If you've ever started stumbling home from the bar and been so drunk you didn't know how to get home, these GPS wingtip shoes from British artist/designer Dominic Wilcox are the perfect invention. Wilcox created the shoes (which have little arrows on them, of course) at the request of the nonprofit Global Footprint Project. The shoes contain GPS technology, which syncs up with a computer. The left shoe points you home, while the right one keeps track of how you're doing.

What's the over/under on Kanye West wearing these?
