In this paper, we briefly review the recent progress in comfort fitting using elastic polymeric shape memory materials (SMMs). First, the required features on elastic SMMs for comfort fitting are discussed. A few types of polymeric SMMs (including some commercially available ones), which have these features, are presented. A number of prototypes made of these SMMs are used to demonstrate the feasibility to achieve the concept of comfort fitting in a one-for-all manner, i.e., one sized product to comfort fit any individuals.
