Man, I got all excited when I read the headline for this video, but it’s just a buncha people amazed at how much better their feet feel after changing their shoes at CES. The shoes don’t actually defy gravity and I have to imagine that there’s an astronaut or two that would disagree with their weightless claims. Nonetheless, these people seem “genuinely” thrilled to be wearing the shoes with hidden 1/8-inch springs under the heals that release reciprocating resistance power each time you step.
I wore a pair of Clark’s Desert Trek shoes almost the entire time I was at the show and did just fine. But if you had sore feet walking the floor or just want to stop and tell people about the springs in your shoes, maybe pick up a pair at GadgetUniverse.com. They sell a lot of other gadgets on the site too, in case you’re looking to avoid actually working this morning.
I found your page looking for an actual review of these shoes for someone like myself who is on my feet 10 hours a day and felt to leave you a note. Did you actually think that some engineer was able to finally defy Newton’s Second Law of Motion in shoe form? All these things are suppose to do is give you extra cushion and a bounce in your step. It’s the same as beer commercials claiming hot chicks will want to show up and have sex with you simply because of your choice in lite beer or those weight loss ads with people who have lost 350lbs while drinking chocolate shakes — you know that is all BS, but it’s built on a product that might work a little better than its competition.
The Gravity Defyer are amazing comfort shoes, I am addicted to this shoes, i had to wait 25 days for the shoes but in was worth it.
I received a pair of gravity defyer sport shoes and am THOROUGHLY disappointed. The shoes fell far short of the outrageous claims made by the retailer. Sure, the heel bed is comfy, but not $130 comfy. The toe is way too narrow and chafes my toes. The insole stains my socks red and black. I do not feel like a “kangaroo” or “flying” and indeed, there is no upward push that the shoes exert on the feet. The pressure valve is too small and creates a tea-kettle effect, causing the shoes to whistle with each step. In short, they are nothing but an over-priced gimmick. Furthermore, I have never seen such poor, shoddy customer service as I have seen at gadgetuniverse. Zero stars.
How much do you weigh?
I tried these shoes and spent $200 on their top of the line. Oh boy.. I love these shoes, they are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. I walk a lot daily, and I’ll never wear another pair of shoes again. I’ve already bought my 2nd and 3rd pair…they are worth the $$$$.
Where do I start? I first was looking into the z-coil, because a friend recomended it to me. It was’nt a good looking shoe.I have developed flat feet, and boy when you have flat feet, you tend to be more tired, I used to come home tired needing to take a nap, I’m 30, so i felt wierd that i had to do this. I recieved my casual shoes and the moment I tried this shoes on I notice my foot was in the proper position, in the first few hours walking on these shoes i felt great. The next day i wore them, I felt great, I also notice that my ankle felt stronger, the next day, I am now afriad to wear my other regular shoes. Once you try this shoes, you would not want to buy anythinge else. The price was 100.00 and other shoes go for more. It is worth the money, If you live with pain, there is no price to your health, plus with the energy you have you can work longer at work = more money = more Shoes = active life style. Highly recommend these shoes, and will try the z-coil in the future, because gravity defyer does not have boots at this time.
The shoes are a joke the springs came through the bottom and made me trip so be ware,
I got then for a trip to Paris and with in one month the springs came out. I was unaware until they got caught in a elevater
I am going to see a lawyer
Only thing worse was the company that sold them do not deal with Gadget universe
Terrible service the worst i have ever had
