'''High Speed''' is a speed power-up found in the ''{{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}'' franchise, where the power-up is also referred to as '''Power Sneakers''', that resembles one of [[Sonic]]'s shoes. High Speed frequently appears as an item in the ''[[Mario & Sonic (series)|Mario & Sonic]]'' series, where it functions the same way as it does in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' franchise, temporarily boosting the user's speed.

In the [[Wii]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)|version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'', High Speed only appears in [[Dream Race (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Race]], as one of eight items to be obtained from [[Item Box]]es. In the [[Nintendo DS]] [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Nintendo DS)|version]], High Speed appears in [[Dream Long Jump (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games)|Dream Long Jump]], where they are instead referred to as '''Speed Boost'''.

This item has a different appearance compared to how it appeared in prior ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' titles, having a rounded nose instead of a pointed one, taller socks, and a thin stripe with a small buckle. Due to this, the item now bears a slight resemblance to [[Mario|Mario's]] shoes as well.

High Speed returns as an item in [[Dream Event]]s for both versions of ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games'', now under the name '''High Speed Shoes'''. High Speed Shoes appear as an item in every Dream Event except for [[Dream Figure Skating]] in the Wii [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)|version]], while in the Nintendo DS [[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)|version]], High Speed Shoes only appear in [[Fever Hockey]] and [[Rocket Ski Jumping]].

While the High Speed Shoes retain its appearance from the prior ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'' title in the Nintendo DS version, the Wii version has changed it back to its usual appearance in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' franchise. The render in particular appears to be based on the Power Sneakers' sprite of ''Sonic Heroes'' but with modern shading. When used, the High Speed Shoes will also play the Power Sneakers' theme in ''Sonic Adventure'', "Hey You! It's Time to Speed Up!!!", not unlike how the [[Super Star]] plays its own [[Invincibility BGM|invincibility theme]].
