Kangoo Jumps XR3 Model (Black & Yellow, Large)

Top qualité !

Dommage qu'il soit difficile à trouver d'authentiques Kangoo Jumps. Elles sont vraiment géniales, et nettement meilleures que les copies chinoises. Attention, elles taillent un peu grand. Donc prévoir une pointure légèrement en dessous pour les tailles françaises.

I am bone to bone in several places in one knee. I have been since I was 21. I am now about to be 37. I haven’t been able to run or jump in 16 years. I was apprehensive about getting these do to the great chance that I wouldn’t be able to do them without pain. I love them! I highly recommend them. You will not regret it. They do require some balance and getting use to but all is well worth the challenge. I have seen the negative comments about the clips. Mine have done the same as others have stated to some degree. However, if I just loosen it one notch. They lay flat and without forcing. I am so grateful for this invention/ design.

My wife loves these things! Durable even for me being 255lbs! Comfy Too

PROs: I tore my left meniscus 9 months ago and had to stop running as I could only get a block before excruciating pain made me limp back home. My knee hurt just getting out of bed in the morning or walking around. I hadn't run for six months when I decided I would try a fancy knee brace in order to return to my favorite exercise. In order to be even a little effective, the straps on the brace had to be so tight it hurt. And my knee hurt more afterward. I returned the brace and got some XR3 Kangoo Jumps instead. The first time I used the Jumps, I was in less pain, and I noticed my knee was only bothered if I let my left toe rotate forward and down (probably unique to my meniscus tear location). Anyway, by avoiding that toe-down orientation, which isn't hard due to the curved tread on the Jumps, I was able to eliminate the pain. The jumps take a little getting used to. It is hard to stand still in them but no problem if you are moving. The boots only bounce if you jump and come down with your full body weight in one foot. They aren’t bouncy when walking, for example. The second time I ran I only felt a twinge of pain a couple of times, again with an accidental toe-down step. I noticed that my knee, instead of feeling worse after running, was actually feeling better. No more pain getting out of bed or walking around the house! The next time I ran, there was no pain at all. I had started to regain some stamina, and I WAS ABLE TO SPRINT for the first time in 10 months. I was flying! I can't recommend these weird boots enough. They have given me back my favorite exercise, improved my meniscus, restored my conditioning and improved my outlook, all for less than a trip to the doctor! The idea that my meniscus would actually get better faster using the Jumps makes sense as exercise increases fluid flow around the joint. Physical therapists recommend exercise to the point of discomfort with a minor meniscus tear. With the Jumps, you get the exercise and no discomfort! One more thing for runners, the boots are fairly heavy, maybe half as heavy as regular downhill ski boots; however, once you get going, the weight doesn't matter because it is offset by the spring. Great workout in a short period of time!CONs: 1. When booting up, some of the boot clips won't lay flat and you have to wiggle them or bang on the clip to get them down.2. After a long run, I have some sore spots around my foot. To be fair, I haven't worn heavy socks as recommended.3. People stop you and want to know what you are wearing, interrupting your run! ;-)Update: the build quality is very high. I have had nothing break or wear out after months of use. The clips not laying flat isn’t an issue: it only happens if you have the ratchet too tight. Use the release and try again. My left ankle still rubs and can be painful. I now stuff an old sock around the sides of my ankle and I can go for miles.Once you get the hang of it, the workout is intense. The boots can coax you into running faster than you might otherwise and in no time you are spent. Going up steep hills is a challenge. Going down steep hills takes some getting used to. You can walk, jog with short steps, or run with giant strides if you are young and fearless. I have never fallen in them. A couple of times my boot has slipped on a pebble.Still answering questions from people everywhere I go. I’ve turned so many people on to these boots, I should get a commission! 😉

Great way to exercise by removing all impacts. A lot of fun to use! Very comfy, fast delivery and fair price.

LOVE LOVE LOVE these. I can jog again! No more painful knees. They take a little practice, but then .... oh so fun!!!! I'm 55 and feel like a kid playing!!!

Buckle defective:(

I like it, but rarely have time to get out and use

Fab my grandson is love in them great for fun exercise

Fun. But not good for your back and loud! Not comfortable. And did I mention they are loud.. They are better for legs as far as impact but I was more expecting they would fit better like a pair of rollerblades. Kangoo jumps still have plenty of work to do before they are perfected for the price they charge.

Love this! Took some time to get used too (one week of bouncing 20-30per day). I have had both Acl's replaced in my right and left knees and I don't have pain in either after I bounce. Be very careful and bounce on flat surfaces. I bounced on a tiny rock the other day and didn't loose my balance but I am really watching out for them now. I don't know that I would recommend these for a person with hip problems though.
