These shoes are called Moonwalkers, and they are changing the name of the game. The hi-tech shoes are expected to be released next year. The makers boast that these shoes will make the average person go 250% faster, especially good for urban areas where it doesn’t make sense to own a car. As more and more people are weary about taking public transportation, this is a great option for warmer weather.

Moonwalkers are not skates, even though they look like them, the company located in Pennsylvania said. “They’re highly engineered additions to your shoes that you strap on and walk at the speed of a run,” they added. Shift Robotics CEO Xunjie Zang went to study at Carnegie Mellon’s Robotic Institute and spend four years working on locomotion, then finally he solved the problem of slow walking. He used to take a scooter to work, then almost got hit by a car leading him to want another solution, hence Moonwalkers. You can get them next year for low price of $1,400, yikes.
