GadgetUniverse proclaims it the most advanced technology in footwear- “The only shoes that make you feel like you are defying gravity. Walk taller and with more confidence than ever! ”

Cool claims! When two friends bought it and then eighteen eventually followed suit, I knew I had to scope it out.

My browser gave me the lowdown:

Scientists investigating shocks absorption for buildings during earthquakes discovered a special polymer that was both light weight and absorbed shock and vibration. This material lead to the revolutionary material used in the Catapult MMXT3 Gravity Defyer Shoe. The researchers and the engineers behind the Gravity Defyer Shoe surprised the entire shoe industry when they launched the first of its kind energy reciprocating shock absorbing sole in a dress shoe nonetheless!

It was scientifically constructed with a hidden 1/8 inch shock under the heal that releases its reciprocating resistance power each time you step. As your weight changes to the balls of your feet, the hidden shock absorber generates upward pressure pushing your body upward. This mechanism gives you the feeling of jumping like a kangaroo (or some say feel like flying) each time you step with the Gravity Defyer Shoe.

Hey, how about that! Shoes with real bonafied shock absorbers that bounce.

Bill let me try out his Marseilles model shoes - and in the 30 seconds I used it I was a convert. They did bounce. I actually felt like flying- from leather shoes!

Not even the Nike Airmax 360 or the Adidas Bounce KG gave me this much power and comfort.

These are real springs that BOUNCE! And bounce with a BOING!

I kid you not: you’ll bounce faster and higher with these secret agent shoes than Shaq Attack in Air Jordans.

And the comfort. Sublime bliss. Better feeling than memory foam. It’s literally walking on air.

I almost murdered my friend to keep his shoe.
