Skechers has decided that shoes just aren’t enough fun. So at CES the company unveiled a sneaker that has the classic 1978 game Simon integrated into the footwear. In the 37 years since the memory game was introduced, Simon has gone from Frisbee size (running off of 2 D cell batteries and a 9-volt) to being able to be integrated comfortably into the side of a pair of shoes. Unfortunately for those of us who get easily bored commuting on the train, the shoes are only available in kid sizes for the time being. The boys version of the sneaker includes the original version of Simon while the girls version trades out the classic buttons and layout for 2 rows of flower shaped buttons. Expect to find the Simon Skechers on shelves in February for $65.
