Solar-Powered Sneaks


Maybe you could say I love shoes...here's another post about them, only this time they are solar powered. Simply buy the Solar Street Light Kit from Lost Values and fling your old pair in a nearby tree to light up the night. There are two sizes for the kit-kid and adult. It comes with either white or colored lights and can be quickly and easily assembled. A single adult shoe kit is twelve euros, which isn't too expensive. The idea was originally from an exhibition by Lost Values, the Swedish design firm and was inspired by shoes hanging from overhead cables. It may sound silly, but I would actually buy this and display an old pair of my shoes. I like how personalized the idea is. It is imaginative and original. When thinking about it a little further, it could also become useful in certain situations. The shoes would be great for camping or any need for an outdoor light. They could also be displayed in a fitting indoor environment.
