I believe that the shoes are only meant to cushion the landing of a jumping player. There are four columns of dense foam in the heel. Foam cannot really give much force to push something back up. Only a metal spring could do that, that is why they don't use foam in things like pogo sticks. I tried on the shoes and ran in them...like all 20 feet I could across the store...and did not feel like Tigger, but they are really comfortable. They are made of all leather so they hug your feet. My feet are picky, so I am thinking about investing $150. for some. Of course I would have to paint/ polish the heel black because it only comes in a silver material.
