Shoes with built in sat-nav !

Find your way home after a trip to the Rugby Club or Garveys.......

A PAIR of shoes with built-in satellite-navigation are set to revolutionise the way we find our way about town.

The trainers cost £129.95 and contain a GPS tracking chip that works just like the one in your car.

You simply type a postcode into the display on the tongue and the shoes will guide you there.

An LED light bubble on the tip of each foot acts as a visual guide showing whether to turn left, right or go straight ahead.

A loud beep signals if you've taken a step in the wrong direction.

There's also a waterproof speaker in the heel that can be activated to give proper voice details of where you're heading.

And the Sat Nav Shoes even hook up to a Bluetooth headset meaning you don't have to annoy passers-by with the monotone drone.

Droidwear, who make the gizmos, claims they'll put an end to fumbling through a map as you pound the streets.

They also cut the risk of bashing into a lamppost as you search for directions on your mobile phone.

Powered by two rechargeable AA batteries, which last up to 2.5 hours, they went on sale at Firebox.com this morning.
