Tony is working with another company on a Parkour shoe, seems this time they are serious about it. Several people out there trying out a similar shoe to get feedback for the new prototype.

They are not the intended to be PK shoes, just a shoe made by that company that will help build the actual PK prototype based on our feedback.
That is about all we know.

Right now we are testing the Springboost Iguanas not the Carapace that will happen later on after they gather the data.

alright thanks for the replies guys. i was worried that the whole project was just abandoned. when they come out you can definitely expect me to buy a pair. and VD23 you said the shoe wouldn't be like the concepts you posted? if you don't mind me asking what changes were made then?

I was there at the beginning guys. I had stuff to do, but I passed out some shoes and hung out for a sec to watch. I want to go sometime over the next few weekends and tag along :)

Jacob- I am just starting the design process. I need to get the testing feedback before I can really make the best decisions about how to build the shoe.

You amaze me dude.  ;D

All the traceurs who were testing them have sent in the info about the shoes so they are working on it. Ask Tony (VD23) if you are curious about the process.

That's probably one of its biggest selling points, even though few people will ever admit it.
