NEON ELECTRIC SHOE “FUTURISTIC CONCEPT”







This neon shoe was made with a 3D printer, Its design features urban Japanese icons as well as city names in honor of the Asics sub-brand Onitsuka Tiger. Modeled after the city of Tokyo, the 1-meter (~3 foot) long featured the neon skyline, congested highways, and teeming rolls of signages. The sculpture also paid homage to Japanese sub-culture, such as Godzilla, with its inclusion. LED lights and neon band further assist in the sculpture’s completion. Totally 21st Century! This could pose a challenge to the all shoe industry players to take this futuristic concept to a reality. Or just may be there are big shoe companies already cooking up something similar to this cool idea. Just Can’t wait to see that happen.
