Shoes that defy gravity



The Moon Walker:





Introducing 20:16 MoonWalker, the gravity defying shoes with a modern and urban style. These unique shoes have two layers of strategically placed N45 magnets. The magnets are slim yet very powerful and face each other to create a repelling, anti-gravity force. The result is a lightweight walk that makes you feel like Neil Armstrong. The 20:16 MoonWalker shoes are ultra comfortable with their memory foam soles. With each step you can feel the foam contour to your feet. The interior is made with DuPont Tyvek synthetic polyethylene, the same material used by NASA. These shoes have no laces for easy on and off practicality yet they remain secure with a padded non-slip tongue. Experience the moon without leaving your town with the 20:16 MoonWalker gravity defying shoes.


When we dared to take those first few steps? 
We found ourselves standing there with only one way forward. Even though success was uncertain, we realized the world lay at our feet and, with that, lift off! 
In the early days, one of our designs was Marta Pietrosanti's (who has her two own shoe brands and also worked for many major brands in sportswear and fashion like Ferrari , Masnada , Mountain Affair, and Studio Cocchi  technical drawings.
That was the biggest thing we had ever done—a new adventure where the sky was the limit. But then we grew up. Perhaps we feel like we have left that all behind. 
Until now…
The moon-walking sensation comes from two layers within the shoe. Each layer is made up of powerful N45 magnets that are strategically placed so the north poles face each other. This creates a repellent force, which leaves you light on your feet and happy as an astronaut. 






The final touch is a comfy sole made from memory foam that hugs the unique shape of your foot, making it the perfect fit to moonwalk your way through life. 
How will MoonWalker bring back the exhilarating feelings you experienced as a child learning to walk for the first time? The secret lies in some pretty amazing technology.



Hidden beneath the incredibly durable yet soft and breathable fabric, under an inner sole of comfortable memory foam, rest two separate layers that hold something you definitely wouldn’t expect to find in a shoe.
Embedded inside are slim, ultra-powerful N45 Neodymium magnets. These magnets are generally used to lift anything from massive barbells to cars. Strategically positioned in the shoe, the magnets repel each other and push the layers apart. The result? A force field that keeps you suspended in space. Of course, a lot has gone into the research and development of this product.




We've done numerous CAD blueprints, prototype after prototype, tweaked and tested everything, including grip, magnetic power, breathability, durability, comfort, and street performance.
The outer layer is a smooth synthetic fabric in gray and white gradient featuring a padded, non-slip tongue. The inside is a DuPont Tyvek synthetic polyethylene, which is the same material used by NASA on their space station modules.
