Have you ever wanted to combine your love for fashion with the practicality of pedal pushing technology? Well look no further, as Converse has done exactly that.
The Chuck Taylor All Wah trainer features, as the name suggests, a built-in wah pedal and was created by Critical Mass. A prototype was released in 2013, but now it is live in the flesh.
It uses micro-sensory technology to track the movements of the shoe’s sole and bluetooth (a man’s best friend) to connect to the pedal and transfer to music. It is even compatible with amps, Mac software and iPhones.
Robots are indeed taking over, but at least they are doing it with style.
Take a look at the promotional video below.
