Speed Go Hands-Free Technology
Shoes that put themselves on
That forgotten minute of putting on your shoes — the morning scramble, the last obstacle before you leave, the burden when you get home tired. AJL technology exists to erase it.
How it works — 3 steps, 0.5 seconds
- 1Slide your foot in at an angle. The wide, guided opening aims your toes exactly where they belong.
- 2The heel compresses. The flexible heel structure folds down as your foot passes — no hands, no bending, no crushed heel counters.
- 3It springs back and locks in. The heel instantly rebounds to cradle your foot securely, ready to walk, run and live in.
-005 · V-Guide Stability System
A flexible V-shaped patch at the heel, made of high-strength material with deliberate space left on both sides to bend. It delivers roughly 3× the support of an ordinary heel patch, with a fast, clean rebound. Repeated folding tests fine-tune the rebound angle and force, so the structure guides your foot in smoothly and never collapses in use. Found on most Walking Max and Walking Pro styles.
-009 · Ring-Wing Adaptive Frame
UP-material and TPU film fuse into a frame that surrounds your heel like a ring. High elasticity bonds the shoe body to the heel frame so it adapts to the way you step in, springing back to embrace and stabilise your heel from all sides. Found on the YC005-10, the Sagacity Stride YC005-17 and the Outdoor Max YC011-2.
