PowerSpurz is Reflective Running Gear for Your Shoes

— May 16, 2014 — Lifestyle
Reflecting running gear commonly comes in the form of clothing. Unfortunately, after a few washes, the reflective materials wears off and is not as effective. If you are a committed runner, you run whenever you have the chance -- be it morning, noon or night. Nighttime joggers need to keep themselves safe from oncoming vehicles that may not spot them. The most effective way to do so is by donning a pair of these PowerSpurz.

The illuminated shoe attachments allow runners or walkers to be easily spotted by anyone in their area. They clip right on the heel of any shoe tightly, but can also be easily taken off and adjusted accordingly. They are lightweight and waterproof too, so they won't impede your expedition.
Trend Themes
1. Reflective Footwear - The trend of incorporating reflective materials into footwear for enhanced visibility during nighttime activities presents opportunities for innovative product design and safety solutions.
2. Clip-on Attachments - The growing popularity of clip-on shoe accessories like PowerSpurz opens up possibilities for creating customizable and interchangeable fashion accessories for shoes.
3. Wearable Safety Gear - The increasing demand for wearable safety gear for outdoor enthusiasts creates opportunities for developing innovative products that combine style, functionality, and visibility.
Industry Implications
1. Sporting Goods - The sporting goods industry can capitalize on the Reflective Footwear trend by developing new lines of shoes that prioritize visibility and safety for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts.
2. Fashion Accessories - The fashion accessories industry can tap into the Clip-On Attachments trend by creating a range of eye-catching and customizable shoe accessories that allow individuals to express their style and enhance their visibility.
3. Outdoor Recreation - The outdoor recreation industry can seize the opportunity presented by the Wearable Safety Gear trend to create innovative safety-oriented products such as illuminated clothing, reflective gear, and other visibility-enhancing accessories.
