    Article about a $250 a pair Addias shoes

    You have to read that article to the end to find out just
    which shoe-characteristic they are going to make variable.

    It sounds like they will be varying the cushioning
    hardness/softness using a "steel-cord" tensioning system?
    I'm not clear whether there are separate forefoot and heel
    cushioning adjustments, or whether only one of these sectors
    will be variable.

    I would think this shoe might be heavy, with steel in it,
    and batteries and switches and sensors (?).

    Are there any issues whether this shoe would be "legal" in
    competition?
