It is now possible to get your kicks from the crafty trainers vending machine, created by Japanese sports fashion brand, Onitsuka Tiger.
It will be as easy as getting hold of a chocolate bar or a can of coke, as well as being the most convenient way to ensure your feet look good at all times. The latest advance in sneaker shopping comes after months of arduous design work by the Onitsuka Tiger team. The machine can vend 24 pairs of trainers at any one time, in any of 6 sizes.
The trainer vending machine will be stationed just off Carnaby Street for three days only at the Onitsuka Tiger store. All trainers from the vending machine will be given away – so you don’t need to put your hand in your pocket at all.
After making a star appearance in London, the vending machine will then embark on a national tour, starting in Manchester.
Penny Keen, Onitsuka Tiger Brand Manager commented: “We hope trainer fans love our latest creation as much as we do and enjoy the latest and most innovative way to buy their Tiger Feet. Onitsuka Tiger prides itself on its heritage, so taking inspiration from modern day Japanese vending machines (which vend anything from eggs to loo rolls) seemed like the perfect next step for the brand. It’s satisfying knowing that we’re the first in the world to do it and we can’t wait to take it to Onitsuka Tiger fans across the UK.”
