does anyone have a pair or know anyone that does? Do they work? I saw some the other day as I want to casual shoes for walking round in and thought what a great idea but am not keen to spend that much money if they don't actually do what they say they do.

Thanks heaps for any input

I was looking at getting some but also would like to know if anyone has used them & if they liked them first.

I rang up the NZ number for them & was told that you can not run in them as you will fall on your face. Now I am not a runner but I used to break in to a little jog when out walking with the pram so not sure if they would be good for the big walks.

They work on the balance ball principal.

So you have to use your core to help stabilize you as the soles are not flat like a normal pair of shoes.

I wouldnt fork out that much money ... you might as well get yourself a duradisc for a fraction of the price and stand on it while watching tv.
