They come pre charged from the factory. Fart wherever you please with the quiet fan that will spit cologne everytime it detects a foul oder!
That takes care of the odor, but what about the sound?

Every time.:oops::oops::oops:
 
I actually like them.
A daily shoe,would have been preferred, with loosen during car driving or public transport

Companies nowadays don’t get the right use cases. Very strange people seem to work every where ....
 
Okay, here’s a prediction. At some point during a competitive event somebody wearing these shoes will suddenly trip and fall because the shoe adjusted itself loose. After an investigation it will be determined that the shoes were hacked by another competitor to gain an unfair advantage over their rival. You KNOW this will happen because... technology sucks.
 
If the soles lasted longer too great. $350 tech shoes that will still wear out. Hmm.

Now I will say I love the BOA system in my snowboard boots, that’s some great low-tech. If only they introduced BOA for my ice skates, that would be awesome.
 
Dude, people already get jacked (even killed) for their $150 “kicks”. What do you think will happen to people wearing these $350 shoes in public??
 
In a world with limited resources, we shouldn't be making **** like this.

I'm not anti-tech. But I think we should be thoughtful about what we buy/use.

Shoving lithium-ion batteries and motors into a pair of disposable shoes is obscene.

For professionals, it's one thing...

...but if I see 15 year olds and fat ****** who don't play any sports - let alone basketball - wearing these then I will weep for the world.

Interesting, but it's a solution to a problem that doesn't really exist. We're pretty good at adjusting our shoes manually.
Really? What did people say 50 years ago about automatic transmissions? A problem that does not exist?

This is just the beginning guys.

Imagine you have your hands full, can easily slip into your wide open shows which sense the pressure and close/tighten up automatically. And when you come home, they sense the charging mat or a sensor and open automatically again.

So many possibilities: Leds, warning lights in the night/traffic, analyzing your every step, vibrating with new messages, massaging, electro stimulation, heating, cooling, ... :):cool::D

Maybe your world has limited resources, not mine!

I don't like them but you're right.

There are use cases that make sense:
Seniors or injured people that can't bend down to lace their shoes. I herniated a disk and experienced that for three weeks. I would have loved those shoes then.
Ski and snowboard boots that you relax on the lift and then tighten up while you're riding. However there are quicklace systems that work as well.
 
Whats the next item I will have to charge? My underwear?

Of course! If you're, say at your new girlfriend's house meeting her mother for the first time, you'd like something to control the appearance of possible arousal.

And maybe at other times in a club picking up women, you'd want to enhance an appearance of girth, and tighten those glutes.
