How did the backlit sneakers appear?

Recently there has been a significant breakthrough in the field of led technology. (based on the use of LED radiation), which have found application in different areas of life. Of course, the fashion industry did not stand aside. Designer shoes Yifan Wan (brand Simulation) impressed by the film "Step Up 3D" released original backlit sneakers. This thing, of course, instantly received recognition among the youth.

What are they called and how do they look?

These unusual sneakers (they are also called LED or sneakers with lights) will not allow their owner to go unnoticed wherever he is: on a walk or in a nightclub, in the gym or at a dance party. Such models look particularly impressive in the dark, and the combination of seven luminous colors makes them versatile in terms of compatibility with other things. The LED model is able to make a bright dominant of many outfits, combining not only with sportswear.

Glowing sneakers are indispensable if you like to make sports jogs in the eveningsso that you are noticeable to car drivers. But this does not mean that during the day they look like ordinary shoes. Even after a short stay in the sun, they will glow when you enter the room, just not as bright as in the evening.

As for the children's models, they are beneficial in that the baby will not be capricious during the gatherings on the street: the bright elements will surely interest him.

The principle of operation and characteristics

Let's briefly consider how the backlight mechanism works. In the sole of sneakers is a small battery with LEDs, and the contacts and light bulbs are protected from moisture and possible shocks. Interestingly, thanks to modern technology, this whole structure is not felt at all by the foot.

Over time, the brightness of the glow decreases (the backlight is designed for an average of 6 hours), this can be corrected by recharging the battery using the USB cable that comes with the shoes. It takes about 2.5 hours to fully charge the battery.

Backlight mode can be changedBy choosing with the help of a small button inside the shoe one of the seven colors. As an option - you can leave the automatic mode (the colors alternate each other)

By the way, if you are tired of the lights, you can always turn it off and your sneakers will look like the most ordinary model.

It should be noted that the LED sneakers do not need any special care and do not deteriorate if they are worn in rainy weather, since the luminous coating is not afraid of moisture. This footwear is absolutely safe for health, including for children.

Fashion models

Glowing sneakers are presented by adult, teenage and children's models.

Options for kids often have additional musical accompaniment - in addition to the glow emit funny sounds when walking. Parents always know where their baby is.

Developed models specifically for boys and girls. Options for the smallest should certainly be equipped with an orthopedic insole.

It should be noted that the LED sneakers due to the presence in the sole of the luminous elements (and sometimes also sounding), do not have the necessary rigidity. For this reason Experts advise not to wear these shoes for a long time..

Buying a child with backlit shoes should be a special shoe shops, but not on the market, so as not to harm children's health.

An interesting and useful children's version of sneakers - LED models on wheels. Such shoes remarkably develop coordination of movements, in addition, many groups of muscles are involved in skating. The important advantage of roller sneakers lies in the fact that the child can not remove them when he comes into the room. If desired, the wheels can be hidden in the recess on the sole, turning them into the most ordinary shoes. And the most pleasant thing that makes the sneakers with wheels popular is a very fast adaptation: every child can ride them after a 10-minute workout.

As for the adult options, the most popular sports products with lighting on the sole. However, there are other luminous elements: laces, emblems, various inserts. There are more expensive sneakers that glow in the dark entirely.

As for the luminous laces, they are made of a special light-conducting material, similar to flexible plastic, which is slightly stretched, but not deformed. Such laces are easy to bend and tied in a knot. They shine due to the LEDs that form the directed rays. For a uniform luminescence, correct lacing is necessary (without kinks and excessive tightening).

Fashionable youth backlit sneakers are often distinguished by their original design: models with wings or on the platform (which also glows).

Color and print

The color of the backlight may be different - Everyone will be able to choose a variant of lime or yellow, pink or blue and many other colors. Available in noble silver and gold. This effect looks most advantageous on white sneakers. There are models where the sole glows with a multitude of shades (more than ten).

Children's shoes please parents and kids with a huge assortment of colors.

Dimensions

Of particular importance is the correct size of fashionable sneakers. As is known, each manufacturer has its own dimensional grid. And the problem is that often the sizes of different firms do not match. For this reason, there are special correspondence tables for shoe sizes, where you can, for example, convert a European size to an American one. To do this, you need to know how many centimeters your foot makes.

Sneakers of the wrong size can cause health problems., especially for athletes. Among the unpleasant consequences - bulging bones, ugly bumps, ingrown nails, calluses on the foot. In addition, there may be an imbalance of muscle load, which already entails problems with the joints.

According to experts, when you pick up sneakers, you need to take into account that in the process of running the foot a little “runs out” to the sides, so it’s better to buy a more spacious model.
