People who bought these are fucking idiots and they deserve much worse then their stupid fucking smart shoes turning into abandonware.

Maybe we wouldn’t have so much shit in landfills if those idiots didn’t gobble up any piece of trash someone wants to sell them.

I could see handicapped people being interested in these. Fuck then I guess right.

Sure. We totally didn’t have footwear that did not require lacing. Thank god for the tech bro solution. What would the disadvantaged people do if it wasn’t for the free market!

Btw, you really think their app was accessible to handicapped people?

Why choose these over elastic fabric slip-on shoes?
