Hoverboard Shoes – LED Light Up Sneakers


Hoverboard Shoes - LED Light Up Sneakers

So you’re interested in the latest fashion trend among hoverboard riders? Just saying the name hoverboard shoes sounds cool and these LED sneakers look awesome on your feet. No, they don’t hover off the ground (wouldn’t that be amazing?!), but these light up sneakers look slick whether you’re riding your 2 wheel electric scooter in the park or heading to your next class.

This trend started with a pair of $500 hoverboard shoes called Simulation by designers Yifang Wan and Samuel Yang. They were plain white sneakers featuring a row of LED lights around the sole of the shoes. What makes these unique from the light up sneakers you remember from your childhood is that instead of flashing when you take a step, these lights are programmable. They can appear in several colors and different flashing combinations. Plus, you can turn them off when you don’t want to draw attention–like while shopping at a grocery store.

While they’re called hoverboard shoes, they’re not unique to hoverboarders. Anyone can wear these fun and trendy shoes, especially since there’s plenty of options available on the market and the price has dropped to a more reasonable level. They are especially popular with dancers and entertainers because they look amazing with the right choreography. Runners also enjoy the visibility these shoes give during their morning or evening jog. And, of course, they’re a great option for hoverboarders who want to look cool while riding or add some additional safety lights to their hoverboard. Whatever your interest in hoverboard shoes, we’ve rounded up the best hoverboard shoes available to consumers. We took into account price, customer response, and features to help you find the perfect pair of kicks.
