Re: Pogo shoes
Do you have any other infomation on yours? I've only ever seen one other photo on the internet of these a few years back, but couldnt track the owner. I imagine it was a sample run, and they opted out fearing potential law suits. Haha. Probably an inventor dad.
Re: Pogo shoes
It's hard to know if I would be interested in buying them without some sort of provenance, same problem I have.

Re: Pogo shoes
I've been looking on and off for 20 years, but this time I'm using facebook, thats how I found yours, so if I have anymore luck I'll let you know. But if yours ended up in the US and mine were in NZ and the cost of the tooling even for the spring and platre are any indication, they were a limited production, or at the least an advanced samples. Or a rich dad inventor with access to so pretty cool resources blew a lot of dough on the idea. Cheers.
