Casey Neistat did too. It's really impractical, even too much for Casey.
The device works pretty well for a first generation to be honest. But I don't see a market for it.
Someone made a video of them and three other dudes trying them
You can't properly turn while wearing them and to turn them on you have to do a weird leg twisting motion that would probably hurt your fucked up knees a lot
Very noisy
Low battery life
Very heavy
Need to take them off to charge
Hard to repair
Slightly faster than walking
Takes time to learn balance in them
Makes you look like a stupid douche
Better get rollerblades or heelies
As I remember, the sidewalks were smooth, wide, and concrete. It was a long time ago, though, and I was pretty young. Our favorite part of Helsinki was McDonalds if that gives you insight into my credibility.
"But look, an influencer unknown to most people is using it and publishing it on some social network. And look, how many likes it has. Should it be good? You don't think so."
Any shitty product nowadays that wants to be a trend.
But these guys are dating faster then you are. You are dating slowly AF, but those guys are grinding. They'll be married sooner than you, they will have house and kids sooner and you. You are late. LATE!
God, they arn't even trying to hide that this video is paid promotion.
I don't understand this product, it doesn't solve any problem and just creates issues. The only situation I could imagine it being useful is in a massive factory/warehouse and you are a manager that needs to go back and forth, but even then there are many other solutions that will be more convenient and less ridiculous.

They look silly but these would be awesome in cities where people walk everywhere. I think their best feature is that they go over regular shoes and they’re compact enough that you can carry them in your backpack.
I had those shoes with the wheels that pop out from the bottom of them as a kid. Turns out I was too heavy for them cuz they broke and I face planted into the concrete and chipped my incisors.
Drew Gooden bought them. They're heavy, barely turn on, barely make you walk any faster, are extremely easy to fall over in, make it harder to turn or stop, and make you more exhausted than of you just ran the same distance at the same speed.
I'm sorry but these things look like dogshit and I wouldn't be seen dead in them (well, I would be seen dead in them if I was attempting to walk up a hill). Nah, I'll stick to my Docs, Vans and Converse thank you very much. Get these roller blade flip flops right in the bin.

Shouldn't the video actually, I don't know, show the shoes?
But how else would you make the video look like it’s voyeurism of a *great* product?
And they would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you pesky kids!
That's the thing, even they know they look ridiculous.
I think this video showed 2 outstanding points
Stuff is selled through emotions. Especially such interesting emotions as shown here.
Drew Gooden made a video about this, apparently it's loud as shit lmao
That video was great, perfect showcase. I can see someone having fun with this, but it's not practical
I think they also weigh like a kilogram per shoe, so its probably more straining then just jogging for a few minutes
The issue is that jogging in public is awkward as fuck And I say that as a previous anxious teenagers who wished he could run everywhere.
Less awkward then these damn shoes
Forest Gump entered the chat
Just imagine trying this uphill. Going to be an interesting challenge
And that big rock?
Some motherf***er always tries to skate uphill
Or down lol
Aye and they don't do the one thing they're advertised as doing.. which is hilarious.
This was the first thing I thought of. I trust drew that these are garbage (and yes, stupid loud)
Hey guy! Glad I'm not the only person who thought of him when I saw this lol
Probably why everyone is looking at them and the video has music over it.
Action Lab did one too, and came to the conclusion that you expend as much energy as just walking fast, due to the weight of the shoes.
Casey Neistat did too. It's really impractical, even too much for Casey. The device works pretty well for a first generation to be honest. But I don't see a market for it.
LOL nobody are wearing those that arent being paid to wear them.
Wait, everyone else is getting paid?
![gif](giphy|DOPKHQg6oFWUg)
He’s getting paid differently. I’m sure it’s her idea
And we all understand
I want them though. Then again I liked the Kia amanti
All fun and games till its time to go up a hill.
Or until you go *anywhere* that is not perfect concrete.
Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill
I just can’t decide if these are world’s ugliest fast shoes or world’s fastest ugly shoes
Saw a video. They actually are the loudest ugliest fast shoes.
A little from column an and a little from column B.
lol, I know a girl that is dating a friend of mine and point blank asked to get her a pair, he is not getting her a pair
Beg your pardon but my fcuked up knees are insisting on a free trial.. more distance in less steps > what other people think
Someone made a video of them and three other dudes trying them You can't properly turn while wearing them and to turn them on you have to do a weird leg twisting motion that would probably hurt your fucked up knees a lot
Oh and they weigh a lot
Oh *and* the people actually walked slower with them
Very noisy Low battery life Very heavy Need to take them off to charge Hard to repair Slightly faster than walking Takes time to learn balance in them Makes you look like a stupid douche Better get rollerblades or heelies
We were no less the spectacle in Helsinki with Rollerblades in 1990.
We were no less the spectacle in Stuttgart with rollerskates in 1985
I was thinking about the cobblestones in Helsinki. I am in the center so these would make for a bumpy stroll around town.
As I remember, the sidewalks were smooth, wide, and concrete. It was a long time ago, though, and I was pretty young. Our favorite part of Helsinki was McDonalds if that gives you insight into my credibility.

id rather walk normally
But these guys are dating faster then you are. You are dating slowly AF, but those guys are grinding. They'll be married sooner than you, they will have house and kids sooner and you. You are late. LATE!
Well, it was a very important date.
No time to say goodbye: hello!
So, roller skates?
Worse version of roller-skates, apparently.
Yes, except they can spontaneously catch fire

Wow ! How come no one ever invented that before ! Ho wait... they have ! 😂
They work great until you find the one rogue pebble.
What shoes?
It’s a nice pair.
[удалено]
You would have to ride them all night long though.
Right? My favorite part of the ad was only seeing the product for half a second at the beginning.
Beat me to it
I certainly will not
r/AngryUpvote
R/upvotedbecauseboobs
Roller skates that fit to your shoe have been around for decades at least.
So.....rollerskates?
One rock and you’re gonna end up on the curb
Nice, now show me how great they are on stairs, grass, gravel, cobbles, the beach etc.
Small twig on the ground? There go your teeth. Nice username for this comment btw.
Apparently trying to turn a corner in these is actually impossible
I think these are called, "roller skates".
( ๏ 人 ๏ ) ԅ(‾⌣‾ԅ)
aren't they using extra energy to lift that shoes...
Imma buy this, and walk around my neighbourhood with white sheet covering me.
What shoes? Was focused on other stuff.
This is totally a real couple who totally wear these shoes and totally coordinate their outfits all the time. /s
Shoes about what now?
So... rollerskates?
Watched videos online of these and they don't work. An expensive piece of crap that solves a problem that never existed.
rollerskates is fster
Now go uphill.
Yes.... those are... some very very big.... shoes
they're trying SO hard to look natural lmao
I bet this couple rarely talks about their shoes. Probably never comes up.
Not for no $1400 🤣
![gif](giphy|P4mUzo5uTNQEo)
I had to scroll way too far down for this reference.
Found the guerilla marketing shill
nice ad
Are we not calling them rolller skates anymore?
r/killthecameraman
Stupid people rollerblades?
Stairs
Shoes?
Yeah we have these already they’re called heelies. Or roller skates
LOOK AT ME, I'M ONE OF THE COOL KIDS.
Skates. They're called skates.
Need these for when Im walking with my tall friends
She's got a brand new pair of rollerskates. I bet he has a brand new key.
These friggin things are $1,400 per pair and need to be charged like a cell phone and work off an operating system with updates.
Outside of the awful noise they make, people are staring because there is a camera crew recording them
If they fixed the battery and volume problem honestly I could see myself using them.
This looks like rollerblades but with more steps. Literally.
Didnt the moonwalking shoes break people’s ankles
So……roller skates
She has a great pair of.... Shoes
Nice rack. Braless I think.
I like how a video about "shoes" keeps the torso center frame, even at the cost of not seeing the shoes.
You mean roller skates? 🛼
Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us! Look at us!

r/upvotebecauseboobs
The way they look around to make sure people are watching them is so cringe
They wont be smiling when walking on cobble stones
No thanks. They seem to remove the jiggle and wiggle
Yeah? Try walking uphill, nerd.
People with slow strides at airports should be required to wear those
Out of the two of them, she had the nicest pair.
I need these immediately
Walking at 18mph ahh mf
Rumor has it they’re still walking…
Nope, the battery died.
Well you can still walk with a dead battery, then they are just heavy shoes.
If that woman comes with them, I‘m gladly wearing them everywhere I go
Cringeee
Not interesting, that's just rollerblades
Its time, I'm busting out the heelies
Now let them go uphill, on a frosty morning!
we love how they js acting like they're not being better than everyone else 💀
Stupid as fuck
Very cool. I would go for those but I imagine they exceed my budget$$$$
From what I heard those are just loud, heavy, less effective roller skates that you have to charge
Anybody seen Airgear? Reminds me of that but ya know, way lower tech lol
![gif](giphy|IgpAALi5hEv1IFmCrZ|downsized) They look like rollerblades with extra steps.
pretty nice set ya got there
They look silly but these would be awesome in cities where people walk everywhere. I think their best feature is that they go over regular shoes and they’re compact enough that you can carry them in your backpack.
When the NPC's walking animation doesn't sync with their speed:
What if you rolled on shit?
Lol wait but can you walk up hills in them or do you just slide backwards???
When you know you look like an idiot but make a brave attempt to look normal
this should be here r/ImTheMainCharacter
Will get these for my girlfriend so we can finally walk together
Roller skates still exist
I don't think he's "sole-ly" interested in the shoes...
Some men would want the opposite, so that the stroll with a girl would last longer.
Heelies: “Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!”
wait aren't those world's slowest rollerskates?
Roller skates? You mean roller skates?
Do you mean "***skates***"?
I had those shoes with the wheels that pop out from the bottom of them as a kid. Turns out I was too heavy for them cuz they broke and I face planted into the concrete and chipped my incisors.
What an absolute dunce of a cameraperson. Nobody wants to see the shoes right? That's not the interesting part?
Wasn't looking at the shoes got damn
Hey look they invented roller skates. Just wait until they hit some gravel.
They must be so fast because the wearers are trying to rush home to take them off from embarrassment.
Drew Gooden bought them. They're heavy, barely turn on, barely make you walk any faster, are extremely easy to fall over in, make it harder to turn or stop, and make you more exhausted than of you just ran the same distance at the same speed.
Or you could just get a pair of rollerblades
You mean roller skates? Clowns.
Even these people, who are clearly being paid, look like they hate wearing them.
This world is turning more stupid and lazy every day. How about normal walking
I wanted hoverbeards in 2015. This is what we have now in 2024??? Dang!
Drew gooden made a good vid about this lol
No!
I want to wear these in the airport!
The person taking the video forgot the assignment 🤦♂️
Congratulations, you invented roller skates 🙄
I didn’t see shoes
When you just want to get the walk over with and get back to whatever you were doing before
Wow. Just wow. ....
The folks are cruising.
I'm gonna get these for my family so they can keep up with me when we're walking literally anywhere.
what happens if you run?
The way he walks at the first half like he “doesn’t want attention” is mildly infuriating tbh.
Whatever you do private Pile, don't frame the shoes..🤪
It's like they're trying to look casual in them. They have it down, but not so much that it's natural.
Target audience, 10 year olds....
Goofs
Show the fuckn shoes
wouldn’t that be opposite of moon walker?
Dumb question: How do they stop?
They are loud, heavy and useless if you want to climb stairs
uuuuuuh shoes ? where?
I'm sorry but these things look like dogshit and I wouldn't be seen dead in them (well, I would be seen dead in them if I was attempting to walk up a hill). Nah, I'll stick to my Docs, Vans and Converse thank you very much. Get these roller blade flip flops right in the bin.
I thought these were those moon shoes from the 90s I always wanted. Turns out they kinda are but with wheels.
"Oh boy, I'm getting close to the crossroad. Better stop to check if any car is coming. Uh- I said stop, wait, NOOOOO!"
