NASA report on Memory Foam Shoes
a fine example of how investment into the space program has produced new technologies to improve consumer goods. thanks to ar0cketman
Great-looking shoes with a built-in impact absorbing spring for pain relief. Haven't tried them myself, but they're *super* cool & sexy! Many thanks to ar0cketman for the find.
