Blurred Feet are slip over shoes that make your feet
appear to be totally blurred.
They’re made from a milky coloured type of rubbery
plastic that has been infused with tiny air bubbles which
grow denser towards the central core area. This has the
effect of blurring the appearance of the
feet, but fading
out towards total transparency at the outside defining
edge. The net effect is that the feet appear to simply blur
out completely where they meet the ground.
Blurred Feet have no practical use, beyond looking cool,
and causing total confusion in those who encounter you
wearing them as you drift along, a perfect mystery in
perfect motion.

This is a laudable idea. Can the shoes not also have small
clouds of dust, forever trapped in a transparent resin
extension? |
|
| |
The resin needs to be extremely flexible, or the dust will be seen to move in a way that makes it look like a solid object. An alternative may be a small dust hopper and a fan or a smoke machine that makes heavy particles, to actually put out a little bit of dust. |

Instead of resin, what about aerogel ? |
|
| |
My vote is boots with constantly-moving Moire patterns just below
the surface |
|
| |
Ooh, Moire lines built into the soft clear polymer; as you
move, the rubber will flex, causing the lines to shift slightly,
changing the resulting pattern. That's almost worth it's own
post, [sninctown]. |

And so obscuring the view of those foot
recognition cameras..I like it |
