The days of crowds gathering and lines forming the day a sought-after product is released could soon be a thing of the past, for Adidas has released what could be the footwear industry's first sneaker reservation app.

Rather than muscling your way amidst throngs of enemy shoppers, getting those hot new shoes has come down to activating your push notifications, and acting fast when one comes in announcing that the reservation period will begin.

When this golden moment occurs, open the app -- called Adidas Confirmed -- and select your shoes and size.

It's not a done deal until you get a confirmation of your reservation, upon which you'll be instructed where you can pick them up and a timeframe during which you may do so.

For the time being, sneaker reservation is only available in New York City.
Users should take care to activate location services and push notifications upon downloading the app, which is available for free on iOS and Android devices.
