Why tots gotta have all the fun?
I swear some older folks with demetia had them because their families got it for them. I mean maybe they just fit a large kids size or something.
There are some with illuminated soles.
They just arent blinky.
Oh and they are most likely to be found in specialty shops or online.
They do exist. A friend of mine has pairs for his whole family.
Yes, Heelies too.
They sell adult heelies
But do they sell adult heelys with lights in the sole?
Can we have lights in the wheel too?
Police departments should make it part of the uniform. Because when a foot pursuit ensues, they are flashing red & blue on their own heels.
i would go feral if i could have light up sketchers in adult sizes GIMME PLEEEEASE
I’m going with “no”, because it’s a shit product for the environment when you have batteries and electronics fitted into rubber. If the battery runs out, the electronic breaks or the rubber wears out, the entire product is likely to be discarded and burned together.
If you want to attach small lights to your shoes, go ahead. You can then also transfer the lights to your next pair of shoes, change the battery and repair or discard of everything separately.
I don’t have light-up shoes, but I have lights for when I go for a run in the dark. They use a floating magnet that creates small electrical charges, strong enough to make a pair of LEDs flash, with every step. Installing those inside shoes would be a good idea.
This could satisfy environmental concerns, but I personally am not sold on the comfort angle of the solution.
There is an easy solution to that. The internal pad, where the toe sits on, could be removable. This way, both the battery can be replaceable, and the electronics board.
Another idea, could be to implement wireless charging for the lights, since it’s not easy to fit a charging port on a shoe.
Yes. Full stop.
no but if you want to make some i know people
I just made a post about camel nutsack and now I see you. Do you want some Crushbone belts?
I don’t know what that is but it camel nut sack sounds pretty good
My original comment was about Canloe Nusback in a thread about how RPG players will often call NPC’s silly names; in this case, Camel Nutsack. The NPC in question accepted belts from a nearby faction (Crushbone) as a quest item. Since he accepted unlimited numbers of them he was often used to grind.
The first time I explained this to anyone in game, I said he was affectionately referred to by his nickname and someone responded that they didn’t want to get affectionate with a nutsack.
If we’re going down this rabbit hole, shoes with lights is pretty far down on the list of child-oriented products that should be made for adults.
Other potential entries include:
- Clothes with dinosaur/unicorn/etc designs
- Bouncy castles
- Bedding and sheets with fun prints
Inflatable dinosaur costumes(we figured this one out already)
Exists:
Clothes with dinosaur/unicorn/etc designs
What do you mean?
Bedding and sheets with fun prints
- Technically there’s no one and nothing stopping you from buying Pokemon bedding, for example.
Clothes with dinosaur/unicorn/etc designs
- Also, cute clothes have been trendy since MLP:FiM at the earliest.
Do they sell Pokémon bedding in king?
Haven’t bothered to look, they sell it in full-sized though.
I’ve been in a bouncy castle with kids and alone. It sucked and I was very tired.
Maybe if there were some full-size humans bouncing they would bounce me around too instead of me launching kids onto the roof.
Snow boots that change color in the cold. I had those as a toddler and they were the coolest things ever.
But you can get most of those things already. Shirts can be ordered with custom prints. You can rent (or buy) a bouncy castle and put it in your backyard. Beddings and sheets I get, because you can probably only find them in twin sizes.
Light-up shoes in adult sizes on the other hand are nearly impossible to find, or are pretty expensive if you find one.
Saw a kids sweater with a fuzzy dinosaur on it recently. Thought it would be amazing as an adult sweater. But of course it would cost $400 if it existed
There was an art show that had a bouncy castle for adults. I think that’s a thing
It is, there used to be a place around me that catered to adults for bouncy inflatable things.
$10 and some mushrooms and it was an amazing time.
I’m very interested in where you are sourcing this list!
I have two children and very few inhibitions.
I mean I got some removable reflectors for my ankles but I feel you
Yes. And we should have Heelies and soap shoes, too!
Only if we get the built in inline roller skates, too
Like 12 years ago a guy i knew from the edm scene in socal created exactly that with his company called electric styles and he’s still doing it.
Looks like they’re also on amazon, ebay etc
I was at a music festival about a week ago and there were several dozen people wearing these, they were kick ass
Amazing!
Only $35 is a bargain for those shoes so there must be a catch. For reference, I went to Burger King with my wife for lunch last week and it was $35 for just our two meals.
Yea good point. Their domain is abandoned so not sure what deal is any more. Last I heard is they were moving manufacturing from china to Mexico
Lights, yes.
Blinking or strobing lights, no
If you must have blinky lights, there should be something different than walking that sets off the blinking show.
something different that sets off the blinking show
It would amazing if we had an app that controls the shoe lights. I love needing an app for every single product/device I buy.
However, I can think of some use cases for “smart” RGB shoes
- Color sync for dancers
- Blinkers for scooters/bicycles
Probably easy to modify (for electrical engineers) to manufactured shoes
How about dancing
Well, it’s not walking. Dance mode, activate!
