Do you dream of being able to buy the latest YEEZY What have come on the market? Relax, there is nothing that augmented reality cannot solve. Wanna Kicks is an application for iOS that allows you to enjoy a small catalog of sports shoes so that you can try them on virtually and see how they look on you. And all without leaving home.
Wanna Kicks: A virtual sneaker fitting room for iOS
For now, the catalog offered by Wanna Kicks is rather brief, but it serves perfectly to give you an idea of How will some of your favorite sneakers look on you? at your feet. You will be able to find some model from New Balance, Nike, Adidas, Puma, Under Armour, Vans, Lidskie and Asics, and all you have to do is take off your shoes and point the camera at your feet for the magic of augmented reality to do its work.
In addition, most models offer different colors so you can try all kinds of combinations, however, the number of models available is quite limited, so don't expect to find the entire Nike catalog. The app works best completely barefoot, with or without socks, and in less than a second it will place the shoe on your foot so you can start to see yourself in them.
Great potential for shops
The idea is really good, and it could be of great help to many specialized stores, since it would allow the user to feel the product very close without making any prior purchase. For now, the shoes shown in the application take you to the official website of the manufacturer so that you can buy them if you wish, although it is not capable of calculating your size, something that would not be bad.

A company specialized in augmented reality
Wanna.by is a company that had previously launched other products related to augmented reality technology. Other of its well-known applications is Wanna Nails, a tool that allows you to try different colors of nail polishes sold on Amazon and AliExpress without having to buy them or repaint your nails for each test.
