At this very moment, I'm desperately wishing that I was in London to take part in the [Jimmy Choo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drest-x-jimmy-choo) Trainer Hunt. Set up just like a treasure hunt (but with the help of social media tools Foursquare, [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/createmybanner-1) and [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faxo)), luxury shoe hunters have a chance to find and keep some pretty sweet feet prizes.

By predominantly using Foursquare, the Jimmy Choo Trainer Hunt will be sending real-time venue hints to participants. Although this concept has been used before, never has a brand relied so heavily on social media as a way to spur on the hunt.
