    How about getting a roller skate???

  3. Nathan

    December 29, 2022 at 11:00 pm

    Question…Why?

  4. ehrichweiss

    December 29, 2022 at 11:00 pm

    It seems to me this is a glorified pair of roller skates, and honestly you could modify a pair of roller skates so that the wheels had a racheting action so you could only move forward and probably do more than these things.

    For me, this does not feel like a useful product. I enjoy walking or cycling for longer distances and I already have other options like scooters, not to mention public transport and driving

    Nothing about the range or battery life? Seems like a pretty big oversight

      I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or crypto and stocks.

      You’re right,Even with the current dip in the crypto market for me Crypto trading is the best investment anyone could get into. As it could make you rich in a blink of an eye.

  11. dondrap513

    December 29, 2022 at 11:42 pm

    Should have had the speed walker try them. What happens if you run in them? What’s the range?

    Also, instead of being strap on, they should clip in to the bottom of special shoes with recessed cleats, like spd shoes for cycling.

    Great invention!

  13. Editz👍

    Why not just rolled blades or skates… you get more control, probably cheaper, faster, more versatile…

  28. Temporal Soliton

    December 30, 2022 at 5:43 pm

    Interesting and fun tech. It is difficult to see a profitable public market for these but it could possibly find some partners in warehouse or military settings.

  29. Phlincke

    December 30, 2022 at 6:01 pm

    they’re just electric roller skates

    I interviewed with this company for an internship! They gave me an assignment after I interviewed with them (I would say it was about medium difficulty). I asked them what the point of the assignment was, and they basically admitted that it was a feature that would be useful to them later. I completed the assignment, demoed it to them fully working, and then they rejected me.

  31. Antonius Weezel

    December 30, 2022 at 6:26 pm

    Seems useless in American cities given the pedestrian density, but here in Europe or for long walk commutes could be a good option, where you can stick to quieter streets for speed

  32. Screambmachine

    December 30, 2022 at 7:58 pm

    2:20 why are there cuts?

  33. Drym

    4 feet stopping distance? Pretty bad considering my normal feet have 0 feet stopping distance

    It bothers me that at 0:43 the transformation happens at the peak of the jump instead of when landing. The visual and audio do not line up 🙁

    These are quite cool. But, if they’re intended for The average casual walker but they will purchase them and attempt to walk down stairs and die.

    Just rollerblade already.

  45. Common Sensei

    December 31, 2022 at 12:15 am

    $1400 for shoes that will inevitably break and need a mechanic to repair? I’ll pass.

  46. Strategic Life

    December 31, 2022 at 12:25 am

    Interesting tech, but why use this over a penny board or kick scooter?

    Those are faster, much cheaper, more reliable, more efficient.

    They also don’t depend on fancy tech that can fail, and Lithium batteries that degrade over time

    The heavy weight of the shoes also means stepping with them is very inefficient, where as wheeled methods stick to the ground, so you’re not constantly lifting them up and exerting energy

    The electronics also means it has less user control and nimbleness as opposed to a penny board

  47. christopher

    “speedwalking”, that’s just running with your arms tight.

    Man that’s jus a new version of roller skates 😂open toe skates and they think they invented something new 😅

    Just get an electric unicycle for commuting, it is faster and also very easy to transport.

    So is it really a “test” video or a promoted one? 😉

  54. Bob Bob

    December 31, 2022 at 5:38 pm

    That’s a high heart rate for jogging at that moderate pace over that short distance. You should exercise more without those shoes.

    Surprised to see a company would advertise luxury items in an economy that’s in such bad shape that literally the entire consumer discretionary sector is being decimated as we speak. Who has the money to spend $1400 on lazy shoes when inflation is so high that people can barely afford rent?

  58. Des Jones

  76. Jonathan DeVries

    January 1, 2023 at 5:33 pm

    i dont think these should or could be integrated with non-augmented pedestrians…in the cities when there are crowds moving everyone needs to be moving at relatively the same speed…

    You should have tested them by going to a place you wouldn’t usually walk to, maybe a supermarket that’s a mile away. Only then can you actually feel if these shoes are a QOL improvement.

    Test against roller skates?

    So basically roller skating then…. My roces quad skates in the 90s were faster

    The twist is, it ends up being harder to walk with these shoes because it’s like walking with bricks on your feet.

    you mean roller skates

    Are you ok, Annie?

    If you told ten years ago that I would be riding scooters, I would have laughed. Now I own 4 of them and put 1500 miles this year LOL

    Their niche is filled by rollerskates, scooters, and skateboards. They’ll cost a lot more than them too

    What about going down hill

    Wow who thought they would make the easiest form of exercise easier? Just shows how lazy our world is

    Why do people need to walk faster? I feel this could be useful but not for the reasons mentioned. Maybe for people who can’t walk very fast because of a condition and so on. But for able people, just walking is kinda fine already?

    Your jog was .12 miles and less than 1 minute. Your hr almost reached 150bpm. I highly highly HIGHLY suggest you see a doctor and get checked for problems with your cardiovascular and/or respiratory system. That is a very high heart rate for very minimal exertion. I suggest you follow up with your pcp – Nursing student.

    Why are people obsessed with making more devices to make us lazy?

  154. Daniel Dekker

    No tests on stairs? That feels like such an obvious test that you must have been not allowed to show that. Let’s see someone walking up to, and going down the stairs to the subway without breaking their neck.

    Can we all just take a moment to talk about Dean/Deen’s walking? Imagine seeing that at night?😭😂😂😂😂

  162. Wiggles

    January 5, 2023 at 1:01 am

    It’s an interesting idea but I’m highly skeptical. Terrain we walk on is very complicated. I agree that they might have narrow, specific applications but I don’t know about them being as ubiquitous as cars.

  163. Rob Jones

    January 5, 2023 at 1:02 am

    I see this as great for indoor spaces. I also see this as a face plant machine for rough terrain.

    They wont beat crocs sports mode tho.

    So isn’t speed walking just running at the point the speed he was going speedwalking

  172. Clark Potter

    As soon as I heard, “They communicate to each other with Bluetooth,” I thought, “You’re gonna die.”

  173. J Dog

    January 5, 2023 at 1:23 am

    The biggest take away for me is that speed walkers are just even gayer looking joggers.

    And when the battery’s out you end up with a 10kg weight on both shoes making you 50% slower.

    They have an autonomy of at least 60km though?

    Will you roll backwards on a hill?

  180. Jesse Faltus

    January 6, 2023 at 12:54 am

    I’m not seeing how this in any way better than roller blades?? Roller blades are an order of magnitude cheaper, require no batteries, aren’t as complex, and would probably share the same problems on stairs, etc as the Moonwalkers. I’d love to see the developers or anyone here to convince me otherwise, but this seems like a gizmo for the sake of having a gizmo.

    Speed walker at 6 minutes no way, that means I wouldn’t overlap him on the track doing a 5 minute?

  188. Harry Toeface

    January 6, 2023 at 1:01 am

    I’d absolutely love a pair of these. It would help me a lot. I have been in a lot of car accidents all of which I was a passenger. I have panic attacks because of it and this would help me travel without need for driving…

  189. Ryan Vogel

    January 6, 2023 at 1:07 am

    Are they gonna replace the Sonic workers roller skates?

  190. Hugh Jass

    January 6, 2023 at 1:07 am

    Or you could just keep the motors on the whole time and make electric heels which would be way cooler

  191. Dnmeboy

    January 6, 2023 at 1:08 am

    By run did you mean jog? I feel like you blew that on purpose to make the device look better. The speedwalker looked like he was running though.

  192. Steve

    January 6, 2023 at 1:10 am

    It sounds like a great way to deal with the last mile in public transportation

  193. H4TX

    January 6, 2023 at 1:12 am

    As a kid I always wanted shoes that could make you jump like spiderman but this is also good.

  194. Larry Manning

    January 6, 2023 at 1:13 am

    I feel like that guys speed walk was just barely slower than his run. If the difference between walking and running is having a foot on the ground at all times then I think this guy was running. He was definitely catching a lil air in his stride.

  195. Tejaswi Gururaj

    January 6, 2023 at 1:14 am

    Hey where Chandler Bing.

  196. moblife

    Lol that guys hardly speed “walking” he’s jogging… Lol

  197. Levelonesucks

    January 6, 2023 at 1:26 am

    Lol what a waste of time and money. The market for these will never be nearly big enough to justify their development

  198. That Guy Joss

    January 6, 2023 at 1:26 am

    5:25 you didn’t put the other speed

  199. That Guy Joss

    Speedwalker just starts running 🤣😂🤣
