Easy. It's called self-censorship. Or it's a nice, subtle subversion from GTN - "never shit where you eat!":). Nevertheless, the spray-on tech is amazing but not in any way saving the planet or sustainable. These shoes need a lot of tweaking to become running functional. But for yeezy clubbers and Fyre Festival shape cutters - it's a match made for Instatok
@@ArtyShat people forget there's the cost of R&D (especially since this is innovative technology), cost to design and build the 3d printing machine, design and build the design printing machine, cost for the time and expertise of all the employees involved who have been commited to develop this technology. these are costs that add up into the millions, and this is all before a final product is finally ready to be set for manufacturing. Imagine the costs to transfer all this and make machines that are now production ready machines which in general cost alot more and require alot more time to build and design than a R&D machine.
@@Shvhxli this company is not big enough to gamble millions of investments in such a thing, I can assure you it was not in the millions, if you saw behind the scene video, its just a robot arm, and they use a filament that is already been used for many years by other companies, they didn't invented anything new, they are just hyping the product to sell as many as they can, once they will get their investments return, do you think they will start selling at a real value of the shoe? no, they will keep selling it at 300$ so please don't justify this capitalist companies with "r&d" crap
At first I thought it was just a marketing gimmick, but the aesthetic actually looks pretty futuristic (in the good sense) and nice. Wouldn't mind rocking one of these someday.
Love that the idea came from seeing a Spiderman web toy. Not many people could see how it could be applied to a shoe. Great minds behind this. I hope it takes off.
Impressive tech and application. When this becomes the norm in building sneakers, am sure there won't be anymore problem or question of fit issues. As an add I believe any garments that can be woven this 'light spray' tech will be able to perform.
Hello, I really like your content, it's great. I would like to ask you, honestly, what do you think of this shoe because I'm thinking about it for when it's available again. In terms of reactivity and running economy, do you think it's top-notch, even if it's deeply different in structure from the main competitors such as vaporfly, metaspeed, alphafly, adidas evo endprlhin elite,etc? Which do you think it's similar to or is it a really different running experience? I'm interested in knowing the real benefit this shoe can bring to the athlete in terms of time and running economy. Thanks again
That's amazing technology! I'm curious how fragile this upper is, and if it is something that could only work for road running, or if it is solid enough to bring to trail running.
I am really curious if this technology will be utilized in more ways: Thicker layers to make: Work shoes, (still lightweight and possible low co² output) A workout gym shoe, If the layers can be made thick, hiking shoe possibilities? Waiting for the future.
I dont get it. Why aren't you scanning the foot and making the base and upper on a quick disposable custom last? What are you using as a last here? How does that match the bones in the athletes foot?
#coachescorner I’m looking at getting a new pair of running shoes and with all the talk of carbon shoes and these spray on shoes I was wondering how important is it to get shoes that support your running gate? When I brought my last pair I got my gate analysed and was told I over pronate so brought shoes with support in the areas to help that. But when looking into getting some higher spec shoes it doesn’t look like all of the shoes offer this support, should I buy insoles for my shoes to help, should I just keeping looking for shoes that offer support or do I just try and adapt and get used to running without the support? I want to be able to run an iron man marathon comfortably and don’t want to be hindered by my choice in shoes
The function of the upper part of a running shoes, is to lock down your feet to the sole of the shoes and create a feet/shoes unit. This seems tooooo flexible too achieve this.
Love the concept but always hard to determine if that makes sense for an average joe. Any way to have comparisons like in the cycling world with some kind of shoe power meter to look at the perf/HR/lactate/perceived exhaustion for a given power over a given distance? Talking out of my ass, no idea if there is such thing on the market. Anyway, great video!
High end watches have a running power meter, but it is obviously not as accurate as a good cycling power-meter. They estimate power based on your speed+gradient+vertical oscillation+ground contact time (+ your weight, of-course, but you have to set that yourself).
This is funny because until very very very recently they have just made fashion shoes and their running shoes have been total rubbish. Losing the 'Cloud Tech' gimmick looks like a good shout. Interesting to see what this recent push into genuine performance produces....
Looks terrible, i bet it feels just as same. Btw, there is nothing sustainable in a shoe that costs that much when people who buy it need to use very unsustainable ways to earn that money... Thanks for the effort anyway, appreciate your work, keeep up.
It’s not elevating the athletes performance it’s an ego boosting technology that does not physiologically improve the human’s performance….sure they run faster but that’s technology….next up springloaded stilts…running is on the wrong path…just like golf…there is nothing in learning the art of running with good technique..or hitting the ball on a small dime shaped sweet spot…fool the human in believing the are faster or better….fwiw
@@Artemis-v8i dude we are going into an era where world records are like wiping our butts daily this is not human physiological progress it’s technological if you don’t understand that I do not know what will….the art of competition is lost and world records is the soup du jour….and god knows where this will end…I am sorry I coach running technique and this is altering the gait cycle into something else….you don’t have to run barefoot but I think the running industry needs to take a close look at where they are heading…..again this technological advance is only ego boosting….nothing else…
