Normally, sneaker restocks are something you don\u2019t expect anyone other than hypebeasts to get excited about, but it\u2019s a bit different with Nike\u2019s hands-free shoes. While praised for its accessible design, the $120 Go FlyEase has also been notoriously hard to find for the people who would benefit from them the most.<\/p>\n The Go FlyEase<\/a> made a splash when it was first introduced thanks to its bistable hinge. The design allows the shoe to switch between an \u201copen\u201d and \u201cclosed\u201d position, making it possible for someone to simply step into the shoe without having to use their hands. The issue was Nike didn\u2019t handle the launch well. A combination of limited availability and hype led to resale sites marking up prices to over $400 from the original $120 price tag. Those with limited mobility shared their difficulties<\/a> finding the shoes on social media, which then led to Nike being accused of using accessibility as a marketing scheme<\/a>.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t help that new versions of FlyEase tech tend to also be limited editions \u2014 if they\u2019re even available to the average consumer at all. For the Beijing Winter Olympics earlier this year, Nike designed the ACG Gaiadome FlyEase Boot<\/a> for Team USA. The boot could be put on one-handed and was designed for those who may have limited dexterity. However, while the rest of the Team USA gear was available for purchase, the FlyEase boot was an athlete exclusive.<\/p>\n
