Tandem shoes are a pair of shoes designed to worn by two
people at once. In style each shoe resembles a two person
canoe, whilst in use the second person walks or runs in
perfect harmony with the person in front. They have several
applications, many of which are pure fun, but one of which
is
to provide an effective walking exercise experience for
those with atrophied muscles or suffering from MS.
The same principle can be extended into ice skates, and
roller blades, for anyone who cannot have solitary
enjoyment of these activities for various reasons. Positioned
either to the front or back of a more physically articulate
partner, like the neophyte parachutist strapped unto the
expert, they would glide around sharing every sensation.

A little more desricption please. Is it just the right/left shoe that is tandem, like a three legged race? Or is it both shoes one behind the other? If it is the latter, I see major complications with being so extremely close to the person in front. For example, when you run you swing your arms rapidly, and if you were that close behind the person you would probably punch them in the head. |

So I guess that would give new meaning to the phrase, "No, I will not let you do it! I am putting my foot down!" |
|

"I met him at a party and my heart stood still - da do run
run run, da do run run..." Extremely close - that's the
whole point - you can both wear the one large coat with
big sleeves and hold hands - it also says EACH shoe
resembles... - try to keep up D.R.B.C. or you'll be pumping
the bilges on that boat. |

Well I was hoping that I misunderstood it, or read it wrong, because being 3" behind someone at all times isn't what I would consider fun. Either being punched in the back of the head whilst running, or being in the back while the person in the front has gas problems, I'll go solo. |

Maybe I could see tandem clown shoes, at least then you'll have a foot clearance. Pun not intended. |

Good for ski practice or toughening up for treking. |

On a bicycle tandem, it is a common trick for the rear rider to slack on the pedalling on steep hills and allow the front rider to take the strain. |

It occured to me as I was following my girlfriend up a particularly steep mountain path this weekend, that it would be great if we had been wearing tandem shoes and I could have sat back and she could have pulled me up the steep pass.... |
