The systems, methods and apparatuses described herein provide a footwear hydraulic system for harvesting power generated by pressing a foot on a surface and providing a cushion for the impact. In certain aspects, a hydraulic system for a footwear may comprise at least one chamber with a first and second compartments separated by an elastic membrane. The first compartment may be filled with gas and the second compartment may be filled with liquid. The gas may provide impact cushion and transient energy storage, and the liquid may pressured to push a generator to produce energy. The pressure may be generated by pressing the footwear on a surface and/or the elastic membrane of the chamber trying to restore its shape.
