2018-03-06
how do I feel about wearing something like this I feel emotionally insecure about wearing these what has Pizza Hut's name in his in pizza shoes you may have no idea of this but Pizza Hut made a limited run of shoes last year that ordered pizza with the press of a button it was like an Amazon - button for your feet it was a publicity stunt and that stunt is back with I Tops - Pizza Hut's making only 250 pairs of these fifty of which will be sold others given away so what do they do they order Pizza Hut pizzas and now they pause live TV I look at wearable tech I thought I'd give them a try I'm not really a sneaker head in fact I'm wearing sketcher shoes that's usually what I wear every day these are PI top - so I don't know how they compare against other high tops they look really red and they're smart shoes I'm gonna try them on my size 11 super wide feet yeah I don't even know how to tie shoes well feel this feeling thick let's kick my other shoes away they feel okay I mean the look is growing on me I like them they are they are probably more stylish than the average shoes that I wear which is not saying very much they feel they feel good they feel good there's like a lot of a lot of shoe there any things are absurd PI tops to come in all red or wheat and read their tech is in the tons basically velcro pockets where the tech is hiding took off the adhesive one side has a flick smart button that pairs via bluetooth to a Pizza Hut high-tops app on phones and will auto order pizza when you set it up with a single click double click or click and hold I wasn't able to reprogram it but there is a flick button that exists it's an actual product that can be used to control other things like smart home controls the other side has an IR blaster like one of those novelty key chains when it's near a supported cable box with DVR it pauses TV automatically that's it no extra program functions no volume or on/off or channel controls only certain cable box DVRs work and be patient it takes a few seconds lo and behold things are getting more into it now that did it no no we're public some people love the look of the shoes I felt a little less confident its conversation starter hey what's up right now they're the easily the most interesting thing about me so they have dominated my my look at this point there's like two reasons why you I guess you'd even be interested in shoes like this which I wouldn't be but one is that further smart features maybe which are kind of at and the other is the the crazy look maybe that there Pizza Hut branded which they're not that over-the-top it could be worse right it could be a Pizza Hut jacket the issues are an absurd publicity stunt that's being used to sell pizza time to basketball tournaments but imagine if this were used in other ways technically the idea of Smart buttons and shoes could do all sorts of things maybe you could turn on lights or maybe you could use it to ping for an alert in fact you could put all sorts of smart buttons into these shoes in those pockets it's just that they're customized right now so smart shoes are here the question is where they're gonna go next today Pizza ordering TV pausing shoes tomorrow Pizza ordering TV pausing shoes they can turn on your lights dream big no it's definitely cold down
