Luckily for humanity, these “social network sneakers” are concepts. For now. I fear there’s no fail whale in existence that will be big enough to stop the slobbering social media masses from demanding these be created via a “Like” page.

Facebook and Twitter concepts are currently available to view, with no word, thankfully, of a retail version.

The MySpace ones don’t exist yet, but you could probably create your own by scratching out Facebook and writing in MySpace with a pen.

Seems that’s what’s happening in real life anyway. [Buzzfeed via Geekologie]

    I think I threw up in my mouth… I thought the Star Wars limited editions were awful but these have rendered me speechless.

    the myspace ones would have to seem cool but only from a distance and be somewhat socially awkward.

    Maybe they would have the curves for your feet in opposite directions, so it always felt like you were wearing the shoe on the wrong foot.

    I’m half waiting to hear the announcement that Zuckerberg has patched it so it automatically tells the whole world in screaming detail exactly where you are, who’s shoes they’re parked beside and what they can see up. Every individual message will give you 0.4seconds to opt out in a complex and technical procedure hidden deep in the settings, only if you ctrl-click the invisible pi symbol hidden away on the page.

      I’m waiting for people to realise ‘oh, hey, I can just… NOT use Facebook!’.

        Only reason I ever connected to Facebook was to stop all the invites I was being emailed. Only reason I’m still stuck on it is my classes seem to use it for their group projects. I’ll be glad to see that back of facebook.
