Crazy Nike Sneakers Made From Recycled Circuit Boards [PICS]

014

This is one the coolest Nike shoes ever! Although it isn’t created or endorsed by the US-based sports giant, but at least it’s worth taking a look. Designed and created by junk-metal artist Gabriel Dishaw, the Blazer Pentium 1.0 Nike sneaker is made from recycled circuit boards and metal scraps. Not surprisingly, the sneaker weigh 15 pounds and has a height of 7 inch, width of 18 inch, and a depth of 13 inch.

“Using found objects from typewriters, adding machines and old computers, I take the items people no longer have use for and I carefully disassemble these items and then reassemble these together using metal wire creating my Junk Art,” explains the artist of his work. “I begin each sculpture with an idea of how can I take these found pieces of useless metal and insignificant objects and create something that everyone can understand and relate to.”

    There is so much here i could say. Are they upgradeable? If they make you run better can you over clock to get more speed? I wonder if there is any problem booting with them on? if you get hit with static electricity will you be unable to walk?.
    Would say they have the sole of the computer in them? .. are they PC or Mac ?
    Let hope they are running XP not Vista . If you go from XP to Win 7 will you have to get a new pair and start over?

    thank you thank you …
