Shoe that Lights Up

And no, I don’t mean smoking. The Pioneer shoe is one footwear that works great when worn long after the sun has gone down, since it converts mechanical movement and energy from walking into electric power. Electricity is harvested and stored in a battery located at the shoe’s sole, and can be used to light up a bulb integrated into the shoe’s sole so that you will be able to have a better idea of where and what you’re walking into without having to lug around and additional flashlight. The internal battery is said to last for up to 12 hours when fully charged, and it won’t suffer any circuit breaks since the Pioneer shoe comes with a waterproof surface and sole.
