Retro Ad – June 1984 – Etonic Quasar
Until 1999, No One Else Can Make A Shoe This Good.
The Etonic Quasar was a very popular shoe when it was available since many people liked the Rear Foot Lacing System. This particular ad goes into detail on Etonics’ many patents such as the Dr. Rob Roy McGregor Foot Cradle, and the Dynamic Reaction Plate. Take a closer look.
If you had a pair of these, let us hear your story in the comments below.

I had a pair when I ran track in HS, so many years ago, I cannot recall a better shoe. I can remember the first time I walked around in them, it was like walking on a cloud. I wish I could get a new pair just like them.

Great to hear, this was a very popular shoe at the time because it was so comfortable.
