Fantastic concept, but sparse on details. Flexible funding and lack of a physical prototype definitely make me hesitate. I REALLY want this not to be vaporware.
@ykguler Sure - Indiegogo has a reputation for hosting projects that fail to deliver, meaning that backers have no insurance in contrary to Kickstarter where project are way more screened. (cfr. the Laser shaver). Backers can report the project and Kickstarter will take action.
I.e. I backed a project on Indiegogo that only raised 10% of their money and never got a reward, caused by the fact that it is not a "success" or sink model, but "best effort" approach.

@orliesaurus I see.. Well I hope this project meets its goal, its not the power-laced shoes from Back to the Future but still cool!

Who wants to start taking bets that this ends up on Kickscammed?
I keep checking back to see if it has been pulled... nope... up and up. Like a slow-motion train-wreck, but instead of injuries it will just be 2000+ people (maybe) learning something about crowdfunding and skepticism.
I'll eat one ShiftWear shoe if they ship anything like they have rendered by this time next year.

I would love to connect with the developers. I have a product that this concept goes well with.
