One of my goals in life is to, someday, have everything I wear be a gadget of some sort. Thanks to Columbia's new Bugathermo boots (Gizmodo) I am now one step (or rather, two steps) closer to that dream. Basically, the Bugathermo boots use rechargeable batteries to power tiny heaters inside each boot.
The batteries are good for 4-8 hours of warm feet, and you can adjust the heat settings via side-mounted LED display. I can't vouch for the quality of these boots, but they certainly look solid. The Bugathermo boots have a cool design, and the ankle LEDs make them look like something out of a William Gibson novel.
If you're interested in trying a pair out, you can buy them for just $250. That's about what you'd expect to pay for a very nice pair of Asolo's or Lowa's. I'm not sure if these boots are near that level of quality, but you're welcome to check out their website here for more information.
