While space colonization isn’t likely to occur in our lifetime, the space economy is booming (space suits represent a $20-$25 million annual market) and big name retailers like Reebok (ADDYY) & Y-3 (ADDYY) want in on the action. Reebok teamed up with space outfitter David Clark Company to release the first updated space boot in 50 years, the SB-01. The boots, which use Reebok’s patented Floatride foam, “will accompany the final space suit that will shuttle astronauts to and from the International Space Station”.
