$ 7.88
- The instructions were… extremely lackluster, to say the least, as “Put straps through slots in sandal” is literally most of the instructions for this product. You’ll be better off looking up a youtube video if you need assistance in putting them together… I did, because I thought maybe I was putting the straps in wrong, comparing the picture on the box to my nearly finished set. Turns out, once I had them assembled and was strapping them onto my shoes, I found the straps to be barley adequate for my size [USA] 10&1/2 (wide) feet… as in they were almost uncomfortably tight when attempting to secure the spike sandals onto my shoes. I suppose next time i can try a pair of pool shoes instead of my ‘lawn sneakers’… but still, the straps could totally be at least another inch longer… or give people the option to order a set with longer straps, for those of us who don’t have ballerina feet.Overall the product works as described… I found myself able to pierce my lawn with relative ease, though as others have noted, some of the spikes did come a little loose while stomping around my lawn… probably from where I was hitting spots with clay-like consistency… though even then it still took minimal effort to get the spikes to bite into the ground.All in all the product arrive quickly albeit with annoyingly meager instructions, and ‘just enough’ strap length for my not-so-big feet. Plus, an added bonus, now my neighbors probably think I’m crazy… marching around in my yard like I was doing some methodical stomping fit.Would recommend for the price… simple to use and cheaper than other lawn aeration options, plus free cardio in the pleasure of your own yard… put that in your pipe and smoke it, Covid-19 lockdowns!
