Best Aerator Ever!!, August 11, 2008
By ShaneC from Mars Hill, NC

"We looked EVERYWHERE for Aerator shoes and these were the BEST. We live in the mountains where the soil is hard red clay, nothing helps to grow a beautiful lawn better than these. We just strap them on while doing yard work and after it rains you can see the results from a properly watered lawn. You won't be disapointed!"

Aerater Shoes, October 19, 2009
By Sker from Indiania

"For the money I think they work fine. My neighbors get a kick out of watching me try to walk in these things. So recommend aerating at night."

not sure how well they work, but will try again, July 22, 2009
By lawnboy101 from North Carolina

"they are an inexpensive alternative, but not sure how good they actually aerate, the straps are a bit tricky to get right, and they could probably use lock nuts on the spikes, because they get loose and become more trouble than work, all that said, i will probably give them another shot and see if there's any improvement in the lawn"

Aerator Shoes, July 20, 2009
By ReneLA from Los Angeles, Calfornia

"I was hesitant to buy this product but since I was desperate to revitalized my grass, I tried it. It was a balancing act the first time but eventually I got the hang of it.. It was much easier to use than the "push aerator" I bought for 3 times its cost. I also noticed an improvement on my grass after the first week. I'll recommend this to people with "good legs" and able to balance themselves."

Aerator Shoes, August 12, 2008
By Candy from San Diego Ca

"Great Idea- but poorly made. The shoes were very flimsy and made out of cheap materials. One of the straps broke on the first use.
The spikes started to rust within a couple weeks.

Next time I will just make my own.

Clumpy, August 11, 2008
By Amchwi from Central IL

"Once I placed the order for these aerator shoes, I couldn't wait to receive them. I had read a review where a customer used these each time he mowed the yard and thought they were the wonderful, so I was convinced they were going to be great to use. That was not the case with me. They were very difficult to walk in. When I would penetrate the ground with the shoes, more often than not, I would pull out large clumps of dirt with the spikes. Also the bottom of the shoes would quickly become clogged with clumps of dirt, so I repeatedly had to sit down to remove the compressed dirt from the bottom of the aerator shoes."

Needs custom adapting to fit large shoes, May 29, 2008
By pickenspilot from Upstate South Carolina

"Straps are too small for my size 13 shoe. Found that using self tapping screws to attach sandals to the bottom of my boots worked very well. Two into heal lip and two up into soles at edges of the ball of foot. Sandals are very much more secure this way than with straps and can easily be removed by backing out the screws."

Aerator Shoes, April 21, 2008
By LawnDoc2 from Washington DC Suburb

"Easy to assemble. Fit well around sneakers. They seem to work well and aerate the lawn well when I am mowing the lawn, but they do increase the work of walking. You have to take some exaggerated steps to walk more easily. Will not use them every time I mow the lawn, but periodically when I have the time to walk at a leisurely pace around the lawn. Best used when raking or doing some slow paced activity."

Aerator Shoes Field Test, April 15, 2008
By ItsAMansWorld from South Florida

"I had heard of Aerator Shoes before marketed through another retailer so, when I added these to my catalog purchase recently I was eager to try them out on my lawn first.

I worked them over my yard for about an hour and a half... got some good exercise to boot. I left town and returned about a week ago.

After about 2 weeks i can definitely discern a difference in overall grass root spread, division and growth that i attribute to the stimulation given by the action of the aerator shoe spikes.

don't like them, April 5, 2008
By njjoe from new jersey

"The straps in the illustration are not exactly what you get. The straps are difficult to place on a pair of shoe because they don't hold properly. Not an easy product to use."

Lawn Holes, October 15, 2007
By Dabbith

"These sandals are well built and include the wrench to tighten the spikes. They were easier to walk in than I was expecting. Walking in them feels like walking through mud. I generally use them while mowing the lawn to make sure I walk on all parts of the lawn. Overall, a very inexpensive way to aerate your lawn while getting some healthy exercise at the same time."

Inexpensive Exerciser, July 10, 2007
By RonBo from UT

"If you want to build up your leg-mucles and have a small lawn area to aerate, these shoes will do the job. Once you get the straps adjusted to fit (there are several ways to route the straps), the learning curve for walking in these is relatively short. The metal spikes are numerous and long enough to penetrate into the root system of most lawns. However, I wouldn't try mowing an entire backyard with these babies strapped on!"

Aerator Shoes, March 6, 2007
By thw01 from Gloucester, VA

"This product works good on small yards. I slip mine on when I am seeding the yard, cutting grass with the push mower or fertilizing the yard. After a good rain the shoes will penetrate the yard better."
