Sneaker Scrubbing Blender (CES 2008)
What's this contraption containing two kids sneakers and murky water? A shoe cleaner, of course! This was one of many bizarre apparatuses unveiled at CES 2008 in Las Vegas this week.
It looks a lot like a blender, complete with dials, maybe even to control speeds.
The concept is great, and everyone has wished they could throw their new running shoes for a wash the first time they get muddy, but will people actually buy this odd gadget? We'll have to wait and see!
