Kinetic Running Shoes with Headlights
April 3rd, 2008
The Pioneer is a concept running shoe that coverts kinetic energy produced while running or walking into electrical energy. There’s a tiny battery that charges up with each step that can keep the headlights shining for a full 12 hours straight dispersing the light upto 1.5 meters ahead.
Although the aesthetic design seems quite simple, it’s purposeful. The material is waterproof but breathes. The sole is solid rubber to absorb shock and also shields your foot from weird electrical happenings.
