Before you buy
Where to buy Shift Robotics Moonwalkers
Shift Robotics sells Moonwalkers directly at shiftrobotics.io, and MetaOriental links out to them rather than selling the shoes itself. Moonwalkers cost $1,399.00 a pair. Shift Robotics makes two versions — the original Moonwalkers at about 5.2 lb per shoe and the lighter Aero at about 4.2 lb — so check which one a listing means before ordering.
Who Moonwalkers are for
Moonwalkers suit people covering long distances on flat pavement, such as campus, warehouse, airport or city commutes. The shoes top out around 7 mph and cover 6 to 7 miles per charge, and Shift Robotics recommends a rider weight under 220 lb. Moonwalkers strap over shoes you already own, and the motors read your gait, so you walk and stop normally and take stairs on foot.
Are Moonwalkers worth $1,399?
Moonwalkers cost more than most electric scooters and go slower, so the case for them rests on not having to park or carry a separate vehicle. Each shoe weighs about 5.2 lb, which matters once you take them off and carry them. Moonwalkers are built for smooth pavement — gravel, grass and broken sidewalks are outside what they handle well, and anyone whose route includes much of that should look elsewhere.
