Now, shoes that put a spring in your step!

London, Aug 10 : The newest range of footwear is surely going to give you a bounce - scientists at New York University have come up with new shoes for summer that guarantee to put a spring in your step.

The revolutionary footwear has been modelled on a cheetah's paw, reports The Daily Star.

Women who wear the summer sandals are bound to have time on their side as they are fitted with a spring in the heel and are specifically designed for extra bounce.

The designers hope the shoes, which mimic the cheetah's movements, will increase the walker's speed as well as reducing effort.
