Quikiks™ is a New York City footwear company that has developed the first fully-supportive, completely hands-free shoes. Its built-in Step-in-Go™ technology enables the back of the shoe to open wider allowing the individual to just slide their foot into the shoe which then automatically closes and secures once the foot is in place. Similarly, a reverse kick of the heel on a hard surface opens the back of the shoe allowing the wearer to slide it off hands-free.
Through its on-line marketing efforts, Quikiks seeks to reach people with disabilities and their caregivers, as well as diabetics who want a shoe with features to accommodate foot swelling.
