A firm grip makes you a man. The Talking Digital Hand Grip is designed to make your grip firmer and as a consequence, make you feel more manly. It will measure the strength of your grip and a female voice will announce your results. It will measure your grip force if it is anywhere from 8.8 pounds to 199.6 pounds. If you were out of that range, you would do better to test your strength by crushing apples in your powerful, masculine grip.

The Talking Digital Hand Grip is cheap and to be honest does not look that good. If you want a quality grip exerciser, you would do much better to go with a Gripmaster.

Price: $12.99

Price for a Gripmaster: $15

Update: we found two new reviews. Posted towards the bottom of review
Of all the reviews we have posted this has been the hardest. We have tried all our advanced search tricks, set up product alerts and still very few true reviews to be found. We found tons of sites talking about it but no real reviews. Needless to say this review round-up will be updated as soon as we find something worth posting. If you come across a review for the Adidas 1 please email us and we will gladly give you full credit for the find. Here is a short list( a very short list)of what we found. The Engadget review is the most complete review and has the best quote.

Engadget by Peter Rojas
“First off, these are quite possibly the ugliest shoes we’ve ever worn, no matter how fine they appear in the photos, know that they look far worse in person (we actually preferred the packaging to the shoes themselves).”


Josh Rubin
“So how did it feel running in these things? Great! The bottom line is that it’s a really comfortable, solid shoe. We played with the settings so I could feel the range available, but once I just let the shoe adapt to me, it just felt good. And that’s the point. You shouldn’t constantly feel the shoe adjusting, you should just be able to run comfortably over any terrain.”

update:
here are two more reviews to add to the list

AP by Frank Bajak via ABC News
“one particularly long run I hit that endorphin-juiced sweet spot where my legs seem to cycle like a flywheel, even as fatigue sets in, I felt the shoes assisting me.
I’d have to say that the harder the surface and the choppier your running style, the more a pair of Adidas 1 will help you.”

The Authour does make an interesting point:
“There’s a computer inside these shoes taking measurements. It can record how far I run, diagnose my style and perhaps provide advice. How to tap in for feedback?
With these shoes, there’s no way to extract the data.” Maybe Adidas 2.0?

Working Smarter (this site has two reviews: first impressions and The week after review. This link is for the week after review)

“My main gripe is the weight. This shoe is heavy, and after a long run of 2 hours on Sunday, I felt it towards the end of my run. It”s definitely not a shoe you want to run long hours in.”
