How often have we seen little kids with light-up shoes and, smiling, thought how fun it would be to have a pair? Now, Pop Shoes have made it possible with their debut line of line up sneakers, for adults!
Based in Montreal, Pop Shoes brings an inventive approach to the footwear market, combining fashion with innovative design to create a versatile, rechargeable light-up sneaker for both adults and kids. Each style is made with premium materials and LED lights in the sole of the shoe with three light-up settings; fast flash, slow flash and continuous lights. Unlike other brands of light-up sneaks, POP Shoes have the option to turn the LED lights on and off, so they can be worn all day, every day, saving the light for that “pop” of light when you want to make an impression.
“Our goal is to revamp the sneaker industry one step at a time.” says POP Shoes Chief Operating Officer, Vanessa Ades. “POP Shoes was born with a vision to create quality sneakers that are anything but ordinary while being easily accessible to an international market.”
The styles in POP Shoes’ debut Spring/Summer 2016 collection combine timeless footwear silhouettes with futuristic design elements; low-tops, high-tops, platforms or chukka sneakers bring the FUNction to the fashion. The colourways are equally as fun as the shoes; Pink Fizz, Gold Digger, Lilac, Black Licorice and White Chiclet provide the strong visuals you’d expect from the unique sneaker. The eight hour rechargeable battery in the shoes, recharged by a hidden micro-USB port in the shoe, has been thoroughly tested to ensure safety, even the exposed to water (although it’s not recommended)
