About this deal

Google got me really excited as initial opinions seemed to suggest that Moon Shoes were suitable for people up to 230lb and UK shoe size 7. (That’s EU size 41 and USA size 9). When my our Moon Shoes arrived, I realised this was not the case with the UK version. The boot is constructed with a thin rubber outsole and cellular rubber midsole covered by nylon fabrics and using polyurethane foams. Company founder Giancarlo Zanatta, after watching the lunar landing and being inspired by the shape and technology of the astronauts' boots, drew sketches and then began to design and develop the original Moon Boot. Tecnica registered worldwide the trademark Moon Boot name in 1978. Moon Shoes are for children aged 7 years and over. They have a weight limit of up to 130lbs. What is in the Moon Shoes Box? First, you need to decide how many bands you will need to use which the instructions indicate will depend on the weight of the user as follows: The included instructions (pictured below) clearly state that Moon Shoes are suitable for persons up to 130lb. (That’s 9 stone 4lb in old money, or 59kg, if you prefer). Shoe size wise, the maximum sizes are: UK size 7.5, EU 40.5 and USA size 8.5.

The Moon Shoes are designed to be worn with your own shoes. You simply slip in your feet and tighten the velcro straps and you’re ready to go. Moon Shoes are mini trampolines for your feet full of anti-gravity jumping fun. They are great for getting the kids active and help develop balance and coordination. What Age are Moon Shoes for? Before you play with the Moon Shoes you need to attach the shoe straps to the bases using the provided bands.At first look, the Moon Shoes looked complicated to put together, however, once I started it was quite easy. Moon Shoes have been a big hit with both of my children. They have enjoyed playing with them individually and together and each time they play they seem to find new games to play, such as setting up obstacle courses and trying to skip.

A sketchy solution to ADHD

They are a great toy to get the kids active and I love that they have also been used in imaginative play and are an ideal summer toy. Where can you buy Moon Shoes?

How many elastic bands you use depends on the weight of your child, which is worth bearing in mind if you plan to use them withmultiple children who weigh differently, as you will need to adjust the bands to suit. They are a fab way to get kids outdoors though – especially if you don’t have a garden yourself. You can always take these to the park, or even bounce on them inside. Be mindful of the neighbours if you live in an apartment though. So Can Adults Wear Moon Shoes? I was really surprised that you have to assemble Moon Shoes. Call me naive, but I didn’t imagine having to thread up to 36 rubber bands through various points, before bouncing could commence. My advice to anyone embarking on assembling them is to follow the instructions clearly, and to wear gardening gloves to avoid catching the skin on your fingers.Syd said Moon Shoes were harder to bounce on than her real trampoline, but they were good fun. She said it was hard not flexing her foot, as the velcro straps stop you going up onto your toes. Syd said it was more tiring bouncing on the Moon Shoes compared to the trampoline too.

In 2004, they received exposure through the nerdy protagonist of the 2004 film Napoleon Dynamite. [2] [4]

What are Moon Shoes?

As mentioned above Moon Shoes are of Character Options campaign to get kids to Stay Active this summer with a range of toys that can be used both inside and out. Not only can the Stay Active range help reduce screen time and time prevent a sedentary lifestyle, but keeping active can help improve overall mental wellbeing, balance, coordination and stamina, as well as social skills, self esteem and confidence. Being more active can also help everyone get a better night’s sleep and what’s not to love about that?! Once you’ve constructed them, they won’t fit in the box they came in, so you can’t really assemble them ahead of time for birthday gifts etc. The number of elastics you put on will affect the answer to the question, can adults wear moon shoes? The more bands, the higher the weight limit. Bouncy Fun Users are cautioned against jumping indoors with the strap-on, especially on their beds to achieve a ‘double jump’ effect—and believe me, they added this instance from a real case study . They are instead advised to use these shoes outdoors and on hard, flat and non-skid surfaces like a driveway or on a carpet. Not very reassuring to be honest, given the fact that high bouncing thrills come with their own risks no matter how sure-footed you are. You can save your mattress for sleeping instead of doubling it as a make-shift trampoline, but at what cost? My partner and I are sadly both too heavy to have a go on these and I have to admit I was a wee bit jealous!

Moon Boot is a snow boot brand first created as après-ski wear in the early 1970s by manufacturer Tecnica Group of Giavera del Montello in Italy. [1] History [ edit ] It didn’t take Syd long to get to grips with the Moon Shoes… She took them out into the garden and was bouncing around in no time! Ok Ok… So there were a few wobbles to begin with, but she was soon posing as she bounced!Once we’d navigated her ‘clown feet’ down to the garden, Erin started bouncing around, falling over fairly regularly as got used to the sensation and tried to keep her balance. However, as we all know, what goes up eventually comes down. Does the pavement outside your apartment look tasty? Does the very thought of losing your teeth while skinning your knees and twisting your ankle sound appealing? If so, get your feet into a pair of moon shoes today! Apart from the fact that trampolines—the parent who these mini offsprings are trying to emulate—are known to cause 100,000 injuries every year, the instruction manual of the product itself issues various warnings that are subject to personal risks.
