Here are a pair of shoes that have nothing to do with fitness, function, or even style. They serve the sole purpose of ordering pizza and pausing your TV. Obviously, they were manufactured by a massive pizza chain, of course (vide above).
Last year Pizza Hut had launched Pie Tops (bottom) to order pizza at a press of a button – from your shoe. So they had to up their game this year. Which is why, perhaps, they have come up with Pie Tops II (above), the limited edition sneakers that can not only order pizza, but can also pause your TV so you can collect your order when the doorbell rings.
The tongues of the shoes come with buttons that operate these two functions. One button on one shoe orders the pizza, and the other pauses your TV. Both are connected via Bluetooth to the Pizza Hut app on the user’s phone.
