Dada Code M




This is a sneaker and yes, those are built in speakers sewn into the side that will pump your latest theme song for all to hear as you walk down the boulevard. You too can strut to the sounds of your own theme music. The Code M can either play music through the speakers or to a wireless headphone. Dada claims a 30 foot radius for the wireless, if that is not enough the shiny silver surface just screams pay attention to me. Hey, it's a safety thing! You want speeding cars and airplanes to be able to see you at night.

Just toss a mobile caller into it and you have Maxwell Smart's shoe phone. Don't laugh, the wireless headset can be programmed to take calls from your existing cell phone, so the folks at Dada thought about this. The Dada Code M loads tunes via the USB port (that cable in the photo), which also recharges the device/footwear. The controls are in the tongue of the shoe and Dada claims the Code M will play 6 hours on a single charge. The company says the Code M holds 100 songs, which probably means it holds a very skimpy 256K of memory.
