Shoes of the future

The time we live in calls for significant simplification. We are slowly getting used to a life associated with smart devices. More and more our smartphones are interconnected with our daily lives. What may be the developments as regards tying of shoelaces?

A luxurious piece for sport and technology enthusiasts!

Nike Adapt BB are luxurious sneakers, which surpass their current limitations. Owners of these beautiful shoes now only need a smart phone with a mobile application - FitAdapt. The name of the shoes is not here by chance, Adapt expresses capacity of your feet to adapt and the BB designation is derived from basketball.

"We chose basketball deliberately as the first sport to apply the Nike Adapt technology because of the demands that athletes place on footwear," said Eric Avar, Vice-president Creative Director of Innovation.

Tighten the shoes by one click

The Adapt BB model should greatly facilitate its owner the handling of shoelaces which will now be controlled directly from the phone screen. In practical terms this means that one click on your smartphone will tighten or loosen the laces. One small thing though: remember to regularly charge the shoes! Each pair will thus be sold together with a special charging mat.

The luxury novelty by Nike will be available for sale in the USA from 17. 2. 2019. You can order them in the American market and their price is equivalent to CZK 8,000.

The inspiration was a movie

The shoes, inspired by the film Return to the Future 2 will charm you, they are designed for basketball players. If you don´t know which film scene they were inspired by, here is a little help: the hero, Marty McFly, is putting on a similar pair. Can you guess now?

With the coming Chinese Year of the Pig, we‘ve decided to interview Mrs. Katzerová, an owner of a famous Prague pig, Karkula from Prague 5, and also the co-founder of the Czech club of owner of domestic pigs. The following 5 things will be a surprise to you!

1. They have a matriarchal system

We were wondering if pigs had any particular type of behaviour or traits. ‘Surprisingly, they have a matriarchical system. The more dominant, headstrong, and difficult to ‘domesticate’ are the girls. On the other hand, the pig boys are easier to deal with. They’re malleable, and ‘docile’. Pigs in general, are territorial animals, and they aren’t used to letting strangers or other animals near them.’

2. They are more intelligent than dogs

Pigs have a greater intelligence than dogs. They don’t like to be dominated, and they use their intelligence for their prosperity. They’ll never cooperate or listen in the same way that we’ve become accustomed to with dogs.

3. Luxury ‘mini-pigs’ don’t exist!

You may have come across the term ‘minipig’, but Mrs. Katzerová says: ‘The word mini is misleading. Every pig will grow up one day! We generally consider a minipig to be a pig, which weighs up to 140 kg in adulthood (5 years). An adult minipig weighing 10, 20, or 40 kg is a FANTASY!!!’

4. They aren’t stuitable for kids

Did you also think, that a piggie would be an ideal pet for children? Mrs. Katzerová says otherwise: ‚We don’t recommend piggies as pets for children. The reason is pigs can be a bit clumsy, and they can hurt children by mistake. It’s enough when an eighty kilo pig steps on a bare foot of an adult, or when an adult male pig rubs its tusks on a calf, which can lead to a painful accident.’

5. It costs as much as a dog

A pig costs from around 1. 000 to 25. 000 Kč. The cost of feeding an 80 kilo pig is similar to the cost of feeding a small dog. Yearly veterinary checks cost around 4.000,- Kč.
