Josh Rubin says these wacky space shoes, supposedly designed for use by cosmonauts, promise to be “the next major accomplishment in footwear engineering,” but I don’t see it happening. Can you imagine trying to play basketball in these? Or walk through snow? What kind of astronaut can’t play snow basketball? I’ll grant that they’re kind of neat to look at, but unless there’s some major point I’m missing, like the shoes serving double duty as a go-anywhere sex pocket, I can’t imagine the average people giving a flip.
