Per-size demand and deep assortments.
Plan the full size run and deep assortments without drowning in SKUs — demand and replenishment by size, not by average.
- Stock the full size run in every door — a broken 9 or 10 loses the sale.
- Rebalance stock between doors before you spend on a new buy.
- Keep hero franchises in stock for years while capsules drop and draw down.
What strong footwear planning delivers
Size-run integrity, held across every door
Hero-franchise in-stock, at fewer weeks of cover
Demand met by transfer before a new buy is raised
Directional benchmarks for footwear planning, not a customer guarantee — audited results are in the story below.
Footwear multiplies every decision by the size run. Plan a style and you're really planning a dozen SKUs, each with its own demand curve — and the wrong split leaves you with broken runs nobody wants.
Every style is a size run
Demand by size is not the size curve you bought last year. Plan the average and the popular sizes sell out first.
Broken runs kill sell-through
Once the core sizes are gone, the rest is dead stock — and reorders arrive after the demand has passed.
Deep assortments, thin attention
Hundreds of SKU-locations mean the exceptions hide. The lines that need a decision get lost in the grid.

Plan every size, not the average.
One connected plan, with the capabilities that matter most for footwear doing the heavy lifting.
Demand forecasting
An ML forecast that learns from every channel signal — so the buy starts from real demand, not last year plus 5%.
ExploreAssortment planning
Build the assortment from the same plan — options, depth and size curves that match real demand by channel and door.
ExploreAllocation
Allocation that rebalances across doors first, then stages what's left — lead-time aware, demand-weighted, and tied to the plan.
ExploreReplenishment
Policy-driven replenishment that turns the plan into POs by supplier lead time — and only reorders what cover and open-to-buy allow.

The details that decide it.
The short version: yes, it fits your hierarchy, your stack and your calendar. Talk to us about your range.
Do you plan demand per size and per door?
Yes. Every size is forecast at each door, so replenishment protects the running sizes where they actually sell instead of averaging across the network.
Can you rebalance stock before reordering?
Tightly looks for a size sitting long in one door to cover a projected break in another, and only raises a new buy when a transfer can't.
How do you handle hero franchises vs capsules?
Hero franchises stay on cover-band replenishment; capsules drop and draw down on schedule, so replen stops before they turn into broken runs.
It shows up in the numbers.
“Our build plan and our demand forecast used to live in different files that disagreed by week three. On one model they reconcile live, and we build to what the market is actually pulling.”
Directional outcomes for a global made-to-demand maker planning demand and build to one signal.
For made-to-demand brands, top performers keep availability above 95% without building stock that waits months to sell.
