Nike Mars Yard shoe

US$385 (£247), tomsachs.com
The Nike Mars Yard shoes take geek chic out of this world, literally. Wearing materials from old NASA missions, your feet can take giant leaps for mankind on a daily basis. The soles are fashioned from the Nike special forces boot, while vectran fabric from the Mars Excursion Rover airbags and detailing from the Apollo lunar overshoes are used on the top. Yes they’re pricey but for a piece of space history – and ultimate geek cred – we reckon they’re worth it.
