Electric Light Shoes

OniTsuka Tigers With Mini City of Lights

The electric light shoes were designed for a Japanese footwear company, Onitsuka Tiger, by Freedom of Creation.

The shoe is 3 feet long and contains a miniature city inside, the stripes resemble streets and highways and tall building point out from the shoe's opening. The huge shoe is intended to communicate Onitsuka Tiger's Japanese roots.

I would love to see this thing, I mean it's not everyday you can see a 3 foot illuminating shoe
