XBOX Shoes?

A California based shoe artist has created a shoe based upon the Microsoft Xbox. These X-Box theme sneakers have a price tag of $2,500.

The custom shoes are handmade by Sole Junkie, a California based artist who specializes in customized speakers. Although given the expensive price tag, there is no Xbox interactivity, no hard drive, and no game controls. Instead, the Xbox logos light up thanks to embedded fiber optics and a hidden switch.

According to Sole Junkie's eBay auction, "These are an exclusive pair...only one of its kind. Patent leather back with embedded fiber optic wiring in the shape of the XBOX logo. Battery placement is in the tongue as well as on and off switch that has 2 settings: Strobe or Constant light functions. Gradient lime swoosh faded to black. The toe is painted in a surreal Tiger Camouflage with accents of lime and bright green. These are a men's size 11."
