If there ever was a marketing gimmick with fashion tech undertones to beat, Jimmy Choo’s Voyager boots would win hands down. Just in time for those pesky Christmas Gift Guides, the shoe brand has debuted smart boots with heated insoles. Hoping to change the game, the boots could easily make Vogue’s must-have luxury item whilst at the same time tempt the fashion tribe to add them as a staple wardrobe must-have.
