Adidas Cellphone Looks and Feels Like a Sneaker
More collectible novelty then serious contender, Adidas introduced a branded cellphone that resembles an Adidas sneaker. The backside of the clamshell device is textured like a rubber treaded sole, while the front of the phone dons the classic Adidas stripes, looking much like the top of the classic Adidas sneaker. Outdated? You bet. But if you’re an Adidas freak or even just a pop culture lover, this $80 Adidas clamshell is a neat little gadget to put on display for... Continue reading
Shoe Shovel Eliminates Hand-to-Poop Contact
I love handling dog feces just as much as the next guy, but it’s the smell I can’t stand. Using my hands, the smell gets a little to close to my nostrils for comfort. The Shoe Shovel eliminates any hand-to-dog-feces contact, leaving you, if all works out, relatively scentless. I know, I know, there’s nothing quite as fulfilling as holding a warm lump of dog shit in your plastic covered hand, but trust me, this will save you some work.... Continue reading
There Was An Old Woman Who Bathed In a Shoe
I can understand poverty. I’m a two-bit blogger who lives in public housing. But what I can’t understand is why a woman with so many children that she apparently “didn’t know what to do” with all of them, would live in a damn shoe. Couldn’t she find something that was a little less likely to cause her children to get athlete’s foot on their face? As usual, I digress. The Shoe Bathtub, designed by SICIS, is pretty much where you’d... Continue reading

Planet Vans
Found on It’s Nice That, this shoe looks like boatloads of fun. Gives the classic slip-on Vans a new meaning, eh? Link
Shoe Vending Machine Is Sex And The City Girls’ Wet Dream
We’ve seen vending machines which offer everything from iPod’s to human services, but what about something more attuned to our fashion sense. And by our, I mean you women (gotta watch my macho allure.) To introduce their new sneaker, Japanese branded Onitsuka Tiger is offering their Trainer from vending machines around Japan. This is a concept just dying to run rampant across the streets of NYC, where girl’s who emulate the characters from Sex And The City are known to... Continue reading
Credit card sized shoe-horn in your wallet
Not a lot of people use shoe horns nowadays, a lot of people don’t even know how to use one (they don’t have to). Supposedly they’re invented in the 15th century, it’s a tool (first class lever) that holds the end of the shoe open for your heel to slide in more easily and smoothly. The Japanese use shoe horns pretty stringently, as it’s common practice to take of their shoes whenever they’re in house (same for a lot of... Continue reading
YOUniverse Funk Fone stomps the competition with a 6″ platform
Unless you have a pre-teen daughter, this YOUniverse Funk Fone should never been seen in your posession. So what part is the “Fone”? The shoe. Just lift it off of the massive platform base, and you have a fully functioning phone that belongs more in a “gentlemen’s club” than your daughters bedroom. So apart from the major problem of a company called YOUniverse (can we get more self-centered?), this Funk Fone only costs $20. Please don’t let this low cost... Continue reading
Shimadzu sweat dryer, odor remover plus germ killer for your shoes
You know how leather shoes cannot be dumped into washing machines together with your trainers (if you do), and when leather stink, they just have to stink forever. You might have tried spraying deodorant at your shoes and leaving them in the sun hoping to kill some germs. Well, a Japanese company Shimadzu Science might just have the answer for you. Now with this fairly compact (331x320x435mm 4kg) and fairly affordable ($187) “shine and clean” (Hikari de Kirei) machine you... Continue reading
