Fashion comes sometimes with new technology. A company called “Shift Robotics” in Austin, Texas, has created a pair of shoes that accelerate your walk.
Inventor and founder Xunjie Zhang stated that they are not skates. You don’t skate in them. You walk. Thanks to an intuitive AI drivetrain, the shoes adapt to your gait. There’s no new skill to learn or complicated technology to understand. They’re not something you lace up and wobble away on – they’re highly engineered additions to your shoes that you strap on. It’s like having a moving walkway…on your feet.
Moonwalkers™ are the first-ever mobility device that allows you to walk at the speed of a run.
What is that to do with Michael Jackson? Nothing except the name and also the way it looks when you walk with those shoes: Like when Michael Jackson does his Moonwalk!
The tag price for those amazing technologically advanced shoes is $1,399.00 which you can purchase here.
The company and owner did not mention any relation with the King of Pop, however, Michael Jackson fans will relate this product straight away to Michael. Also, they have trademarked the name “Moonwalkers™” which might upset the Michael Jackson fans that call themselves just that or those who are using that term.
