Introducing Facebook Shoes
Privacy is so last season. And Scottish designer Gerry Mckay has the perfect footwear to ring in an oversharey 2011: Adidas trainers touting social network affiliations.
Working independently in Glasgow, Mckey dreamed up concept designs for Adidas Facebook and Adidas Twitter shoes, both keying off the brand's iconic Superstar design, now nearly 40 years old.
"Facebook as a brand is increasing on the rise," Mckay writes. But with half a billion members it's hardly a mark that makes a personal statement.
Try adding some usernames. Facebook shoes might be absurd, but "joeblow@Facebook.com" shoes are just ridiculous enough to be irresistible, at least to a certain segment of the population.
