Here’s something you don’t see everyday: Sneakers with headlights. Designed by Feijun Chen & Bin Zhao, the concept Pioneer shoes come with built-in kinetic-recharging headlights, so you don’t have to fear getting lost in the dark during your next midnight jogging session. The only problem I see with these is that while wearing them, you’ll probably be increasing your chance of getting mugged by about 500%.
