A few weeks back we posted about a homemade pair of Back to the Future II style sneakers which were controlled through an Arduino microcontroller. The premise was good and so was the effort, but the motor on the back of the shoes was just too much of an eyesore to be practical. But we might be seeing a much prettier version, a version you won’t be ashamed to show off for your friends, sometime soon. Nike has patented the... Continue reading

These are the first pair of shoes that make me want to shout “I AM A GOLDEN GOD!” from the rooftops. And for a guy who’s worn shoes made out of acid sheets, that’s saying quite a lot. Adidas’s new leather Wings 2.0 shoes by Jeremy Scott are designed to not merely empower, but to look awesome. White man can’t jump, but can he fly? These new kicks will drop on the Adidas Originals website on August 10. Link [via]

Even if these shoes didn’t tweet, they’d be awesome just for the fact that they brand the image of the Twitter bird. I love that little guy. But factor in that these Rambler shoes actually send a wireless signal via Bluetooth, listing data about your walking speed and pressure, through your mobile phone and straight to your Twitter feed, and you’ve got a really techy pair of geek sneakers on your hands. Or on your feet rather. Not that anyone... Continue reading

If your shoes offer better performance than your home computer, you know you’re in the presence of something special. These Blaze Pentium 1.0 Sneakers probably have a better processing speed than my PC. Designed by Gabriel Dishaw, these 15 pound shoes took three weeks to perfect. The Intel Pentium-inspired sneakers are currently for sale and are shipped with an equally awesome carrying case.

This is some extreme papercrafting. David Brownings created these pretty realistic-looking kicks using nothing but colored paper. I’d actually rock them if I knew they’d last longer than a few steps.

Time to retire your old Chuck Taylors. There is finally a worthy high-top successor. Handpainted by Rachelle Williams of ParadoxArtistry, these Super Mario Sneakers feature all of your favorite Mario characters, custom crafted onto a pair of high-tops. These are so awesome it hurts. $160 will snag you a pair of these sneaks or you can choose from a butt load of other awesome shoes offered on their Etsy store. They are even taking orders for custom sneakers. I’ll take... Continue reading

I can’t be too sure whether these are women’s exclusive or if dudes can rock these bad boys as well. I don’t care how queer it might sound, I would totally rock a pair of these. I’d rock them like a hurricane. I’d rock them like a lobster. I’d rock them like Zeppelin. You get the point? Even if they were only woman sizes, I’d get a size 15 pretend and I didn’t know. If rocking these Wonder Woman Reeboks... Continue reading

Some people get really overly excited about their shoes. I mean, yeah, we love our cool shoes over here at Gearfuse, but not quite this much. The Shine Rack allows shoe fans to show off their finest pairs of kicks right on their wall. It’s sort of like a wine rack, but with less wine and more foot fungus. Each rack carries one pair of sneakers, so if you are a real sneaker freak, you might have to buy a... Continue reading
