The First Step Tracking Smart Shoe: TRAQ by Alegria Has Arrived!

If you currently use wearable technology to track your steps -- such as Fitbit or Motiv -- then you know how important step tracking can be when it comes to your overall health.

With that being said, as wearable tech evolves -- which it does at a rapid pace -- consumers are frequently on the lookout for new and more efficient ways to monitor their steps while they walk, run, and jog. Enter TRAQ, by renowned comfort footwear company Alegria; the first step tracking smart shoe!

With TRAQ, you never have to worry about leaving your step-tracking device at home, because the technology (known as the Q-Chip) is embedded directly into your shoe.

What's more? As long as you have a smartphone, you're always connected via a user-friendly mobile app; allowing you to monitor precisely how many steps you've taken from the moment you put on your shoes to the moment you take them off.

Alegria Comfort & Support With Sophisticated Technology

For those already familiar with Alegria footwear, you can rest assured knowing TRAQ step tracking shoes offer the same level of comfort and stability as the brand's other flagship styles.

The difference, however, is in the sophisticated Bluetooth technology, which is embedded in the sole of each TRAQ shoe. With the renowned Alegria footbed insole -- supporting your arches and keeping your feet fully supported -- each TRAQ style is guaranteed to be one of the most comfortable shoes for standing all day at work or your daily walking routine.

If the need to constantly plug in or turn on your step-counting device has been a drawback in the past, you can rest assured knowing the Q-Chip never needs to be charged and is always tracking your footsteps 24/7, 365.

Synching the Q-Chip to the TRAQ by Alegria App

From the moment you take your TRAQ by Alegria smart shoes out of the box, you'll be able to quickly connect them to your smartphone by downloading the easy-to-use app; no matter if you have an Apple or Android device.

Syncing the TRAQ Q-Chip to your smartphone is as simple as opening the app, and tapping on an image of the shoes you're currently wearing. From there, the app will begin instantly tracking and analyzing your footsteps; it's that easy!

The best part? If you happen to own multiple pairs of TRAQ step tracking smart shoes, the app allows you to easily toggle between them all; ensuring your steps are always being recorded no matter what pair you choose to wear for the day ahead.

Sharing Your Progress With The TRAQ Community

By far the most unique feature of the entire TRAQ experience, is the ability to share your progress with your friends, family, and coworkers.

Studies prove, we are significantly more likely to focus on our health when we are encouraged by our peers and family members to do so. This is why having access to the TRAQ Community -- through the app itself -- can have such a positive impact on, not only reaching your step goals, but keeping those around you motivated to reach theirs.
