Tokyo, Japan – Sony announced today the development of smart surfing shoes designed to improve wave-riding performance.

The product targets both professional athletes and recreational users.

The smart shoes feature built-in sensors in the soles. These sensors track foot movement, water pressure, and body balance. Data is sent to a mobile app via Bluetooth. The app analyzes the information and provides instant feedback to users. Surfers can review their techniques and make adjustments in real time.

Sony collaborated with professional surfers and marine engineers during the design process. Testing occurred in oceans across Japan, Hawaii, and Australia. The shoes adapt to different wave patterns and water temperatures. Users can customize settings through the app for specific surfing styles.

A Sony spokesperson stated the goal is to blend technology with the natural surfing experience. The shoes aim to reduce injuries caused by unstable waves. They also help beginners learn faster by highlighting mistakes in their posture.

The shoes use lightweight, waterproof materials. Battery life lasts up to six hours per charge. They include a safety lock system to prevent loss in rough waters. Sony plans to partner with surfing schools and rental shops to expand access.

Production is scheduled to begin early next year. Pre-orders will open globally in December. Pricing details remain undisclosed. Sony confirmed the shoes will be compatible with other Sony devices, including smartwatches and fitness trackers.

The company emphasized environmental considerations. Materials are sourced from recycled plastics. Packaging will be 100% biodegradable. Sony plans to donate a portion of profits to ocean conservation projects.

Safety tests met international standards for water sports gear. Early testers reported improved confidence and control on the waves. Professional surfer Kai Nakamura called the shoes a “game-changer” for training.

Sony continues to explore wearable technology for outdoor activities. The smart surfing shoes represent its latest move into sports innovation. More updates will be shared ahead of the product launch.
