C-5/C-6 Incomplete Quadriplegic - 2017 Nike Ease Challenge Shoe Prototype Submission

This video from 2017 was part of my submission to the Nike Ease challenge as a top 15 finalist. I talk about my adaptive design journey and how I came up with this shoe prototype. I also demonstrate how to take the shoe on and off and how this design would benefit Nike from a sales perspective.
If you have any specific questions or comments about this shoe prototype please leave a comment below or email me at [e-mail]. Thank you for watching!

What an amazing video my friend! You are a bright and full of energy! This video inspires me to want to make more videos on my channel which I haven’t done in over a year. And I think at the end of the video it sounded like you said Beaverton which is not too far from me, As I live in Seattle! May the Lord bless you, and protect you and watch over you and your loved ones… May God bless us all and protect us with his mighty power and with the full armor of God! I am definitely going to check out all your videos, and I think it would be pretty cool to chat sometime soon!

They don't, but I'm sure we'll see something similar at some point. I'll push for it!
