impact of sports injuries while maintaining the flexibility and comfort required for high-performance play.
Grassroots testing on the international stage
Megatarguard™ has been rigorously tested across a wide spectrum of athletes, from grassroots clubs to elite competitors. Our guards were proudly worn at the Paris 2024 Olympics, where they proved their strength, comfort, and reliability under world-class pressure.
Each design iteration is informed by real feedback from athletes, coaches, and medical professionals. We ensure every piece of protection is as functional as it is innovative.
Continuous innovation, globally
With athletes around the world now using Megatarguard™, we continue to expand our research and refine our constructions. Every guard is engineered using industrial-grade 3D manufacturing and high-performance materials, creating a perfect balance of safety, style, and precision fit.
As popularity grows, we’re inviting new partners, teams, and athletes to join us on this journey to drive the next wave of sports innovation.
We continue to expand our research and refine our constructions. We are currently working to develop motorbike racing protective parts and car racing replacement parts, through our rapid prototyping, in collaboration with racing teams and engineers across the country. We are excited for the custom builds that 3D printing is able to engineer and the advancements it is making.
What our clients say…
