This article describes the compatibility of clips and chargers through three generations of Stryd footpods
The Stryd footpod has evolved over time. The original footpod was in distribution from January 2018 to June 2019, Stryd with Wind Detection was in distribution from June 2019 to September 2022, and the Next Generation Stryd footpod will enter distribution in late 2022. Each footpod has been sold with shoe clips and a charging device.
Stryd Jan 2018-June 2019: Device typically sold with a wireless charging pad and two shoe clips. These chargers and shoe clips are not compatible with later models. The footpod clipping mechanism and charging system was changed in the next version.
Stryd Wind June 2019-Sept 2022: Footpods sold with a wired charging cradle and two shoe clips defined by a wind port and wider rear clipping point. The wired charging cradle is compatible with all Next Generation Stryd footpods, and some later editions of the original Stryd footpod that included copper electrodes on the bottom of the footpod case. The clip design will fit with the Next Generation Stryd but is not directly supported by the Next Generation Stryd.
Next Generation Stryd Sept 2022-Present: Footpods sold with wired charging cradle and two shoe clips defined by a silicone rubber surface where the footpod and shoe attach, as well as all the defining features of the Stryd Wind shoe clip. The charging cradle sold with these devices is compatible with Stryd Wind as well. The shoe clips sold with the footpod iteration are fully compatible with the Stryd Wind footpod as well.
