If you're into running as a hobby, you may make use of a pedometer to count your steps or a stop watch to time your laps. Your probably also have a swanky pair of sneakers to keep your feet safe from all of the abuse. But I ask you, just how fancy are those sneaks? These Adidas Micropacer shoes probably top yours, what with a microcomputer built into the tongue.

Micropacers first came out in 1984 and feature an included range finder, pedometer and stop watch right on the shoe. They're relaunching now in this attractive Venice Carnival Edition in a curious homage to the festival of masks, and have a simple black and white color scheme. So now you can let your shoes do all the work for you, counting your steps and keeping track of your time.

Adidas Micropacers sell for $250, which, come to think of it, is more than I've spent on shoes in the last decade or two.
