These battery-powered kicks can increase walking speeds by a whopping 250%, Kurt "The CyberGuy" Knutsson reports. Are you tired of walking at a sluggish pace while everyone else zooms past you? Well, buckle up your shoe game because we have news that will knock your socks off. An innovation in the world of footwear has arrived - shoes that can make you walk 250% faster. Yes, you read that right, these shoes will have you blazing past everyone else on the street faster than you can say, "where can I get a pair?"

How are you supposed to keep on the trillionaire crypto mogul grindset when you have to do something as mundane as placing one foot in front of the other to get to your next high-flying presentation? Well, here comes Shift Robotics to revolutionize the process of movement humanity has relied on for at least three million years. Looking for all the world like the Fisher Price roller skates of the '80s and '90s but for grown-ups, the company claims its "Moonwalkers" allow users to "walk at the speed of a run" but without all the unseemly sweating and hyperventilation. Think of that groovy sensation you get when gliding along a travelator at an airport, silently mocking passers-by walking at a regular pace who have not yet ascended to godhood. Yes, that, but attached to the soles of your feet.

Robotic engineers have unveiled what they claim are the world's fastest shoes - footwear designed with eight wheels that increase walking speeds by 250 percent. Called Moonwalkers, they strap around your shoes and propel you forward using tiny electric motors that power weight wheels, mimicking that of roller skates. The shoes are the brainchild of a team of robotics engineers at Shift Robotics, which thought of the idea when the founder started walking to work and realized powered shoes would dramatically cut his commute by more than half. This is because it increases walking speeds from the average 3mph up to 7mph. The team markets the tech, which retails for $1,399, for those'who have the need for speed' and see's Moonwalkers as the future of walking.
