"The Roamer" is the first shoe to integrate the outsole and hands-free tech seamlessly in a way that is both functionally original and aesthetically beautiful. The shoe is also incredibly versatile and comfortable. The patented outsole solution known as "Unified" offers the consumer something super convenient and aesthetically bold. The way it works is the phylon arm that extends around the heel flexes down when the user steps on it allowing the foot to enter, once the foot has entered the arm springs back securing the heel and unlike a slipper, gives the user a tight and fully secure fit.
