NNormal About To Launch Kboix

Announced on Instagram with:

Sign up for early access to the Kboix01 preorder (limited stock) at the link in our bio.

I linked here to the Instagram announcement as I couldn’t find the relevant link in the bio of their Instagram account. What I did find is the link to the product announcement:

The NNormal Kboix 01 is a modular, multi-sport shoe designed with three interchangeable midsoles to adapt to various terrains, intensities, and body types.

Will be fascinating to see how this futuristic design will hold up in the real world. And maybe even more so what the launch price will be. Do you think it will be over $300 for a pair?

While I’m talking about NNormal, I really appreciate their new repair program:

Partnering with the global network of Vibram-certified cobblers, we now offer free minor repairs on all our shoes.

If you want to view the link to the repair program overview, be sure to stay on the country specific pages of France, Italy, Portugal and Spain, where the program currently is offered. This does make me think of how often I replace shoes due to issues with the outer part of the shoe, like the soles. Usually I consider a pair of shoes to have run its course when the foam feels dead or the inside, especially the heel cup is torn to shreds.
