If you liked Vans’ waffle sole iPhone case, check out XSories’ Sneaker Power Bank. Its 4200mAh battery is protected and decorated by a rubber outsole-like design. The design also conceals the battery’s LED indicators. The Sneaker Power Bank has two 5V/2.1A USB ports and comes with a charging cable with integrated microUSB, USB and 30-pin charging tips.

Initially, this case was created by Vans for promotional use only, but some enterprising bloggers managed to convince the company to release it to a wider audience.

The Nike Sole was designed to fit on Össur’s Flex-Run prosthetic running blade, which is used by competitive amputee athletes. That being said, I wonder if future robots will be using this technology to outrun their human prey?
