The Skechers Damager for Boys Includes Built-In Entertainment
Laura McQuarrie — January 7, 2015 — Tech
As well as providing support for feet during playtime at recess, Skechers' Damager 'Game Kicks' for boys are a source of entertainment in themselves. The colorful slip-on sneakers have vivid patterning on them, which is part of the game that kids can play on it. Complete with lights and sounds, the sneakers challenge kids to games of pattern match, played out on the sides of the sneakers with light-up colored buttons. Like a handheld gaming console, the sneakers are also equipped with a reset button and controls to turn the sounds on and off, which parents will be able to appreciate.
Other design features of the interactive shoe include a comfortably cushioned insole and a durable shock-absorbing sole. This two-in-one Damager shoe and toy combination is available from Skechers for $65.
