New Footbag shoe? - Feelmax www.feelmax.com

Well if you can bust janiwalkers and barflies on top of mountains in them, they gotta be legit. Check it. Hey BTW, Jim and Daryl is it too late to cancel the Quantum 3 order I just put in today? ;)

something about the toe surface gives me the stink eye. It looks too smooth and slippery like a puma sneaker. I give it a :arrow: :? . But the video WAS very cool and I appreciate feelmax for doing it.

That is a great ad. Makes me want to buy some!

...but then after a little investigation work, the price of those bad boys, in Euros is 69.90=$95 USD if I'm correct.

Now, since that didn't deter me, I checked shoe sizes and in Mens they only go up to size 46 in euro, which for me would be 11.5. :x

On the plus-side I would think they shred great. "Light-weight(each shoe weighs less than 100 grams), printed-removable insole (huh?), heel strap to make putting on easy"

they claim it simulates walking barefoot. Can it simulate shredding barefoot with shoes? 8O

check out their site. It contains some cool info on feet.

yes, his name is on the youtube video if you click "link".

sick commercial! I'm glad to see footbag getting out.

I don't think this is a footbag shoe...

if I can do janiwalker with a funkix footsac, then juho can do janiwalker with a footbag and those shoes with no problem ;)

I think it's great that footbag is being used commercially like that! It's good for baggers to get some mainstream work.
BRICK!

I won't consider these as my new shred shoes, but I might get a pair just for walking around.

You are correct, it's Juho Marjo shredding in the video.
The shoe itself isn't designed for footbag but is a very good shoe for walking and other outdoor activities. I'm glad you like the video, we had fun filming it although Juho wrecked his ankle a couple of times. The ground surface was pretty horrible for shredding.

I will post a high quality version later today in the video section.
