Coming from MSTRPLN and Philly’s sneaker boutique, UBIQ is a pair of Dunks that can detect WIFI hot spots anywhere its owner walks. The sneakers are called, A Step in the Right Direction, or ASRD in short. From a first glance, I thought of the Micropacers and/or the works of Sabatoge. Most, if not all sneaker heads must think I’m crazy for the latter comparison. The reference to SBTG is mainly due to the stealthy facade and militant like emblem. With the ASRD sneakers, owners of the IPOD touch can now get connectivity wherever a hot spot is detected. With no release date or price disclosed, expect to pay a lot of guape. Off topic, another glance made me think of Darth Vader’s gauntlet.
