Limpert Tech on iHeartRadio 12/19/22 - Monte Deere, CEO of Kizik

Rick talks with Monte Deere of Kizik this week.

Taking off your shoes at the end of the day or putting them back on the morning after the first day, can feel like you are tasked with climbing Mount Everest. Your hands and back just don’t seem to want to cooperate to get your shoes on.

So Kizik shoes feature a patented heel design so all you have to do is slip your toes into the shoe, the heel will compress so your foot can slide all the way in and then once your foot is in, it will spring back into place securing your foot in the shoe.

You need a pair of Kiziks.

What coming in 2023 for Kizik? What makes them so popular and more with Rick and Monte.
