World’s Fastest Shoe Promises Increased Walking Speed of 7MPH

Robotic engineers have unveiled what they claim are the world’s fastest shoes. They come with 8 wheels that increase your walking speeds by 250%.

“Moonwalkers” strap around your shoes and propel you forward using tiny electric motors that power weight wheels, mimicking roller skates.

The shoes increase walking speeds from the average 3mph up to 7mph and will cost $1,399.

The shoes are powered by battery cells that fully charge in 1.5 hours for over 6 miles of range.

And as you walk, the AI-powered algorithms learn your moves to provide natural walking motions.
