Gravity boots, or short GraviBoots, are footwear with inbuilt gravitational technology, allowing the wearer to move on surfaces in otherwise forbidding angles and maintain ground contact in absence of gravitation. Gravity boots have a "reverse" mode, in which the effects of gravity are dampened, negated or even inverted, depending on the setting, allowing wearers to virtually "float" along a surface that would otherwise have inhibiting gravitational pull or even perform jumps to incredible heights. Gravity boots are not ordinarily capable of providing directional repulsion from a vector other than that of ordinary gravity - in other words, while it is possible to invert the gravity pulling one towards the surface of a planet, and hence "fall" upwards, it is not possible to direct the fall

| - Gravity boots, or short GraviBoots, are footwear with inbuilt gravitational technology, allowing the wearer to move on surfaces in otherwise forbidding angles and maintain ground contact in absence of gravitation. Gravity boots have a "reverse" mode, in which the effects of gravity are dampened, negated or even inverted, depending on the setting, allowing wearers to virtually "float" along a surface that would otherwise have inhibiting gravitational pull or even perform jumps to incredible heights. Gravity boots are not ordinarily capable of providing directional repulsion from a vector other than that of ordinary gravity - in other words, while it is possible to invert the gravity pulling one towards the surface of a planet, and hence "fall" upwards, it is not possible to direct the fall to an angle perpendicular to the planet's gravity, for example forward or sideways - only "up". Should other vectors of movement be desired, additional means of propulsion must be carried.
